Question: 1 1 . 1 A three - phase, 6 0 - Hz , 5 0 0 - MVA, 1 1 . 8 - kV ,

11.1 A three-phase, 60-Hz,500-MVA, 11.8-kV,4-pole steam turbine-generating unit has an H constant of 6 p.u.-s. Determine: (a) syn and msyn; (b) the kinetic energy in joules stored in the rotating masses at synchronous speed; (c) the mechanical angular acceleration am and electrical angular acceleration a if the unit is operating at syn- chronous speed with an accelerating power of 500 MW. Calculate J in kg m2 for the generating unit . Given that for a moving mass Wkinetic=1/2 Mv2, how fast would a 80,000 kg diesel locomotive need to go to equal the energy stored in the generator mass at synchronous speed?
