Question

A synchronous generator having synchronous reactance of 1.0 pu is connected to infinite busbar of 1.0 p.u voltage through 2 parallel lines each of 0.5 p.u. reactance. The generator excitation when it is delivering zero active power and 0.5 pu lagging reactive power to the infinite busbars is____ p.u.
  1. 1.62

Solution

The correct option is A 1.62
Circuit model is as shown

Phasor diagram is as shown

Q=EbIasinϕ

0.5=1.0×Ia×sin90

Ia=0.5p.u

From phasor diagram,

Ef=1.625p.u.
