The RMS load angle Equation(10.1) can be written in per-unit form as follows.

P=3U^{2}_{sph}\frac{L_{d}-L_{q}}{2\omega _{s}L_{d}L_{q}}\sin 2\delta _{s}=3U^{2}_{sph}\frac{1-\frac{L_{q}}{L_{d}} }{2\omega _{s}L_{q}}=\sin 2\delta _{s}      (10.1)

 

P = u^{2} \frac { L_{d} – L_{q} } { 2 w_{s} L_{d} L_{q} } sin 2δ_{s} = u^{2}_{spu} \frac { 1- \frac {L_{q}}{L_{d} } }{2w_{s} L_{q} } sin 2δ_{s}

At the Ld /Lq =50 saliency ratio with a load angle of δs=10°,per-unit power is

p = 1^{2} \frac { 1- \frac {0.2}{10 } }{2⋅ 1 ⋅ 0.2 } sin (2 ⋅ 10° ) = 0.83

This expression can be simplified by assuming there is no leakage. With Ψsm=1, Ψmd mcosδs=0.98. The current id needed to excite the machine is as follows.

i_{d} = \frac {Ψ_{md}}{L_{md} } = \frac {0.98}{10} = 0.098

Correspondingly, q-axis current is

i_{q} = \sqrt { i^{2}_{spu} + i^{2}_{dpu} } = \sqrt {1^{2} – 0.098^{2} } = 0.995

So the electric current angle becomes κ=arcos(0.995/.098)=84.4°, and the power factor is

cos φ = \frac {(L_{d} – L_{q}) i_{d}i_{q}}{ \sqrt { (L_{d}i_{d})^{2} + (L_{q}i_{q})^{2} } \sqrt { i^{2}_{d} + i^{2}_{q} } } =  \frac {(10 – 0.2) 0.098 ⋅ 0.995}{ \sqrt { (10⋅ 0.098)^{2} + (0.2 ⋅ 0.995)^{2} } ⋅ \sqrt { 1} } = 0.955
