A three-phase, Y-connected, 75MVA, 27kV synchronous generator has a synchronous reactance of 9.0/phase. Using rated MVA and voltage as the base values, determine the per-unit reactance. Then refer this per-unit value to a 100-MVA, 30kV base.

Given Information:  

ZΩ = 9 per phase

Sbase = 75 MVA

Sbase = 100 MVA

kV = 27 kV

kV = 30 kV

Required Information:  

Zpu = ?

Zpu_new = ?

Zpu = 0.925 pu

Zpu_new = 1 pu

Explanation:  

Zbase = (kVbase)²/Sbase

Zbase = (27x10³)²/75x10⁶

Zbase = 9.72

Zpu = Zactual/Zbase

Zpu = 9/9.72

Zpu = 0.925 pu

Now base MVA is changed to 100 MVA and base kV is changed to 30kV so the per unit value becomes

Zbase = (kVbase)²/Sbase

Zbase = (30x10³)²/100x10⁶

Zbase = 9

Zpu_new = Zactual/Zbase

Zpu_new = 9/9

Zpu_new = 1 pu

the warning light flashes for a second or two when the engine starts. if it stays on, there's must be something wrong with the coolant. you should never dare to continue driving when the light is on. pull over as soon as possible and shut the engine off.

hope this is what you're talking about
