SYNCHRONOUS GENERATOR CAPABILITY LIMITTsynchronous generator capability limiters are as follows

1.MVA or armature current limit of generator: this depends on the cooling system of generator so that temperature rise in generator is limited to safe value.depending on cooling system effectiveness and temperature limit for the insulation used in generator, MVA limit is decided.

2.MW limit: this is determined by the power output capacity of prime mover to which generator is connected.

3.rotor angle limit: this is related to stability of generator which is synchronised to the grid.ideally this could be 90 degree, but in practice this is limited to70 degree so as to have better stability margin in transient and dynamic condition.the generator falls out of synchronism in trasient condition if rotor angle is close to 90 degree.

4. rotor current limit: the field winding placed on rotor has got limited current carrying capacity, beyond which it may burn .so this limit is used.

all these limitters make capability curve of g generator within which the generators operates safely

Define generator short circuit ratio?

Checked Stephen J. Chapman's Electric Machinery Fundamentals page 287. It says: Short Circuit Ratio (SCR) for the synchronous generator is the ratio of the field current required for the rated voltage at OPEN circuit to the field current require for the rated armature current at SHORT circuit.

How do you determine transfer function of a synchronous generator?

This is just one of the ways:Choose the variables couple in question defining the SISO form of the system. Write out the state space matrix commonly denoted as "A" of the synchronous machine. Calculate the eigenvalues of that matrix. Then calculate the residues of the matrix with respect to the selected SISO system (the chosen variables in question define the input matrix B and output matrix C). The eigenvalues are the zeros of the transfer function while the residues are the constants in the fractionally partitioned form of the transfer function.The matrices I was talking about define the linearised system in the form :dx/dt=Ax+Buy=CxFor a more thorough explanation seePower System Stability And Control By Prabha Kundur

What can happen if a utility-sized electrical generator has an ungrounded neutral?

What you need to define is the statement "utility- sized electrical generator". It depends on what the generators output is used for as to the way it is internally wired. In some configurations there is no neutral to ground as in a Delta configuration.If the generator is configured for a Wye output and the neutral centre tap is not grounded there will be a floating voltage between the generator and the utility system ground. It is for this reason that the generator's neutral point is grounded to bring the floating voltage down to zero volts to ground.
