Two 300kVA, 1000V, 50Hz alternators operating in parallel to supply
a load of 500KW at UPF. 60% of the load is supplied by the first generator.
If the terminal voltage and power supplied are kept constant always, then
changing the excitation to make pf=0.8 lagging. Find the generator
currents, power factors and total load current. (the generator and load are
single phase)

- If the load is connected to the generator thgrough an inductive line and the voltage at the load side is the same as the voltage at the terminals of the generator, which of the following must be true? O A. The reactive power is flowing from the generator to the load and from load to the generator at the same time. O B. The load is disconnected, and no power is delivered to the load. O C. The load has a poor power factor and it's absorbing too much reactive power. O D. None of the other choices are correct O E. The generator is unable to produce reactive power; therefore, the reactive power is flowing from the load to the generator.arrow_forwardA synchronous generator is rated 645 MVA, 24 kV, 0.9 pf lagging. It has a synchronous reactance 1.2 . The generator is feeding full load at 0.9 pf lagging at rated voltage. Calculate: (a) Excitation emf (E,) and power angle 8 (b) Reactive power drawn by the load Carry out calculations in pu form and convert the result to actual values.arrow_forwardA 1500KVA, 8KV, three-phase wye-connected alternator has an effective resistance of 0.502 and a reactance of 62 per phase. It delivers full-load current at 0.8 lagging power factor at rated voltage. What will be the terminal voltage for the same excitation and load current, if the power factor is 0.8 leading?arrow_forward
