PROBLEM:
The one line diagram of a simple power system is shown in figure. The neutral of each
generator is grounded through a current limiting reactor of 0.25/3 per unit on a
100MVA base. The system data expressed in per unit on a common 100 MVA base is
tabulated below. The generators are running on no load at their rated voltage and rated
frequency with their emf in phase.
Determine the fault current for the following faults.
(a) A balanced three phase fault at bus 3 through a fault impedance, Zf = j0.1 per unit.
(b) A single line to ground fault at bus3 through a fault impedance, Zf = j0.1 per unit.
(c) A line to line fault at bus3 through a fault impedance, Zf = j0.1 per unit.
(d) A double line to ground fault at bus3 through a fault impedance, Zf = j0.1 per unit.
MATLAB PROGRAM:
Z133 = j*0.22; Z033 = j*0.35; Zf = j*0.1;
disp('(a) Balanced three-phase fault at bus 3')
Ia3F = 1.0/(Z133+Zf)
disp('(b) Single line-to-ground fault at bus 3')
I03 = 1.0/(Z033 + 3*Zf + Z133 + Z133);
I012=[I03; I03; I03]
%sctm;
global sctm
a =cos(2*pi/3)+j*sin(2*pi/3);
sctm = [1 1 1; 1 a^2 a; 1 a a^2];
Iabc3 = sctm*I012
disp('(c) Line-to-line fault at bus 3')
I13 = 1.0/(Z133 + Z133 + Zf);
I012 = [0; I13; -I13]
Iabc3 = sctm*I012
disp('(d) Double line-to-ground fault at bus 3')
I13 = 1/(Z133 + Z133*(Z033+3*Zf)/(Z133+Z033+3*Zf));
I23 = -(1.0 - Z133*I13)/Z133;
I03 = -(1.0 - Z133*I13)/(Z033+3*Zf);
I012 = [I03; I13; I23]
Iabc3 = sctm*I012
