    Load Flow Voltage Distortion Across Transformers

    I am performing a load flow study for a low voltage distribution facility (480V) with step down transformers to 208V using SKM. Can anyone explain why the % V.D across a transformer differs when I change taps on the high side vs on the low side. In other words, -5.00% on the primary side does...

    SKM Generator Field Current

    Hi everyone, I am modeling a generator decrement curve on SKM and am using a whitepaper published by Cummins (link below) to model the decrement curve. On page 2 it says the no load field current, Ifg, is obtained from the alternator submittals and is 0.88 Amps. However, SKM asks for the per...

    Generator Armature Time Constant vs DC Time Constant

    I am modeling a generator using SKM and don't really understand the difference between the armature time constant, Ta and the DC time constant Tdc. I tried using Glover's analysis and design textbook but still cannot determine what the difference is. He provides the equation idc =...
