Show that an alternator running in parallel on constant-voltage and frequency bus-bars has a natural time period of oscillation. Deduce a formula for the time of one complete oscillation and calculate its value for a 5000-kVA, 3-phase, 10,000-V machine running at 1500 r.p.m. on constant 50-Hz bus-bars. The moment of inertia of the whole moving system is 14,112 kg-m2 and the steady short-circuit is five times the normal full-load value. ANSWER IS [1.33 second]
A 11 kV, 50 Hz, four-pole, star-connected alternator is being synchronised on an infinitebus. On the moment of synchronising, the excitation is such that the induced emf is 10%too low and the synchronising angle is 8° electrical leading.

Two alternators rated 400 MW and 600 MW are operating in parallel. The droop characteristics of their governors are 3% and 4% respectively from no load to full load.
