Question: A 5 0 0 V dc generator with Ra = 0 . 5 and another 4 8 0 V generator with Ra = 0 .

A 500V dc generator with Ra=0.5 and another 480 V generator with Ra=0.4 generate together 100 KW to supply a load. Calculate the Share of the generators in KW and find the terminal Voltage.
Ans: Let G1 share m kilowatt and G2(100-m) Kilo Watts.
I1=1000m/Eg1=2m and I2=1000(100-m)/480 V =208.333-2.08333m.
From the equation V=Eg1-I1.Ra1=Eg2-i2.Ra2 we get 500-(2m)(0.5)=480-(208.333-2.08333m).(0.4);
We solve for m; then we solve for terminal voltage V
