Maximum power transfer theorem

A resistive load will consume maximum power from a network when the load resistance is equal to the resistance of the network as viewed from the open-circuit terminals, with all energy sources removed leaving only the internal resistances. Physicist Moritz von Jacobi introduced the maximum power transfer theorem in 1940. Therefore, this theorem is also known as Jacobi's law.

A power station consists of two synchronous generators A & B of ratings 250 MVA and 500MVA with inertia 1.6 pu and 1.0 pu respectively on their own base MVA ratings. The equivalent pu inertia constant for the system on 100 MVA common base is:- (a) 2.6 (b) 0.615 (c) 1.625 (d) 9.0
A 100-MVA synchronous generator supplies 62.5 MVA of power at 0.8 lagging power factor. The reactance between the load and the generator is normally 1.0 pu, but it increases to 3.0 pu because of a sudden three-phase short circuit. The fault is subsequently cleared and the generator then supplies 43.75 MVA at 0.8 lagging power factor. Determine the critical clearing angle. Select one: a. 88.58 b. None c. 78.58 d 68.58
A synchronous generator runs at 250 rpm and generators at 60HZ. There are 240 slots each containing 5 conductors arranged in full-pitched winding for three-phase star connection.
