Question: ( 1 0 points ) A three - phase round - rotor synchronous generator, rated 1 5 kV and 1 5 0 MVA , has

(10 points) A three-phase round-rotor synchronous generator, rated 15 kV and 150 MVA , has negligible internal losses and synchronous reactance of 2 per unit. It is operated on an infinite bus having a voltage of 18 kV . The internal emf, \( E_{i}\) and the power angle, \(\delta \) of the machine are found to be 25 kV (line-to-line) and \(27.2^{\circ}\) respectively.
a) Determine the line current, kA and the three-phase real power MW and reactive power Mvar, being delivered to the system. help (numbers)
b) If the mechanical power input and the field current of the generator are now changed so that the line current of the machine is reduced by \(29\%\) at the power factor of (a), find the new internal emf \( E_{i}\) :
kV and the power angle, \(\delta \) : \({}^{\circ}\). help (numbers)
c) While delivering the reduced line current of (b), the mechanical power input and the excitation are further adjusted so that the machine operates at unity power factor at its terminals. Calculate the new values of,\( E_{i}\) : kV and the power angle, \(\delta \) : \({}^{\circ}\). help (numbers)
