Question

A generator operating at 50 Hz delivers 1 pu power to an infinite busbar

through a network with negligible resistance. The maximum transferrable

power at pre-fault condition is 2.0 pu.

a) Calculate the load angle before the fault occurred

b) On the occurrence of fault, the power drops to 0.5 pu which reduces the

maximum power transferrable to 0.4 pu. After the clearance of the fault

the power rises to 1.5 pu. Calculate the following:

i)load angle after the fault has been cleared 

ii)load angle critical clearing angle 

iii)area of acceleration 

iv)area of deceleration 

Comment on your answers to iv) and v)
