Slot: A1+TA1 Faculty: Dr. S. Hemamalini

1. A 50-Hz single-phase, two-wire overhead line has solid cylindrical copper conductors
with 1.5 cm diameter. The conductors are arranged in a horizontal configuration with
0.5 m spacing. Calculate in mH/km (a) the inductance of each conductor due to
internal flux linkages only, (b) the inductance of each conductor due to both internal
and external flux linkages, and (c) the total inductance of the line. If the diameter of
each conductor is: (a) increased by 20% to 1.8 cm, (b) decreased by 20% to 1.2 cm,
without changing the phase spacing. Compare the results.
Calculate the capacitance-to-neutral in F/m and the admittance-to-neutral in S/km for
the above problem. Neglect the effect of the earth plane.

2. A 50-Hz three-phase, three-wire overhead line has solid cylindrical conductors


arranged in the form of an equilateral triangle with 4 ft conductor spacing. Conductor
diameter is 0.5 in. Calculate the inductance in H/m and the inductive reactance in
Ω/km. If the phase spacing is: (a) increased by 20% to 4.8 ft, (b) decreased by 20% to
3.2 ft. Compare the results.

3. Determine the GMR of each of the unconventional stranded conductors shown in


Figure 1. All strands have the same radius r.

4. Calculate the inductive reactance in Ω/km of a bundled 500-kV, 50-Hz, three-phase


completely transposed overhead line having three ACSR conductors per bundle, with
0.5 m between conductors in the bundle. The horizontal phase spacings between
bundle centers are 10, 10, and 20 m.

5. A three-phase 50-Hz, 125-km overhead transmission line has flat horizontal spacing
with three identical conductors. The conductors have an outside diameter of 3.28 cm
with 12 m between adjacent conductors. (a) Determine the capacitive reactance-to-
neutral in Ω-m per phase and the capacitive reactance of the line in Ω per phase.
Neglect the effect of the earth plane.

6. A 25-km, 34.5-kV, 50-Hz three-phase line has a positive-sequence series impedance z


= 0.19+j0.34 Ω/km. The load at the receiving end absorbs 10 MVA at 33 kV.
Assuming a short line, calculate: (a) the ABCD parameters, (b) the sending-end
voltage for a load power factor of 0.9 lagging, (c) the sending-end voltage for a load
power factor of 0.9 leading.

7. A 200-km, 230-kV, 50-Hz three-phase line has a positive-sequence series impedance


z = 0:08+j0.48 Ω/km and a positive-sequence shunt admittance y=j3.33x10-6 S/ km.
At full load, the line delivers 250 MW at 0.99 p.f. lagging and at 220 kV. Using the
nominal π circuit, calculate: (a) the ABCD parameters, (b) the sending-end voltage
and current, and (c) the percent voltage regulation.

8. The per-phase impedance of a short three-phase transmission line is Ω.


The three-phase load at the receiving end is 900 kW at 0.8 p.f. lagging. If the line-to-
line sending-end voltage is 3.3 kV, determine (a) the receiving-end line-to-line
voltage in kV, and (b) the line current. Draw the phasor diagram with the line current
I , as reference. Also, find the following: (a) sending-end power factor, (b) sending-
end three-phase power, and (c) the three-phase line loss.

9. A 50-Hz, 100 km, three-phase overhead transmission line, constructed of ACSR


conductors, has a series impedance of (0.1826+j0.784) Ω/km per phase and a shunt
capacitive reactance-to-neutral of 185.5x103 90o Ω-km per phase. Using the nominal
π circuit for a medium-length transmission line, (a) determine the total series
impedance and shunt admittance of the line. (b) Compute the voltage, the current, and
the real and reactive power at the sending end if the load at the receiving end draws
200 MVA at unity power factor and at a line-to-line voltage of 230 kV. (c) Find the
percent voltage regulation of the line.

10. A 400-km, 500-kV, 50-Hz uncompensated three-phase line has a series impedance
z=0.03+ j0.35 Ω/km and a shunt admittance of y=j4.4x10-6 S/km. Calculate: (a) Zc,
(b) γl and (c) the exact ABCD parameters for this line. At full load the line delivers
1000 MW at unity power factor and at 475 kV. Calculate: (a) the sending-end voltage,
(b) the sending-end current, (c) the sending-end power factor, (d) the full-load line
losses, and (e) the percent voltage regulation.

11. A 300-km, 500-kV, 50-Hz three-phase uncompensated line has a series reactance
x=0.34 Ω/km and a shunt admittance y=j4.5x10-6 S/km. Neglecting losses, calculate:
(a) Zc, (b) γl (c) the ABCD parameters, (d) the wavelength λ of the line, in kilometers,
and (e) the surge impedance loading in MW(f) If the line is open circuited at the
receiving end and the receiving end voltage is maintained at 500 kV line to line,
determine the incident and reflected components of the sending end voltage and
current. Hence determine the sending end voltage and current of the line.
