The short circuit characteristic of alternator is a straight line due to __________(a) no saturation(b) no armature reaction(c) no eddy current(d) all of the mentionedThis question was addressed to me during an online interview.I'm obligated to ask this question of Phasor Diagram of a Cylindrical Rotor Alternator topic in division Synchronous Generators of Electrical Machines

Answer»

The CORRECT answer is (a) no saturation

For explanation: At the SHORT CIRCUIT of the alternator is having the LINEAR relation as the armature does not enter the saturation mode due to demagnetizing nature of armature REACTION.
