q1: Discussion of power quality aspects that need to be considered before installing the power factor correction unit
Suppose two generators supplying a load. Generator-1 has a no-load frequency of 61.5 Hz and a slopesp1 of 1 MW/Hz. Generator-2 has a no-load frequency of 62 Hz and a slope sp2 of 1MW/Hz. The twogenerators are supplying a real load totaling 2.5 MW at 0.8 PF lagging. Draw the resulting systempower-frequency or house-diagrams. Determine (a) at what frequency is the system operating, andhow much power is supplied by each of the generators? (b) if an additional 0.75-MW load wereattached to this power system.
