Rotating field type alternator is generally used for rating of up to _______.
1000 MVA
Rotating field type alternators are commonly used for high power generation applications. While they can be designed for various power ratings, their prevalent use lies in the higher range due to their inherent design characteristics. Smaller alternators often utilize different designs for cost-effectiveness and efficiency considerations at lower power levels.
Therefore, the statement "Rotating field type alternator is generally used for rating of up to _______" is best completed with a high power rating. Among the options provided, 1000 MVA (Mega Volt-Ampere) represents the largest power rating.
Correct Answer: 1000 MVA
The other options (100 KVA, 250 KVA, and 1000 VA) represent significantly lower power ratings and are not typical applications where rotating field type alternators are predominantly employed.
The alternators are rated as________
Consider the table given:
Constructional feature | Machine type | Mitigation |
(P) Damper bars | (S) Induction motor | (X) Hunting |
(Q) Skewed rotor slots | (T) Transformer | (Y) Magnetic locking |
(R) Compensation winding | (U)Synchronous machine | (Z) Armature reaction |
(V) DC machine |
Torques are associated with synchronous motor; which of the following torques is also known as breakaway torque?
A generating voltmeter uses ___________.
In a synchronous motor hunting takes place
Which of the following statements about the armature reaction of an alternator with unity power factor is NOT true?
