IncorrectThe induced emf in a pole, 3-phase star connected synchronous motor is considered to be equal and in phase with the terminal voltage under no load condition. On application of a mechanical load, the induced emf phasor is deflected by an angle of mechanical with respect to the terminal voltage phasor. If the synchronous reactance is , and stator resistance is negligible, then the motor armature current magnitude, in ampere, during loaded condition is closest to, _________ (round off to two decimal places).
poles P=4, connected synchronous motor
Under No-load- (equal in magnitude & in-phase)
At load: mechanical (given),
From phasor diagram,
And,
In
A 3-phase, 11kV, 10 MVA synchronous generator is connected to an inductive load of power factor via a lossless line with a per-phase inductive reactance of . The per-phase synchronous reactance of the generator is with negligible armature resistance. If the generator is producing the rated current at the rated voltage, then the power factor at the terminal of the generator is
The reactance of Lossless Line is,
Load pf angle
Generator Terminal Voltage,
Load Current,
Assume receiving end voltage as reference,
By KVL,
Since the line is lossless, power at sending end i.e. generator terminals must be same as load power
Sending end pf,
