kVA is the unit for apparent power. Apparent power consists of active and reactive power. Active power is the share of the apparent power which transmits energy from the source (generator) to the user. Reactive power is the share of the apparent power which represents a useless oscillation of energy from the source to the user and back again.

It occurs when on account of some ?inertia? in the system there is a phase shift between voltage and current. This means that the current does not change polarity synchronous with the voltage. But the heat generated in a winding as well as the eddy current losses generated in a transformer core depend on the current only, regardless of whether it aligns with the voltage or not.

Therefore the heat is always proportional to the square of the current amplitude, irrespective of the phase angle (the shift between voltage and current). So a transformer has to be rated (and selected) by apparent power.

In transformer there is two losses
1. Iron loss
2. Copper loss
The iron loss is depands on Voltage
And the Copper loss is depands on current.

There are cu losses and iron losses which are not dependent on power factor thats why we rated it in KVA.

100 kw is the full load rating of the generator..... ..that means it can supply 100 kw without exceeding in specified temperature limits .that doesnt mean that it wont be able to supply a load more than 100 kw,it can but not for a longer period of time.after sometime the generator will burn out.if a load of 50 kw is connected to generator the generator will generate only 50 kw& not more than that.the generator will generate power only according to the requirement.

The Generator produce the power is exactly what we withdraw as load. 100 kw genset can produce 1 kw to 115kw power depending upon the connected/withdrawing load. Normally the generator can produce 115% of designed rating.

The power ratio between Star to Delta is 1:3

Explanation:

 

Let?s suppose V_s be the supply voltage per phase.

So the line voltage of the supply will be ?3V_s.

Now assume any type of load; for simplicity I?m assuming it a only resistive load.

And let it be ?R? per phase.

 

For Delta connected load:

 

Calculation for per phase power; P_D= I²R

 

Where I ? load current (per phase)

And,

I = ?3V_s/R       {as line voltage of the supply is directly applied to the phase of the delta load}

So,

            P_d = (?3V_s/R )²R = 3V_s²/R  watts per phase.

For 3 phases:

            P_3D = 3P_d = 3*3V_s²/R = 9V_s²/R watts.

 

Now for Star connected load:

 

P_S = I²R = (V_s/R)²R = V_s²/R watts

For 3 phases: P_3S = 3P_S = 3 V_s²/R watts

 

Conclusion:

P_3S / P_{3D  =}  3V_s²/R / 9V_s²/R = 1/3

It may be better concluded by drowing figures. If any variations, can connect to me through karan.sorout@gmail.com
