Question: ( a ) Two generators rated 1 0 0 MW and 2 0 0 MW are operating in parallel. The droop characteristics of their governor

(a) Two generators rated 100 MW and 200 MW are operating in parallel. The droop characteristics of their governor are \(4\%\) and \(3\%\) respectively from no-load to fullload. Assuming that the generators are operating at 50 Hz on no-load, how would a load of 50 MW be shared between them? What will be the system frequency at this load?
(b) A three-phase, Y-connected induction load is supplied by a three-phase and four-wire system with line-line voltage of 220 V (rms) and the impedances of the load is \((5+j 4)\Omega \) per phase. Determine the magnitude of the line current and the power factor of the load.
(c) The blade length of a wind turbine is 8 m and power coefficient Cp is 0.35. Compute the power captured by the blades when wind speed is \(4.0\mathrm{~m}/\mathrm{s}\) in a site where air density is \(1.5\mathrm{~kg}/\mathrm{m}3\).
