- Q1Majority of 3 phase alternators in use havestationary field windingnone of theserotating armature windingrotating field winding30s
- Q2Alternators mostly work on rotating field type principle which is difference from dc machines where the field is stationary. Therefore the alternatorsdo not obey Lenz lawdon't obeey Ohms lawdon't obey Faradays lawwork on Faradays law30s
- Q3High speed alternators have a rotor construction ofsalient pole typesquirrel cage typenon-salient pole typedc armature type30s
- Q4Alternators are designed to generatedefinite power factordefinite frequenciesdefinite currentsvariable frequencies30s
- Q5The diameter of high speed turbo generators as compared to hydroelectric ones arenone of theselarger because speed is highsmaller because speed is losssmaller because speed is high30s
- Q6The slip rings employed in a 3 phase alternator in hydrostation are insulated forvery high voltagefull armature voltageextra high voltagelow voltage30s
- Q7When the speed of the alternator increases, the frequencyremains the samedecreasesincreasesnone of these30s
- Q8When load power factor is unity, the armature flux of an alternator isdemagnetizingaiding the field fluxsquare the warecross-magnetizing30s
- Q9High voltage alternators are usually of the rotating field type. This means the generated voltage is applieddirectly to rotornone of thesethrough slip rings to loaddirectly to load30s
- Q10One of the advantages of a short pitched winding is theelimination of harmonicsincrease of inductionreduction of voltagereduction of circulating current30s
- Q11Pitch factor is the ratio of the emf's ofdistributed winding to full pitch windingshort pitch coil to full pitch coilconcentrated winding to distributed windingfull pitch winding to distributed winding30s
- Q12The imaginary or fictitious part of synchronous reactance takes care ofarmature reactioncopper lossesvoltage regulationinductance reactance30s
- Q13Synchronous reactance consists of two components, namelyleakage reactance and capacitive reactancenone of theseleakage reactance and fictitious reactancearmature resistance and leakage reactance30s
- Q14One of the advantages of distibruting the winding in alternators is toimprove voltage wave formdecrease the value of the voltagereduce harmonicesreduce the amount of copper30s
