The synchronous generator or alternator is an electrical machine that converts the mechanical power
from a prime mover into an AC electrical power at a particular voltage and frequency.
The synchronous motor always runs at a constant speed called synchronous speed. A three phase, 8
pole, synchronous Generator is coupled to a diesel engine running at 500 rpm. It supplies an induction
motor which has a full load speed of 1440 rpm. Find the percentage slip and number of poles of the
induction motor

During a power outage, a homeowner starts a generator that outputs 4,000 W of electrical power. It burns gasoline at a rate of 15 gallons per day. Gasoline has an energy content of 19,800 BTU/lb, a density of 6.07 lb/gal and a carbon content of 86% by mass. 1. What is the generators efficiency at converting gasoline energy to electrical energy? How many pound of CO2 does the generator emit per day?

A 50 Hz synchronous generator is supplying 60% of its maximum power to an infinite bus through a reactive network. Due to a certain fault, the reactance of the network between the generator internal voltage and the infinite bus is increased four times. After the fault is cleared, 80% of maximum power can be transferred Sketch the mechanical power vs. power angle curves, in the same figure, under the different operation conditions, and annotate all the key points on the...

A 2000 V single-phase synchronous generator is being used as a backup generator outside a diagnostic center. When the generator terminals are short-circuited and a field excitation current of 2.5 A is passed, the ammeter between the terminals read 100 A of full load current. If the terminals of the same generator are opened and the voltage across them is measured using a voltmeter, we get the value of 500 V with the same excitation current. The armature resistance is...
