Question

A three phhase generator, connected via a 1000 MVA transformer to a 345kv circuit breaker and a 345kv transmission line. The three phase generator is 1000 MVA  20 kv and 60 hertz . The reactances of the generator are 

x''d=.14 p.u

x'd=.2 p,u

xd=1 p.u

The generators time constents 

t''d=0.5

t'd=0.05

ta=.1 seconds

transformer losses and exciting current are neglected, the transformer series reactance is .06 p.u 

At 3 pahse short circuit accurs on the line side of the circuit breaker when the generator is operated at rated terminate voltage and at no load. The breaker interrupts the fualt 3 cycles after fault inception neglect the effect of the tranformer on the generator time constants.
