Power by two generators, 1.1∠15° and 1.1∠0° pu
Short answer
Total impedance is 0.03 + j0.3 pu; current I = 0.952∠13.2° pu. G1 generates 1.047 pu real power, G2 receives 1.020 pu; line losses 0.027 pu. Both supply reactive power: G1 0.033 pu, G2 0.239 pu. Real power flows from G1 to G2.
Determine the amount of power generated by each of the generators in the power system network below. Also specify the direction of power flow in the network. [Figure: E1 = 1.1∠15° pu behind reactance j0.1 pu, connected through a line of resistance 0.03 pu and reactance j0.1 pu to E2 = 1.1∠0° pu behind reactance j0.1 pu.]
Total series impedance between the two emfs:
Let I flow from to . Then is the power generated by G1 and is the power received by G2.

Powers
| Generator | Real power | Reactive power |
|---|---|---|
| G1 | generates 1.0472 pu | generates 0.0327 pu |
| G2 | receives 1.0200 pu (acts as motor) | received = −0.2394, so it generates 0.2394 pu |
Check: pu and pu.
Direction of power flow
- Real power flows from G1 to G2, because leads by 15°. G1 is generating and G2 is motoring.
- Both machines supply reactive power to the network, and it is all consumed in the series reactances ( pu).
Answer: G1 generates 1.047 pu of real power. G2 receives 1.020 pu. The line and reactances absorb 0.027 pu. Reactive power supplied is 0.033 pu by G1 and 0.239 pu by G2. P flows G1 → G2.
