ELEC 4100 ELECTRICAL ENERGY SYSTEMS TUTORIAL 3 : PER UNIT SYSTEM - SOLUTION Question 1.
A single Phase 50kVA, 2400/240V, 60Hz distribution transformer is used as a step down transformer at the load end of a 2400V feeder whose series impedance is (1.0 + j2.0) ohms. The equivalent series impedance of the transformer is (1.0 + j2.5) ohms referred to the high voltage (i.e. primary) side. The transformer is delivering rated total power at 0.8 power factor lagging, and at rated secondary voltage. Neglecting the transformer excitation current, determine: (a) The voltage at the transformer primary terminals, (b) The voltage at the sending end of the feeder, (c) The real and reactive power delivered to the sending end of the feeder. Work in the Per Unit System, using the transformer ratings as base quantities. Answer : First Determine the base quantities. Sbase = 50kVA Vbase1 = 2400V Vbase2 = 240V Therefore:
I base1 = S base 50,000 = = 20.833 A Vbase1 2400

I base2 = Z base1 = Z base 2 =

Sbase 50,000 = = 208.333 A Vbase2 240 Vbase1 2400 = = 115.2 I base1 20.8333 Vbase 2 240 = = 1.152 I base 2 208.333

So the per unit impedances become:


Z1 _ eqpu =
Z line _ pu =

Z1 _ eq Z base1

1 + j 2.5 = 0.00868 + j 0.0217 p.u 115.2

Z line 1 + j2 = = 0.00868 + j 0.01736 p.u Z base1 115.2

Now the load power is given by:


Sload = 50kVA cos1 (0.8) = 50kVA 36.90

Or:
Sload = 50kVA cos 1 (0.8) = 1.0 p.u. 36.90

So the load current is given by:

TUTORIAL THREE : PER UNIT SYSTEM - SOLUTION

S I load _ pu = load V load _ pu

p.u. 36.90 1.000


= 1.0 p.u. 36.90

The load current is then:


I load = 208.333 A 36.90

(a) The voltage at the transformer primary terminals is then given by:
V1 _ pu = V2 _ pu + I load _ pu Z1 _ eqpu V1 _ pu = 1.000 + 1.0 36.90 (0.00868 + j 0.0217 )
V1 _ pu = 1.020.690 p.u

The transformer primary voltage is then:


V1 = 2448V 0.690

(b) The supply voltage is given by:


VS _ pu = V2 _ pu + I load _ pu Z1 _ eqpu + Z line _ pu

VS _ pu = 1.000 + 1.0 36.90 (0.001736 + j 0.03906 )


VS _ pu = 1.0371.150 p.u

The supply voltage is then:


VS = 2489 V 1.150

(c) The supply real and reactive power is then given by:
S S = VS I load S S = 1.0371.150 1.036.90

)(

S S = 1.03738.02 0 = 0.8169 p.u. + j 0.6387 p.u

So the real and reactive power are:


P = 40.845kW

Q = 31.936kVar

Question 2.
Three zones of a single phase distribution level circuit are identified in figure 1. The zones are connected by transformers T1 and T2, whose ratings are also shown. Using base values of 3MVA and 11kV in zone 1, draw the per unit circuit and determine the per-unit impedances and the perunit source voltage. Then calculate the load current both in per-unit and in amperes. Transformer winding resistances and shunt admittance branches are neglected.

Zone 1 Vs = 13 kV

Zone 2

Zone 3 Rload = 5.2

Xline = j0.2 T1 3MVA 11 kV/6.6 k V Xeq = 0.1 p.u. T2 2MVA 7.2 kV /3.3 kV Xeq = 0.12 p.u.

Xload = j2.9

Figure 1 : Three Zone Distribution System for question 2. Answer : Choose Bases: Sbase = 3MVA Vbase1 = 11kV Vbase2 = 6.6kV
Vbase3 =

(6.6kV )(3.3kV ) = 3.025kV


7.2kV

This requires:
I base1 = I base 2 = I base3 = Sbase = 272.727 A Vbase1 Sbase = 454.545 A Vbase 2 Sbase = 991.736 A Vbase3

Similarly:

V Z base1 = base1 = 40.333 Sbase


Z base 2 = Vbase 2 = 14.520 Sbase

Z base3 =

Vbase3 = 3.050 Sbase

So the per unit impedance values are:

7.2kV 3MVA = 0.12 6.6kV 2MVA

The per unit supply voltage is then:


Vs _ pu = 13kV = 1.182 p.u. 11kV

The per unit equivalent circuit is then given by:


Zone 1 Vs = 1.182 p.u. Zone 2 Zone 3 Rload p.u. = 1.705 p.u. XT1eq p.u. = j0.1 p.u. Xline p.u. = j0.01377pu XT2eq = j0.2142 p.u. Xload p.u. = j0.9508 p.u

The load current is then given by: I load _ pu =


I load _ pu =

I load _ pu = 0.5546 36.87 0 p.u. So the load current is : I load = 550.0 A 36.87 0

Question 3.
A balanced Y-connected voltage source with Eab = 4800 V is applied to a balanced load with Z = 3040 ohms. The line impedance between the source and the load is ZL = 185 p.u. for each phase. Calculate the per-unit and actual current in phase a of the line using Sbase3 = 100kVA and VbaseLL = 600V. Answer: Define the base quantities as: Sbase3 = 100kVA
Sbase1 = 33.333kVA

VbaseLL = 600V
VbaseLN =
Z base =

600 V = 346.412V 3

VbaseLL 2 VbaseLN 2 = = 3.6 Sbase3 Sbase1

I base = So :

Sbase3 3VbaseLL

= 96.225 A

Eab _ pu =
Z _ pu =
ZY _ pu =

48000 = 0.8 p.u.00 600


30400 = 8.333 p.u.400 3.6
Z _ pu 3 = 2.7778 p.u.400

and

Ea _ pu = 0.8 p.u. 300

Z line _ pu =

1850 = 0.2778 p.u.850 3.6

So the total impedance seen by the source is: Z tot _ pu = ZY _ pu + Z line _ pu = 2.9807 p.u.43.780 Therefore the supply current is given by:
I a _ pu = Va _ pu Z tot _ pu = 0.8 p.u. 300 = 0.2684 73.780 p.u. 0 2.9807 p.u.43.78

So the actual load current is given by: I a = 25.83 A 73.780

Question 4.
A balanced Y-connected voltage source with Eag = 2770 V is applied to a balanced Y load in parallel with a balanced load, where ZY = 30 + j10 ohms and Z = 45 j25 ohms. The Y load is solidly grounded. Using base values of Sbase1 = 10kVA and VbaseLN = 277 V, calculate the source current Ia in per-unit and in amperes. Answer : Define the base quantities as: Sbase3 = 30kVA
Sbase1 = 10kVA

VbaseLN = 277V VbaseLL = 3VbaseLN = 479.77V


Z base = I base = VbaseLL = 7.6729 3Sbase3 Sbase3 3VbaseLL = 36.101A

So the per unit impedance values are given by:


Z _ pu = 45 j 25 = 6.709 p.u. 29.0550 7.6729

ZY _ pu =

30 + j10 = 4.121 p.u.18.4350 7.6729


Z _ pu 3

Now the delta load can be converted to an equivalent star load as:
Z toY _ pu = = 2.2364 p.u. 29.0550

The total per-phase impedance is then given by:


Z tot _ pu = Z toY _ pu // ZY _ pu

Z tot _ pu =

Z toY _ pu ZY _ pu = 1.5705 12.740 Z toY _ pu + ZY _ pu

The per unit source current is then given by: I a _ pu = So the source current is :
I a = 22.99 A 12.740

Eag _ pu = 0.6367 12.740 Z tot _ pu

TUTORIAL FIVE : LOAD FLOW - SOLUTION

ELEC 4100 ELECTRICAL ENERGY SYSTEMS TUTORIAL 5 : LOAD FLOW SOLUTION. Question 1.
Answer : (a) For sinusoidal time varying voltage and current waveforms, define:
v(x, t ) = V (x )e jt

i(x, t ) = I (x )e jt

Then substituting into the partial differential equations gives:


e jt e jt dV (x ) = [ rI (x ) jLI (x )]e jt = zI (x )e jt dx dI (x ) = [ GV (x ) jCV (x )]e jt = yV (x )e jt dx

These expressions can be simplified as:


dV (x ) = zI (x ) dx dI (x ) = yV (x ) dx

Differentiating with respect to x:


d 2V (x ) dx
2

= z = y

dI (x ) = zyV (x ) dx dV (x ) = zyI (x ) dx

d 2 I (x ) dx 2

These expressions are separate, second order linear differential equations involving one spatial variable only. (b) From the -section model it can be shown that:
Vr = Vs

(I s VsY2 )
Y1

Rearranging:
Vr = Vs 1 +

Y2 I s Y1 Y1

Comparing this expression with the general transmission line solutions provided gives:
Y1 =

1 Z C sinh ( d )

Using this value and again comparing with the general transmission line solutions gives:
Y2 =

[cosh ( d ) 1] = 1 tanh d Z C sinh ( d ) Z C 2

Ir = Is 1+

Y3 Y VsY3 1 + Y2 + 2 Y1 Y1

Equating this expression with the general transmission line solutions gives:
Y3 = Y1 [cosh ( d ) 1] =

[cosh ( d ) 1] = 1 tanh d = Y2 Z C sinh ( d ) Z C 2

(b) The -section model of a transmission line is used in load flow analysis since load flow is interested only in the steady state characteristics at the voltage buses in the network. Hence it is only necessary to consider the behaviour at the terminating ends of the transmission line, not in the middle of the line. A lumped element model is sufficient to provide this information. Furthermore the full distributed model is used to predict dynamic characteristics along the line, but since this information is irrelevant for load flow it is not necessary to utilise the full model.

Question 2.
Answer : (a) The diagonal elements are the self admittances at each node of the network, and are the sum of all admittances connected to that node. The off-diagonal elements are the mutual admittances between two nodes of a network, and are the negative values of the admittances linking the two nodes in question. The YBUS matrix is square since the network consists of N buses, and for the ith bus there are N-1 potential mutual connections, and 1 self admittance hence the matrix is square. The matrix is symmetric since the mutual connections between buses i and k are the same as the connections between buses k and i. The matrix is sparse since in power systems there is generally a low level of connectivity between the nodes, with couplings only between a few adjacent couplings. Hence the bulk of the mutual couplings are zero, and so the matrix is sparse. (b) The complex conjugate of the apparent power at bus i can be written as:
Si = Vi I i
Si = Pi jQi = Vi

y V

Where the yik are the elements of the admittance bus. (c) The apparent power is given by:

The Gauss-Seidel implementation of a voltage calculation is:

i 1

Since the Gauss-Seidel method uses the most recently available iteration data it generally shows a faster convergence rate than the Gauss method. Furthermore the Gauss method must store the pth and (p+1)th bus data, whereas the Gauss-Seidel discards the previous data as soon as the new data has become available. This results in a memory allocation and storage requirement advantage for the Gauss-Seidel approach, and furthermore programming the Gauss-Seidel method is simpler. (d) The apparent power is given by:
Si = Pi jQi = Vi

Define:

(f)

Since the Newton Raphson method uses a first order Taylor series approximation of the non-linear power flow equations to iteratively find a solution, it has a much faster convergence rate than the Gauss or Gauss Seidel methods. These latter methods are limited by the sparsity of the admittance bus matrix, which limits the rate that corrective terms can propagate through the solution. The Swing Bus is needed to condition the YBUS admittance matrix so as to make solutions to the power flow problem possible. Without conditioning it may be possible to have many solutions to the load flow problem which satisfy the constraints. Hence by fixing one bus with respect to earth potential one of these many solution cases is selected. The Swing Bus also serves the purpose of carrying the slack or net power from the rest of the network.

Question 2.
Faults at bus 1 in question 1 are of interest. Determine the Thevenin equivalent impedance of each sequence network as viewed from the fault bus. The pre-fault voltage is 1.0 p.u. Pre-fault load currents and -Y transformer phase shifts are neglected. Answer: The first step towards obtaining the Thevenin equivalent networks for the sequence networks above is to simplify the networks using a Y- transformation. Recall that the Y- transformation is of the form:

ZB ZC
ZBC

ZA = ZB = ZC =

Z AB Z CA Z AB + Z BC + Z CA Z AB Z BC Z AB + Z BC + Z CA Z CA Z BC Z AB + Z BC + Z CA

Z AB = Z BC = Z CA =

Therefore the positive sequence fault current is given by:

Then:
I a = [I 0 + I1 + I 2 ] = 0 : Then via KCL, the three sequence currents must form a node.

TUTORIAL TEN : TRANSIENT STABILITY SOLUTIONS

To apply the equal area criterion, it is necessary to determine the maximum possible swing angle, and the initial operating angle. This is done as follows:
Pe _ prefault = 2.462 sin 0 = Pm = 1.0

1.0 0 = sin 1 2.462


0 = 23.960

Similarly:
Pe _ prefault = 2.133sin (1800 m ) = Pm = 1.0

1.0 m = 1800 sin 1 2.133


m = 1520

Now apply the equal area criterion.


1

(1.0 0.9143 sin ) d =

( 2.133sin 1.0 ) d

( m 0 ) + 2.133cos m 0.9143cos 0 = ( 2.133 0.9143) cos 1


0.4835 = 1.219 cos 1
0.4835 1 = cos 1 1.219
1 = 113.40

This is the critical clearing angle.

Question 2.
Again apply the equal angle criterion, but with:

This is a non-linear equation, which can be solved iteratively using the Newton-Raphson method. Recall that the NR method approximates a solution using the local gradient of the function as:

y f ( x p ) =x + p f '( x )
p

p p max p +1 = max p + (1 2.133sin max p ) 2.017 max 2.133cos max

Solving Iteratively:
max1 = 1.0 , max 5 = 1.1545 , max 2 = 1.1704 , max 6 = 1.1545 , max 3 = 1.1546 , max 7 = 1.1545 max 4 = 1.1545 , max 8 = 1.1545

So after 8 iterations the solution is:


max = 66.150

Since this rotor angle is well below the maximum possible stable rotor angle, the generator can remain synchronised to the infinite bus.

Question 3.
Substituting in the system parameters. 1.0 = 0.03183 Or: d 2 d 31.42 = 2 + 0.3142 + 77.35sin dt dt Now consider small deviations in the rotor angle. If the rotor angle changes from 0 to 0 + , then:
sin ( 0 + ) = sin ( 0 ) cos ( ) + cos ( 0 ) sin ( ) = sin ( 0 ) + cos ( 0 )

d 2 d + 0.01 + 2.462sin 2 dt dt

So: 31.42 = Changes to:


31.42 = d 2 ( 0 + ) d ( 0 + ) + 0.3142 + 77.35 2 sin ( 0 ) + cos ( 0 ) dt dt

d 2 0 d + 0.3142 0 + 77.35sin 0 2 dt dt

The difference becomes:

Taking the Laplace transform:

Solving for the roots of the quadratic equation:


s1 , s2 = 0.3142 0.0987 309.4 cos ( 0 ) 2

For the system to be stable, it is necessary that:

0.3142 + 0.0987 309.4 cos ( 0 ) < 0 0.0987 309.4 cos ( 0 ) < 0.3142

0.0987 309.4 cos ( 0 ) < 0.0987 309.4 cos ( 0 ) > 0


For cos ( 0 ) > 0 , it is necessary to have 900 < 0 < +900 . This is the small signal stability constraint on the system.

So B23, B12 and B1 must coordinate with B34 in the sequence (B34 B23 B12 B1). If B43 fails to operate, B4 would operate as a backup, so B4 must coordinate with B43 in the sequence (B43 B4).

NOTE: This problem illustrates the infeed effect. Fault currents from line 2-3 can cause the zone 3 B12 relay to under-reach. As such, remote backup of line 2-4 at B12 is ineffective.

TUTORIAL ELEVEN : PROTECTION SOLUTIONS

For the bolted three phase fault at bus 4 the system of figure 4 can be reduced to:

I12 Z12 V1 V2

I32 I24 Z24 Z23 V3

The primary impedance seen by the B12 relay is then:


Z apparent = V1 ' V1 ' V2 ' V2 ' V ' = + = Z12 + 2 I12 ' I12 ' I12 ' I12 '

Z apparent = Z12 +

Z 24 ( I12 '+ I 32 ' ) I12 '

Z apparent = Z12 + Z 24 + Z 24

I 32 I12

Part (b): The apparent secondary impedance seen by B12 for the bolted three phase fault at bus 4 is:
Z apparent ' =

( NV

Z apparent

NI )

Where NV and NI are the turns ratios of the potential and current transformers for B12. Z apparent ' =
Z apparent ' =

Z12 + Z 24 (1 + I 32 I12 ) ( 3 + j 40 ) + ( 6 + j80 )(1 + I 32 I12 ) = ( NV N I ) ( NV N I )

(9 + 6 ( I

32

I12 ) ) + j (120 + 80 ( I 32 I12 ) )

( NV

NI )

Also the zone 3 relay for B12 is set for 100% reach of line 1-2, and 120% of line 2-4. So: Zr3 =

( 3 + j 40 ) + 1.2 ( 6 + j80 ) = 10.2 + j136 ( NV N I ) ( NV N I )

Comparing this expression with the case for the balanced three phase fault when I 32 I12 > 0.2 shows that:

Z apparent ' >

10.2 + j136 ( NV N I )

So the apparent impedance for the three phase fault is greater than the zone 3 set point, and B12 will not trip in this case. Remote backup in this case is not effective.

ELEC 4100 ELECTRICAL ENERGY SYSTEMS TUTORIAL 12 : TRANSMISSION LINES SOLUTIONS Question 1.
A single phase transmission line of 1p.u. length with distributed parameters R, L, C and G has a step voltage E applied to the sending end of the line. The general solutions to the transmission line partial differential equations is given by:

V ( x, s ) = k1e x + k2 e x

and

I ( x, s ) =

1 k1e x k2 e x Z0

Where:

( R + sL )( G + sC )

Z0 =

( R + sL ) ( G + sC )

a) For the case determine the and current. b) For the case determine the and current.

where the receiving end of the transmission line is short circuited constants k1 and k2, and derive simplified expressions for the voltage where the receiving end of the transmission line is open circuited constants k1 and k2, and derive simplified expressions for the voltage

Answer : Part (a)


The boundary conditions are :

V ( 0, s ) = E ,

V (1, s ) = 0

Substituting these constraints into the general solutions gives:

V ( 0, s ) = k1 + k2 = E
V (1, s ) = k1e + k2 e = 0 From the second equation:
k1 = k2 e 2

Substituting this expression into the first equation gives:

k2 (1 e2 ) = E or k2 = So:
k1 = k2 e 2 = e E 2sinh ( )

E e E e E = = (1 e2 ) ( e e ) 2sinh ( )

The voltage expression for the transmission line is then given by:

V ( x, s ) =

E e (1 x ) e (1 x ) 2sinh ( )

The current expression for the transmission line is then given by:

I ( x, s ) =
I ( x, s ) =

1 E e (1 x ) + e (1 x ) Z 0 2sinh ( )
E cosh ( (1 x ) ) sinh ( ) Z0

Part (b) The boundary conditions are :

V ( 0, s ) = E ,

I (1, s ) = 0

Substituting these constraints into the above expressions for the voltage and current reveals:

V ( 0, s ) = k1 + k2 = E
I (1, s ) = 1 k1e k2 e =0 Z0

From the second expression involving the current at the receiving end of the line:

k1 = k2 e 2
Substituting into the expression for the voltage at the sending end of the line: k2 (1 + e 2 ) = E And so: k1 = Hence: e 2 E e E e E = = 1 + e 2 e + e 2 cosh ( ) or k2 = E e E e E = = 1 + e 2 e + e 2 cosh ( )

V ( x, s ) =

e E e E e x + e x 2 cosh ( ) 2 cosh ( )
cosh ( (1 x ) ) cosh ( )

V ( x, s ) = E Similarly

I ( x, s ) =

A single phase lossless transmission line of 150m length has an inductance and shunt capacitance per unit length of L = 1H/m and C = 11.111 pF/m. The line is terminated by a 600 resistance. The transmission line is struck by lightning through an effective 100 impedance at the sending end of the line, creating a surge voltage of 30kV peak and 50s duration.

a) Determine the characteristic impedance, travelling wave propagation velocity and the one-way transit time for the transmission line. b) Draw the equivalent circuit of the transmission line under the surge voltage conditions, and calculate the reflection coefficients at each end of the transmission line. c) Plot the voltages at the sending and receiving ends of the line for the first 5s.
