A three-phase, 500-kVA, 480-V, 60-Hz, Y-connected synchronous generator gave these test results at rated speed: (1) Open

Question:

A three-phase, 500-kVA, 480-V, 60-Hz, Y-connected synchronous generator gave these test results at rated speed:

(1) Open circuit voltage at rated field current = 560 VLL 

(2) Short circuit current at rated field current = 305 A. 

When cold at 20°C, the average dc resistance of three armature phase coils measured by ohmmeter was 0.20 Ω. Determine the armature ac resistance and synchronous reactance per phase at an operating temperature of 90°C.
