Two similar single phase alternators are operating in parallel. The armature winding resistance of each generator is 0.025 ohm and its synchronous reactance is 0.06 ohm. Calculate the angle between two equal voltages of 230 if the circulating current is 1,000 amperes.
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.
