Rank the voltage outputs, current, and power of the secondaries from greatest to least.
Justify your answer based on the obtained voltage outputs, current, and power of the
secondaries.
Last question: since most large solar installations are connected to the power
grid (such as the groups of panels in school parking lots), the DC output from the
PV cells must be changed to the AC electricity of the power grid. The device that
does this is called a power
31. A geared turbine unit delivers 18,500 kW at the buli
gear coupling at full power with a propeller shaft
speed of 400rpm. Under these conditions, the
mechanical losses total 925 kVW. At 35 km/hr, the
propeller makes 200 rpm and the shaft power is
2000 kW. Assume the mechanical losses vary as
the square of the rpm and find the internal power
develboped at full power.
A. 23.459 kW
B. 19,425 kW
C. 10,543 kW
D. 25,453 kW
