A three-phase induction generator used for a fixed-speed grid-connected wind turbine has the following parameters Voltage = 220 V (L-L) Rated Power = 14000 Watts Frequency = 50 Hz Pole pairs = 4 The induction generator is running at 1000 rpm and supplying a grid current of 67.88 A at a power factor of 0.52. Determine. (a) Slip (b) the capacitor size which must be placed at the machine stator terminal for unity power factor operation.
