Question: An 1 1 k V , 1 0 MVA three - phase network synchronous generator is operating with an excitation level ( stator induced emf

An 11kV,10 MVA three-phase network synchronous generator is operating with an excitation level (stator induced emf) of 16 kV with a lagging power factor of 0.86. The synchronous reactance xs of the machine is 10.
Draw the phasor diagram of the generator and use it to determine the stator rms current at this operating point. What are the corresponding values of (i) the generator load angle, (ii) the power injected into the network by the generator, and (iii) the reactive power injected into the network by the generator?
Maintaining the same level of power through the machine, the excitation is now reduced by 20%.
What is the new value of the stator current and what is the corresponding operating power factor of the generator?
An 1 1 k V , 1 0 MVA three - phase network
