A synchronous generator has been
synchronized to an infinite grid of 13.8 kV
and 60 Hz. The generator prime mover C/C
is such that the no-load frequency is 62.5
Hz and the power slope is 1 MW/Hz. The
AVR C/C (The reactive power against the
terminal voltage C/C) is such that the zero
reactive power voltage is 14.6 kV, while the
slope is 0.4 MVAR/kV. Calculate:
(a) the kVA loading of the generator and its
power factor.
(b) the settings of the prime mover and AVR
such that the generator delivers 3 MW at
0.85 lagging power factor.
If the load draws a current of 2727 A, in phase, from a generator, which of the following statement is true?
O A. The reactive power is flowing from generator to the load and the real power is flowing from the load to the generator.
O B. Since the current is in phase with the generator voltage, both the real and reactive power is flowing from the generator to the load.
O .Since the current is leading the generator, both the real and reactive power is flowing from the load to the generator.
O D. The real power is flowing from generator to the load and the reactive power is flowing from the load to the generator.
O E. None of the other choices are correct
two generators supplying a load.
Generator I has a no-load frequency
of 62.5 Hz and a slope Sp1 of I
MW/Hz. Generator 2 has a no-load
frequency of 62.0 Hz and a slope sp2
of I MW/Hz. The two generators are
supplying a real load totaling 2.5
MW at 0.8 PF lagging.
(a) At what frequency is this
system operating, and how
much power is supplied by
each of the two generators?
(b) Suppose an additional I-MW
load were attached to this
power system. What would
the new system frequency be,
