A $$25$$ $$kVA,$$ $$400$$ $$V,$$ $$\Delta $$ - connected, $$3$$-phase, cylindrical rotor synchronous generator requires a field current of $$5$$ $$A$$ to maintain the rated armature current under short-circuit condition. For the same field current, the open-circuit voltage is $$360$$ $$V.$$ Neglecting the armature resistance and magnetic saturation, its voltage regulation (in $$\% $$ with respect to terminal voltage), when the generator delivers the rated load at $$0.8$$ $$pf$$ leading, at rated terminal voltage is ____________.

A $$3$$-phase, $$2$$-pole, $$50$$ $$Hz,$$ synchronous generator has a rating of $$250$$ $$MVA,$$ $$0.8$$ $$pf$$ lagging. The kinetic energy of the machine at synchronous speed is $$100$$ $$MJ.$$ The machine is running steadily at synchronous speed and delivering $$60$$ $$MW$$ power at a power angle of $$10$$ electrical degrees. If the load is suddenly removed, assuming the acceleration is constant for $$10$$ cycles, the value of the power angle after $$5$$ cycles is ________ electrical degrees.
