  • The load sharing between two steam-driven alternators operating in parallel may be adjusted by varying the steam supply to the prime mover.
  • In a parallel operation, multiple generators are connected together to supply power to a common load.
  • The load sharing between the generators should be balanced to ensure stable and efficient operation.
  • The steam supply to the prime mover determines the mechanical power output of the generator, which in turn determines the electrical power output.
  • Therefore, by adjusting the steam supply, the output power of the generator can be varied, which affects the load sharing between the generators.
  • If one generator is supplying more power than the other, reducing the steam supply to the first generator and increasing the steam supply to the second generator will shift the load from the first generator to the second generator.
  • Similarly, if the second generator is supplying more power than the first generator, the steam supply can be adjusted in the opposite direction.
