Would the reactive power(VARs) be changed while the real power(WATTs) output increased/decreased from the generator by increasing/decreasing governor setpoint?
assumption:
1. generator field current is fixed
2. this generator is paralled with infinite bus

The other similar question is : Would the real power be changed while the reactive power increased/decreased from the generator by increasing/decreasing field current?
assumption:
1. generator governor setpoint is fixed
2. this generator is paralled with infinite bus

That would be great if someone can provide the explanation with phasor diagram.

Thanks,
Andy
