Question: The following test data are obtained for a 3 4 , 1 9 5 MVA, 1 5 kV , 6 0 Hz star - connected

The following test data are obtained for a 34,195 MVA, 15 kV,60 Hz star-connected synchro- nous machine. Open-circuit test: I;(A)150300600750900 Vit (kV)3.757S 13.61515.8 Short-circuit test: I, =750 A, f,=7000 A The armature resistance is very small. {a) Draw the open-circuit characteristic, the short-circuit characteristic, the air gap line, and the modified air gap line. (b) Determine the unsaturated and saturated values of the synchronous reactance in ohms and also inipu. (c) Find the field current required if the synchronous machine is to deliver 100 MVA at rated voltage, at 0.8 leading power factor. Find the voltage regulation of the synchronous generator for the load of part (c). Voltage regulation:(VR) is defined as follows: VR = Vilioad removed ~ Vilwith toad 100% Vilvith load
