Can someone help me with this partial per unit problem? The actual problem has couple of other generator but I got stuck with this very first step.
Problem:
Generator 1 rated as 100 MVA, 33 KV, reactance 10%. Determine the reactance of the generator corresponding to base values of 200 MVA, 35 KV.
Solution:
MVAB = 200 (given)
KVB = 35 (given)
X B = (KVB (L-L))2 /MVAB
= 352 /200 = 6.125
Xpu (new) = 0.1 (33/35)2 * (200/100) = 0.16 pu
Xactual = Xpu * XB = 0.16 * 6.125 = .98
The actual answer to this problem is Xg = 0.1777
