transformer no-load current test
we have 4 nos 100MVA transformer at 220/34.5 kv rating, ynd1 group.
as per GTP drg current is 0.5A at no-load when we applied at rated voltage level.
but in site testing we applied only 415v at primary side i.e 220kv side. what will be the no-load current at that time?

Generator Trippings-Simulation
We have generating units where the existing T90GS 4.2 MW machine will be operated in parallel with new SG-400 machine (11-13 MW) at rated load.. If the SG-400 trips while operating in parallel with existing T90GS 4.2 MW machine, then running plant load will be absorbed by the existing T90GS machine
Non-Stop Bullet Train Concept
From Neatorama:
A virtual high-five goes out to the engineer(s) that came up with this idea. As wonderfully fast as the bullet train is, all that stopping and starting takes time, which adds up. "A mere 5 min stop per station (elderly passengers cannot be hurried) will result in a
