A 1.2 MVA, 1800 r/min, 6.6 kV, 60 Hz, 3-phase generator delivers rated current to an infinite bus at unity power factor. The synchronous reactance is 1.0 per unit, based on its own rating. The open-circuit characteristic in the operating region is given by Vf = 100 + 65If. What is the excitation voltage and the torque angle?

A 15000 KVA 6.9 KV generator, star connected, has positive, negative, and zero sequence reactances of 0.25, 0.25, and 0.08 p.u. respectively. A reactor of 0.06 p.u. reactance fault occurs at the terminals of the generator when it is operating at its rated voltage and unloaded. Find the initial r.m.s. line and ground wire current for a solidly grounded fault and also the voltage to ground of the unfaulted line. (UPSC-1975) Ans I=1=4970A; I=5480A V=69.7KV
