MODELLING OF TRANSMISSION LI
Aim: (i) To determine the positive sequence line parameters L and C per phase /km of a 3 phase single and double circuit transmission line for different conductor ar rangements. (ii) To understand modeling and performance of medium lines. Software required: MATLAB Procedure: 1. Enter the command window of the MAT LAB. 2. Create a new M file by selecting file New M- File. 3. Type and save the program in the editor window 4. Execute the program by pressing tools run. 5. View the result. Theory: Transmission line has four parameters namely resistance, inductance, cap acitance and conductance. The inductance and capacitance are due to the effect o f magnetic and electric fields around the conductor. The resistance of the condu ctor is best determined from the manufacturers data, the inductance and the capa citance can be evaluated using the formula. Problem: A 3 phase over head line 200km long r=0.16/km & conductor diameter of 2cm wi th spacings 4,5,6 transposed. Find A, B, C, D constants sending end voltage, cur rents, power factor & power when the line is delivering full load of 50MW at 132 KV, 0.8 pf(lag), transmission efficiency, receiving end voltage & regulation. Inductance: General formula L= 0.2ln(Dm/Ds) Where Dm = geometric mean distance (GMD). Ds = geometric mean radius (GMR) I. Single phase 2 wire system: GMD =D GMR = Where r= radius of the conductor. II. Three phase symmetrical spacing: GMD =D GMR = Where r= radius of the conductor III. Three phase asymmetrical transposed: GMD = geometric mean of the 3 distance of symmetrically placed conductors. = GMR = Where r= radius of the conductor Composite conductor lines: The inductance of composite conductor X is given by,Lx = 0.2ln(GMD/GMR) Where, GMD = GMR = Where
Bundled conductors: The GMR of bundled conductor is normally calculated, GMR of 2 sub-conductor, c= (Ds*d)1/2 GMR of 3 sub conductors, GMR of 4 sub conductors, Where, Ds is the GMR of each sub-conductor. d is bundle spacing. Phase double circuit transposed: The inductance per phase in milli henries per km is L= 0.2ln(GMD/GMRL) mH/km Where, GMRL is the equivalent geometric mean radius and is given by GMRL = (DSADSBDSC)1/3. Where, DSA, DSB and DSC are GMR of each phase group and given by DSA = DSB = DSC = Where, = GMR of bundled conductor if conductor a1,a2,..are bundled conductors. Dsb=ra1'=rb1=ra'2=ra'2=rb'2=rc'2 if a1,a2..are bundled conductors GMD is the equivalent GMD per phase and is given by GMD=[DAB*DBC*DCA]1/3 Where, DAB,DBC&DCA are GMD between each phase group A-B,B-C,C-A which are given by DAB=[Da1b1*Da1b2*Da2b1*Da2b2]1/4 DBC=[Db1c1*Db1c2*Db2c1*Db2c2]1/4 DCA=[Dc1a1*Dc2a1*Dc2a1*Dc2a2]1/4 Capacitance: A general formula for evaluating capacitance per phase in micro farad / km of a transmission line is given by,C= 0.0556/ln(GMD/GMR) F/km. Where, GMD is the geometric mean distance which is same as the defined for induc tance under various cases.
