Question
Q6) A three-phase synchronous generator
4.6-KV and 500-KVA and 60-HZ and 4 poles
with star connection Has synchronous
reactance Xc=1. 25pu
The relationship between output voltage and
generator excitation current is Ea = If / 7.5 pu
and the nominal excitation current is 15 A and
the generator with infinite grid is 4.6-KV
synchronous.
A) Measurements show that the armature
current and the excitation current are
approximately at their nominal values. Draw
the phasor diagram accurately and calculate
the active reactive power exchanged in the
network
B) If the active power exchanged in the
previous two parts is assumed to be infinite,
then the excitation current is reduced to 80% of
the nominal value. Draw the new phasor
diagram on the previous phase phasor
diagram and calculate the armature current
and the reactive power factor.
C) In part (b) at most what percentage can we
reduce the excitation current without the
machine going out of sync mode?
