Q#1 Synchronous Machines GATE EE 2017 (Set 2) NAT +2 marks -0 marks

A 25 kVA, 400 V, –connected, 3-phase, cylindrical rotor synchronous generator requires a field current of 5 A to maintain the rated armature current under short-circuit condition. For the same field current, the open-circuit voltage is 360 V. Neglecting the armature resistance and magnetic saturation, its voltage regulation (in % with respect to terminal voltage), when the generator delivers the rated load at 0.8 pf leading, at rated terminal voltage is ___________.
