EE258 (Synchronous Machines and DC Machines), Quiz-II and Lab Quiz-II
[Note: The questions 1 to 5 correspond to Quiz-II, and the questions 6 to 10 are of Lab Quiz-II.]

1. A 3-phase, 440 V, 50 Hz, star connected non-salient pole alternator has a per-phase
synchronous impedance of j10 ⌦. It supplies a 3-phase balanced load which draws a line
current of 20 A at a leading power factor. If it is desirable to have zero-voltage regulation,
then the power factor of the load is.
2. A 100 kVA, 415 V, 50 Hz, 3-phase, star-connected non-salient pole synchronous machine
generates rated voltage on open-circuit at a field current of 15 A. On a three-phase
symmetrical short-circuit, a field current of 10 A circulates the rated armature current.
The saturated synchronous reactance of the machine in per-unit neglecting the armature
resistance is
3. A 440 V, 50 Hz, 3-phase, star-connected cylindrical rotor synchronous generator delivers
a constant real power output and at the rated voltage. It supplies a load current of 100 A
at 0.9 power factor lagging (star-connected). An ideal 3-phase reactor is now connected
in parallel with the load, as a result, the new total reactive power requirement of the load
combination is twice the previous value of reactive power, while the real power remains
unchanged. The magnitude of the new load current is
4. A three-phase lossless non-salient-pole alternator with a synchronous reactance of 1.5
pu and with the internal voltage equal to 150% of the rated terminal voltage delivers a
reactive power of 0.25 pu. The real power delivered is
5. A three-phase lossless salient-pole alternator has xd =1.2 pu and xq =0.8 pu. With the
internal voltage equal to 150% of the rated terminal voltage, the maximum real power
delivered by the alternator is
6. Consider a 1 kVA, 230 V, 50 Hz, 4 pole, three-phase synchronous generator. When
the armature winding is excited with a three-phase balancd sinusoidal fundamental AC
currents of zero sequence, the resultant armature MMF rotates at a speed (mechanical
rad/s) equal to
7. The approximate frequency regulation of the Lab mains in the “synchronization of an
alternator to mains” experiment is
8. When a three-phase standalone alternator is loaded, if there is a change in the voltage
but there is a negligible change in the frequency, then indicate whether the load is pure
inductor or pure resistor or pure capacitor.
9. An alternator is synchronized to the mains and the alternator delivers a certain real
power while absorbing reactive power. Indicate whether the alternator is under-excited
or over-excited.
10. In the ‘dark-lamp’ method of synchronizing an alternator to the mains, with the synchro-
nizing switch open, the frequency (in Hz) of visible flicker of the lamp sets (with a correct
phase-sequence), when the incoming machine voltage is vab (t) = Vm sin(100⇡t) and the
mains voltage is vAB (t) = Vm sin(102⇡t), is
