Question 1:From the following test results, determine the voltage regulation of a 2000V, 1phase alternator delivering a current of 100 A at (i) unity p.f. (ii) 0.8 leading p.f. and (iii) 0.71 lagging p.f. Test results : Full-load current of 100 A is produced on short-circuit by a field excitation of 2.5A. An e.m.f. of 500 V is produced on open-circuit by the same excitation. The armature resistance is 0.8Ω. Question 2:3-phase, star-connected alternator is rated at 1600 kVA, 13,500 V. The armature resistance and synchronous reactance are 1.5 Ω and 30 Ω respectively per phase. Calculate the percentage regulation for a load of 1280 kW at 0.8 leading power factor.
