input ?,,) as shown in below figure. A sudden increase in mechanical power input from ಲ
to P,,, causes the rotor oscillations between points a to c on the power angle curve, then :
(4) during the rotor swing from a— b->c: the rotor speed at point ‘b’ is greater than
at point ‘a’ and rotor speed at point ‘c’ is greater than at point ‘b’
(B) during the rotor swing from c— b-— a: rotor speed at point ‘b’ is greater than at
point ‘c’ and rotor speed at point ‘a’ is greater than at point ‘b’
(C) during the rotor swing from c— b-— a: rotor speed equals synchronous speed at
point ‘c’ and ‘a’ and at point ‘b’ it is higher than the synchronous speed

(D) during the rotor swing from a—b->c: rotor speed equals synchronous speed at
points ‘a’ and ‘c’ and at point ‘b’ it is higher than the synchronous speed
