Determine the ohmic value of the current limiting reactor per phase external to a 30 MVA, 11 kV, 50 Hz, three phase synchronous generator which can limit the current on short circuit of 5 times the full load current. The reactance of the synchronous generator is 0.05 pu.
The ratio of full load current to short circuit current = 1/5 Xsc = j/(1/5) External reactance required = j*((1/5) - 0.05)) = j*0.15 pu Full load current = (30*1000)/(√3*11) = 1574.6 A Per unit reactance = j*0.15 = (I*Xr)/V j*0.15 = (1574.6*Xb)/((11/√3)*1000)) = 0.60 ohm
In DC microgrid system, Efficiency α 1/Pin For 1 kW loss injecting power is 20 kW For 1.5 kW loss injecting power will be proportional to 30 kW So, Efficiency will be reduced 0.025
