Question 157easy
In a synchronous generator operating at zero pf !aging, the effect of armature reaction is
Question 158easy
Following a sudden short-circuit at the terminals of a 3-phase unloaded synchronous generator, the initial effect of the pole-face damper winding, is to
Question 159easy

Question 160easy
For proper synchronisation of a large synchronous machine to a bus, the frequency of the incoming machine
Question 161easy
A 3-phase alternator delivers power to a balanced 3-phase load of power factor 0.707 lagging. It is observed that the open-circuit emf phasor leads the corresponding terminal voltage phasor by 15?. Neglecting the effect of harmonics, the angle between the axis of the main field mmf and the axis of the armature mmf will be
Question 162easy
A 3-phase, 400 V, delta connected alternator has a synchronous impedance 01 (0 +j20) ohms per phase. If it delivers a balanced load of 12 kVA at zero power factor leading, then the percentage voltage regulation of the alternator is equal to
