Q.7 a) Derive an EMF equation of an alternator. Give importance of pitch factor and distribution factor.
(05)
b) Explain hunting phenomenon in synchronous machines. Why it is objectionable? What are its
factor, when running on11KVconstant frequency bus bars. If the steam admission be unchanged
and the emf raised by25%, determine the new value of machine current and power factor. If this
higher value of excitation were kept constant and steam supply gradually increased, at what power
output would the alternator break from synchronism. Find also the current and power factor to
which this maximum load corresponds and state whether this power factor is lagging or leading.
