The capability curves of a synchronous generator operating at rated voltage


give the maximum active- and reactive-power loadings that can be suplied
without exceeding the KVA rating (armature heating limit) or the field heating
limit. Dragging point R which establishes the rated operating conditions
changes the power factor. The slider KVA controls the rating. Dragging point A
shows the effects of machine reactance. The stabilty limit is reached when =
90.
