Open questionEENAT2 marksNeeds review
A system with two generators G1 and G2 (without generator limits) is shown.

The total load on the system is 1184 MW. The expressions for the cost of generation (C₁ and C₂) and real power loss (Pₗₒₛ) are as follows:
C₁(P_G₁) = 1000 + 50P_G₁ + 0.01(P_G₁)² Rs/MWh
C₂(P_G₂) = 2000 + 50P_G₂ + 0.001(P_G₂)² Rs/MWh
Pₗₒₛ = 0.001(P_G₂ − 50)² MW
When the generators are operating at their optimal generation, meeting the total load requirement, the real power loss in the system is ______ MW (Round off to one decimal place)
Consider the Lagrange multiplier λ = 70.25 for optimal generation.

Open questionEENAT2 marksNeeds review
A balanced three-phase supply is given to a 30 kW, 4-pole, 400 V, 50 Hz, wound rotor induction motor with Y-connected stator and rotor windings. The motor is driving a constant torque load. With shorted sliprings, the machine runs at 1476 rpm.
When an external non-inductive resistance of 0.27 Ω per phase is connected in series in the rotor circuit, the steady-state speed drops to 1404 rpm.
Neglecting rotational losses, the actual per phase rotor winding resistance is ___ Ω
(Round off to two decimal places)
