    Spin Up 4-53 - Droop

    According to Spin Up, if the droop increases, the generator takes on less load. Why? The droop is defined as (No Load Speed - Full Load Rated Speed)/Full Load Rated Speed (according to Woodward). Since the Full Load Speed is a rated value, I assume, when you adjust the droop, you raise or lower...

    CI 3-34

    What is the internal generated phase voltage for a 3-phase synchronous generator with per unit reactance of 1.1 and steady-state current of 0.97 pu. Base values: 250kV, 100MVA. The CI solution is V=iX=1.07pu, or 268V. Is that correct? I think the internal generated phase voltage should be the...

    CI 2-22. (Older Version)

    The problem asks for the average value of the following waveform: From 0 to1/180 ... 75V From 1/180 to 1/120 ...120V From 1/120 to 1/60 ... 95V The CI solution states the durations are the same, so they divide the sum of the 3 voltages by 3 and get the result 97V. I think the first interval...

    Spin-Up 3-25

    Problem asks for droop if full load speed is set at 59Hz and no load speed at 65Hz. The solution uses the formula Droop=((f no load - f full load)/f no load) x 100, so result is 9%. In all my references the formula for droop is ((f no load - f full load)/f full load) x 100, so my result was...

    EPRM

    Does anybody know when Camara's Power Reference Manual will be revised again? It seems like the EERM was on a two to five year cycle (8th edition - 2008, 7th edition - 2006, 6th edition - 2001, 5th edition - 1997, ...). I need to start studying soon, but I don't want to buy it too early and then...
