(Answer all the questions)
1 5X1=5
a) What are the effects of generator loading in AVR loop?

b) What is the effect of speed changer on speed governor system?

c) What are the functions of ALFC?

d) What are advantages of interconnected operation of power system?

e) What is equal area criterion?

2. With neat sketch explain speed governing system? 5

OR
State and explain equal area criterion with neat sketch and write down the applications.

3. A 50 Hz, 4-pole turbogenerator is rated 500 MVA, 22 kV and has an inertia constant ( H) of 7.5. Assume that the
generator is synchronized with a large power system and has a zero accelerating power while delivering a power of
450 MW. Suddenly its input power is changed to 475 MW. We have to find the speed of the generator in rpm at the
end of a period of 10 cycles. The rotational losses are assumed to be zero.

OR 5

Two generating units rated 300 MW and 400 MW have governor speed regulation of 6% and 4% respectively from no
load to full load. Both the generating units are operating in parallel to share the load of 600 MW. Assuming free
governor action, the load shared by the larger unit is ___________ MW.
