Two, 3phase alternators connected in parallel are driven by a hydraulic turbine whose speed- load characteristics are as follows: The speed of the first falls uniformly from 624 rpm at no load to 600 rpm at full load of 1200 kW. The speed of the second falls uniformly from 630 rpm at no load to 600 rpm at full load of 1200 kW. If the total load is 1200 kW at 0.8 lagging pf, determine the kW load of each alternator. Group of answer choices 400 kW and 800 kW

Question
Two, 3phase alternators
connected in parallel are driven by
a hydraulic turbine whose speed-
load characteristics are as follows:
The speed of the first falls
uniformly from 624 rpm at no load
to 600 rpm at full load of 1200 kW.
The speed of the second falls
uniformly from 630 rpm at no load
to 600 rpm at full load of 1200 kW.
If the total load is 1200 kW at 0.8
lagging pf, determine the kW load
of each alternator.
Group of answer choices
400 kW and 800 kW
555.6 kW and 644.4 kW
600 kW each
666.7 kW and 533 3 kW
