A single-phase AC generator feeds a load. The generator may be modeled as an ideal sinusoidal voltage source (Ef volts) in series with an ideal inductance (X, = 2 ohms) and a small winding resistance (Ra = 0.5 ohms). The load draws a current of (IL = 10 amps) with a power factor of 80% lagging at a fixed load voltage (VL 240 volts). The voltages and current just mentioned are all in their rms values. Draw and label the circuit, write down the governing equation(s) and draw an appropriate phasor diagram for this operation. Calculate the angle between phasors Ef and V₁. Neglect the resistance R₁ and calculate the power flow from the source to the load by using the formula K|V₂| P = sin (8). Compare this value with the load power calculated from V I cos (0). X₁2 1

Q9. What is the basic principle that a cage winding can be represented by a three-phase winding? Give your explanation.
A three-phase star-connected alternator delivers at rated load a current I = 200 A under a voltage of 5 kV-50 Hz (between phases). The load is inductive of power factor equal to 0.87, the resistance of each stator winding is 0.292 and the speed of the rotor is n = 750 r.p.m. The sum of the constants losses and the stator Joule's losses and the rotor Joule's losses is 55 kW. The no load test, at rated frequency, gave: E-4200 V (between phases) for an excitation current lexc = 40 A.
