Why does the magnetizing curve of shunt generator tend to become horizontal after a certain value of field current?
The magnetizing curve of a shunt generator becomes horizontal after a certain value of field current due to magnetic saturation of the iron core. As the field current increases, the magnetic flux also increases, but once the core reaches saturation, additional increases in current result in only marginal increases in flux. This leads to a flattening of the curve, indicating that the generator's ability to produce additional voltage is limited despite increased field current. Essentially, the magnetic material can no longer effectively respond to changes in current due to its saturation.

Magnetising characteristics of DC shunt generator?
the magnetizing curve is the relation b/w air gap flux and the field winding current armature EMF. the resulting curve is called magnetizing characteristics or open circuit characteristics. at any speed by recognizing that the induced emf is directly proportional to the speed
How much magnetizing current of 2.5MVA transformer?
The magnetizing current of a transformer, such as a 2.5 MVA transformer, typically ranges from 2% to 5% of the full-load current. To calculate the magnetizing current, you first need to determine the full-load current using the formula: ( I_{full-load} = \frac{S}{\sqrt{3} \times V} ), where ( S ) is the apparent power (2.5 MVA) and ( V ) is the line voltage. Assuming a common line voltage (like 11 kV), the magnetizing current would then be roughly between 50 A to 125 A, depending on the specific transformer design and characteristics.
What is the difference between the inrush current and the fault current?
Magnetizing inrush current has bigger 2nd harmonics compare to short circuit current. the second harmonics content is about >60% of fundamental harmonic. magnetizing inrush current happened when we energised the transformer, and short circuit current happened if there is a short circuit between different alive phase.
What is an ac and DC generator?
An a.c. generator produces alternating current, whereas a d.c. generator produces direct current.
What is meant by maganetization current?
It is the one which is used to produce flux in transformer and main field flux in motor or generator. Flux is proportional to the current passed through the coil. Flux is inversely proportional to the reluctance of the medium that the flux passes through. Flux is analogous to current. Reluctance is analogous to resistance. MMF is analogous to voltage. so if there is a coil carrying 5A current and 10 turns it produces 5*10 = 50 Ampere Turns MMF . so as the current increases MMF increases. If reluctance of the medium used is high there will be more flux. Let us take a transformer in that in order to produce EMF in the secondary we have to give flux from the primary for that we need a current in the primary that is called Magnetizing current . Any way if we load the transformer , the transformer primary carries (N2 / N1 ) * I2 current in addition to magnetizing current. Apart from these two currents there will be another current which is responsible for core loss in the transformer. Please note that all these three currents are at different phase angles i.e. they are not in same phase. Medium for the flux in the transformer is core. If it is a iron core reluctance is more , to produce same EMF it will take more magnetizing current. If we use CRGO steel as core reluctance is less. For less magnetizing current itself we get flux for the required EMF in secondary.
What is mean by magnetizing current of transformer?
A: As current flow in the primary it will magnetize the core of the iron in the transformer that is called magnetizing.

How it is getting current from generator?
To draw current from a generator, you need to connect a load to it.

What is an ac and DC generator?
An a.c. generator produces alternating current, whereas a d.c. generator produces direct current.
Why does OCC curve become flat after certain field current?
The OCC (Open Circuit Characteristic) curve becomes flat after a certain field current because the magnetic saturation of the field winding is reached. At this point, increasing the field current does not result in a proportional increase in the generator's terminal voltage. The core material of the generator becomes saturated and can't further increase the magnetic flux.

Does a generator produce direct current or alternating current?
A generator produces an alternating current, still it gives d.c. output because we use slip-rings at the terminals of actual output of generator.
