IYstar = I Bstar =

The real and reactive power delivered to the star circuit is then given by:
Pstar = 3V phs I star cos( ) = 3 (400)(64.05)cos(56.31) = 24.62kW Qstar = 3V phs I star sin ( ) = 3 (400)(64.05)sin (56.31) = 36.92kVar

The delta load impedance is given by:


Z delta = 6 + j 6 = 6 2 tan 1

6 = 6 245 6

For the delta load the phase to phase current is given by:

The real and reactive power delivered to the delta circuit is given by:

Q = 3V phs I phs phs sin ( ) = 3(400)(47.14)sin (45) = 40kVar

The overall input line current is given by:


I R = I Rstar + I R = 64.05 A 56.31 + 81.65 A 45 = 145.0 A 49.97 IY = IYstar + I Y = 64.05 A 176.31 + 81.65 A 165 = 145.0 A 169.97 I B = I Bstar + I B = 64.05 A 296.31 + 81.65 A 285 = 145.0 A 289.97

Question 2.
A three phase, 4 wire, 415V 50Hz supply has balanced voltages and rotation sequence RYB. The following loads are all connected to the supply: (a) A single resistance of 12 between the R line and Neutral. (b) An inductive impedance of (2 + j8) between the B line and Neutral. (c) A capacitor of 120F between the R line and the Y line. (d) A three-phase, delta connected induction motor (balanced load) taking a total power of 10kW at 0.75 p.f. lagging. Calculate: (i) (ii) the magnitude and phase angle of the current in each of the four lines coming from the supply. The total power taken from the supply.

Solution.
VR IR IRstar 12 ZMot 120f (2+j8) VB VY VN IB IBstar IY IN IB IY IYB ZMot IR IBR ZMot IRY

Since the unbalanced load has a neutral point connected, then the star point voltage is fixed at the 0V reference point. There is hence a neutral current flowing that needs to be calculated. The three line to line voltages are defined as:
VRY = 415V30 VYB = 415V 90 VBR = 415V 210

So for the star load the three phase voltages are defined as:
VR = 415V 3 0 VY = 415V 3 120 VB = 415V 3 240

First calculate the R-phase current due to the load in part (a):
I R _ star = VRN 41500 = = 19.9667 A00 R 312

The current in the B-phase inductor in part (b) is given by: 3

The RY current in the capacitor in part c is given by:


I RY _ cap = VRY 41530 0 = = 15.6451 A1200 Z c 1 j (2 50 )(120 f )

For the inductive load the real power is 10kW at 0.75pf lagging. So the power factor angle is:
= cos 1 (0.75) = 41.410

So the reactive power is given by:


Q = P tan = 10,000 tan 41.410 = 8.192 kVar

Since:
S = P + jQ = 3V phs I L

Then the three line currents feeding the induction machine load are given by:
IR _ = 3 0

IY _ =

3 120

IB _ =

10,000 + j8192 415 3 120

So the four supply line currents become:


I R = I R _ star + I RY _ cap + I R _ = 26.09 A 2.82 0

IY = I RY _ cap + IY _ = 21.77 A 116.630


I B = I B _ star + I B _ = 45.56 A 57.390

I N = I R _ star + I B _ star = 45.57 A 26.310

The total power taken from the supply is given by:


S = VR I R + VY IY + VB I B = 16.473kW + j 9.080kVar

= 18.55 A 41.41

10,000 + j8192

To calculate the load currents it is necessary to calculate the star point voltage. This requires a reference point, and the voltage VRN can be taken for this point. This voltage is exactly 1 / 3 times the line to line voltage which is precisely known. So we can write:
VRY + VYB + VBR = 0

I R + IY + I B = 0

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 =

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

Y2 =

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

Equating this expression with the general transmission line solutions gives:
2

Y3 = Y1 [cosh ( d ) 1] =

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

(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

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:


Vi p +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

(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.

The Thevenin equivalent impedance of the network when viewed from voltage bus 1 is: X Th = ( X G1 + X T 1 ) //[X 12 + ( X 24 + X T 2 + X G 2 ) // ( X 23 + X T 3 + X G 3 )] X Th = ( j 0.24 + j 0.4 ) //[ j 0.2 + ( j 0.2 + j 0.1 + j 0.17 ) // ( j 0.2 + j 0.1333 + j 0.24 )] X Th = ( j 0.64) // ( j 0.4583) X Th = j 0.2670 p.u. Part (b) The pre-fault voltage, neglecting pre-fault currents is:

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:

ZA
ZCA ZAB

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 =

The input current to a Westinghouse CO-8 relay is 10A. Determine the relay operating time for the following current tap settings (CTS) and time dial settings (TDS). (a) CTS = 1.0, TDS = 0.5. (b) CTS = 2.0, TDS = 1.5. (c) CTS = 2.0, TDS = 7. (d) CTS = 3.0, TDS = 7. (e) CTS = 12.0, TDS = 1. Answer: From the inverse time curves : (a) Time to operate : 0.1s. (b) Time to operate : 0.55s.

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).

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

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

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.

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:

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 ( )

Question 3.
Figure 1 below shows a single phase lossless transmission line composed of two different sections of underground cable. The first section has a characteristic impedance 100 and a one-way propagation time of 0.1ms, while the second section has a characteristic impedance 400 and a one-way propagation time of 0.1ms. A surge voltage of 20kV is applied to the line through a 100 impedance, and the line is terminated with a 800 load impedance. Plot the voltages at the transmission line junction, and the sending and receiving ends of the total line for the first 0.6ms.
