    This document provides examples of calculations to determine voltage regulation in synchronous machines using open circuit and short circuit test data. The examples show determining synchronous reactance and impedance from test values, then using phasor diagrams to calculate the generated voltage under load conditions such as 0.8 power factor lagging or leading. Voltage regulation is expressed as the percent difference between no-load and loaded generated voltages.

    Synchronous Machine

    Ex.1. A 1200 kVA, 3300 volts, 50 Hz, three phase star connected alternator has an armature resistance
    of 0.25 Ω per phase. A field current of 40 Amps produces a short circuit current of 200 Amps and an
    open circuitemf of 1100 volts line to line. Find the % regulation at full load 0.8 pf lagging and leading
    by using emf method.

    Soln: Full load current = 1200 x 103/ (√3 x 3300) = 210 amps;
    Voltage per phase Vph= 3300/√3 = 1905 volts
    Synchronous impedance Zs = oc voltage per phase/ sc current per phase …….. for same excitation
    = (1100/√3) / 200 = 3.17 Ω
    Synchronous reactance = Xs = √[( Zs)2 - (Ra)2] = √ (3.17)2 + (0.25)2 = 3.16 Ω
    0.8 pf lagging: referring to the phasor diagram
    Eph = √[ (V cosФ + IRa)2 + (V sinФ + IXS)2]
    =√[(1905 x 0.8 + 210 x 0.25)2 + ( 1905 x 0.6 + 210 x 3.16)2
    = 2398 volts
    Voltage regulation = [(Eph – Vph)/ Vph] x 100
    = [(2398 – 1905) / 1905] x 100
    = 25.9 %
    0.8 pf leading: Eph = √[ (V cosФ + IRa)2 + (V sinФ - IXS)2]
    =√[(1905 x 0.8 + 210 x 0.25)2 + ( 1905 x 0.6 - 210 x 3.16)2
    = 1647 volts
    Voltage regulation = [(Eph – Vph/ Vph )] x 100
    = [(1647 – 1905) / 1905] x 100
    = - 13.54 %
    Ex.2. A 3-phase star connected alternator is rated at 1600 kVA, 13500 volts. The armature resistance and
    synchronous reactance are 1.5 Ω and30 Ω per phase respectively. Calculate the percentage

    voltage regulation for a load of 1280 kW at a pf of 0.8 leading.

    Soln: Full load current = 1600 x 103/ (√3 x 13500 x 0.8) = 68.4 amps;
    Voltage per phase Vph= 13500/√3 = 7795volts

    Synchronous Machine

    0.8 pf leading: Eph = √[ (V cosФ + IRa)2 + (V sinФ - IXS)2]


    =√[(7795 x 0.8 + 68.4 x 1.5)2 + ( 7795 x 0.6 – 68.4 x 30)2
    = 6861 volts
    Voltage regulation = [(Eph – Vph/ Vph )] x 100
    = [(6861 – 7795) / 7795] x 100
    = - 12 %
    Ex.3. A 3-phase star connected alternator is rated at 100 kVA. On short-circuit a field current of 50
    amp gives the full load current. The e.m.f. generated on open circuit with the same field current is 1575
    V/phase. Calculate the voltage regulation at (a) 0.8 power factor lagging, and (b) 0.8 power factor
    leading by synchronous impedance method. Assume armature resistance is 1.5 Ω.

    Ex. 4. A 10 MVA 6.6 kV, 3phase star connected alternator gave open circuit and short circuit data as follows.
    Field current in amps: 25 50 75 100 125 150
    OC voltage in kV (L-L): 2.4 4.8 6.1 7.1 7.6 7.9
    SC Current in Amps: 288 528 875
    Find the voltage regulation at full load 0.8 pf lagging by emf method. Armature resistance per phase =
    0.13 Ω.
    Soln: Full load current = 10 x 106/ (√3 x 6600) = 875 amps;

    Synchronous Machine

    Voltage per phase Vph= 6600/√3 = 3810volts


    Corresponding to the full load current of 875 amps oc voltage from the oc and sc characteristics is 6100 volts

    Hence synchronous impedance Zs = oc voltage per phase/ sc current per phase


    = (6100/√3)/ 875

    = 4.02 Ω
    0.8 pf lagging: Eph = √[ (V cosФ + IRa)2 + (V sinФ + IXS)2]
    =√[(3810 x 0.8 + 875 x 0.13)2 + ( 3810 x 0.6 – 875x 4.01789)2
    = 6607.26volts
    Voltage regulation = [(Eph – Vph/ Vph )] x 100
    = [(6607.26 – 3810) / 3810] x 100
    = 73.42%

    Ex. 5 The data obtained on 100 kVA, 1100 V, 3-phase alternator is : DC resistance test, E between line
    = 6 V dc, I in lines = 10 A dc. Open circuit test, field current = 12.5 A dc, line voltage = 420 V ac.
    Short circuit test, field current = 12.5 A, line current = rated value, calculate the voltage regulation of
    alternator at 0.8 pf lagging.
