A 4160-V, 60-Hz, three-phase, Y-connected generator has a synchronous reactance of 0.9 pu and negligible armature resistance.

Question:

A 4160-V, 60-Hz, three-phase, Y-connected generator has a synchronous reactance of 0.9 pu and negligible armature resistance. At rated armature current, determine the field excitation current range for a power factor changing from zero lag to unity to zero lead. Express the range in terms of the field current required when the generator is delivering the rated current at the unity power factor.
