I can help you analyze and solve this problem. Let me extract the details from the image and provide step-by-step solutions to the questions.### Analysis and Solution for the Problem

This is a synchronous alternator problem. Let's break it into steps based on the requirements:

Given Parameters:

• Nominal voltage: $V_n / U_n = 115V / 200V$
• Apparent power: $S_n = 40 \, \text{kVA}$
• Frequency: $f_n = 400 \, \text{Hz}$
• Speed: $n = 12000 \, \text{rpm}$
• Open-circuit EMF: $E_v = 4.4 \, \text{V}$
• Armature resistance: $R_s = 0.1 \, \Omega$
• Short-circuit current: $I_{\text{cc}} = 3.07 \, \text{A}$

Questions Breakdown:

1. Number of pole pairs: $p = \frac{120 \cdot f_n}{n}$

2. Effective current under nominal load: $I_n = \frac{S_n}{\sqrt{3} \cdot U_n}$

3. Synchronous impedance ($Z_s$): Use the short-circuit test: $Z_s = \frac{E_v}{I_{\text{cc}}}$

4. Reactance ($X_s$): Subtract the resistive component: $X_s = \sqrt{Z_s^2 - R_s^2}$

Additional Requirements:

• Determine $I_{ex0}$ for a system under nominal voltage: This involves solving for the excitation current $I_{ex0}$ using the phasor diagram for the synchronous machine.

• For $Q_d$: Calculate $I_{ex}$ to maintain $\cos \phi = 0.85$ under a given load condition.

Let me calculate these steps. parameters Sn_kVA = 40 # kVA Un = 200 # V fn = 400 # Hz n_rpm = 12000 # rpm Ev = 4.4 # V Rs = 0.1 # Ohms Icc = 3.07 # A

Convert Sn to VA

Sn = Sn_kVA * 1000 # VA

1. Calculate number of pole pairs

p = (120 * fn) / n_rpm

2. Effective current under nominal load

In = Sn / (Un * (3**0.5)) # A

3. Calculate synchronous impedance (Zs)

Zs = Ev / Icc # Ohms

4. Calculate reactance (Xs)

Xs = (Zs2 - Rs2)**0.5 # Ohms

p, In, Zs, Xs### Results:

1. Number of pole pairs: $p = 4$
2. Effective current under nominal load: $I_n = 115.47 \, \text{A}$
3. Synchronous impedance: $Z_s = 1.433 \, \Omega$
4. Reactance: $X_s = 1.430 \, \Omega$
