For the same value of field current, the synchronous reactance is found as follows:
In figure 01, consider the field current If = OA that produces rated alternator voltage per phase.
Corresponding to this field current the open circuit voltage is AB.
Calculate the excitation e.m.f Eo and voltage regulation for full-load for these three conditions:
√[( ) ( ) ]
Draw phasor diagrams for above three loads and verify the calculated results.
Result:
Regulation of alternator at full load is found to be:
At unity pf = --------------------------
At 0.8 lagging = ----------------------
At 0.8 leading = ----------------------
Synchronous Impedance varies for different values of excitation.
Conclusion:
To synchronize 3-Phase Alternator with Infinite Bus
