Question

 synchronous generator with inertia constant, H, operates in steady state with steady
state rotor angle δ0 . The steam turbine delivers rated mechanical power Pm to the
generator. Following a three-phase short circuit fault at the generator terminals, the
generator’s rotor accelerated at the rate of π/6 rad/s2. The fault lasted t =Square root 2 s.

i) The maximum allowed increase in power angle during the fault that would
ensure generator stability is π/6 rad. Will the generator retain stability after the
fault clearing?
ii) Calculate the maximum electrical power that the generator can deliver to the
network.
