This document discusses determining performance limitations for a generator using an operating chart with values in per unit on a 600MVA base. It asks the reader to: 1) determine the maximum real power, maximum lagging reactive power, and maximum leading reactive power from the chart; 2) indicate where power and MVA limits coincide and calculate power factor, load angle, and MVAr output; 3) determine where maximum rotor and stator heating coincide and calculate excitation and MVA output.

Copy the operating
chart reproduced here from FIGURE 15 of lesson EPS-2-2. The values are in per unit with a 600MVA base. a) , determine the following performance limitations for a generator: i) maximum real power ii) maximum reactive power (a) lagging (b) leading b) indicate with a cross where the power limit and the MVA limit coincide; then by construction lines or otherwise calculate i) the power factor ii) the load angle iii) the MVAr output
c) Where do the maximum heating for the rotor and stator coincide? Determine i) the p.u. excitation ii) the MVA output.
