Two shunt generators running parallel deliver a total current of 3,600 A. Each machine has a field resistance of 60 ohms and an armature resistance of 0.01 ohm. The emfs generated by each machine are 455 and 460 V, respectively. Calculate the kW share of each machine.
Synchronous Generator
In comparison to an asynchronous generator, it is a machine where the rotor speed is equal to the rotating magnetic field produced by the stator, i.e., mechanical speed is equal to the electrical speed, thus called synchronous, and not asynchronous.
Salient Pole Rotor
Salient pole rotor includes a large number of exposed poles mounted on a magnetic wheel. The construction of a bright pole is as shown in the image on the left. The proposed poles are made of metal laminations. The rotor winding is provided on these poles and is supported by pole shoes.
