Lecture 10b - Distributed Parameters Single Phase Ex 1&2

The document presents two worked examples related to power system transients analysis. The first example involves calculating and plotting voltage at a 200 Ohm load and the junction of an overhead line and cable after a surge, while the second example focuses on a single-phase circuit with a 500 Ohm load and a pre-insertion resistor, requiring voltage plots for both the load and junction after a switching operation. Both examples emphasize the need for simulation verification and include specific circuit parameters and characteristics.

Worked Example 1

A surge with the characteristics shown travels down an overhead line towards a cable that has a
resistive termination. The circuit, illustrated below, has the following characteristics:

O/H line Zo = 300 Ohms velocity = 980 ft/microsec. (0.298704 km/microsec)


Cable Zo = 50 Ohms velocity = 400 ft/microsec. (0.12192 km/microsec)
Load Z = 200 Ohms

Calculate:
(a) Plot the voltage at the 200 Ohm load resistor, Point 2, as a function of time for
a time period of 10 microseconds after the disturbance hits the junction
between the overhead and underground cable.
(b) Plot the voltage at the junction of the overhead and underground cable, point 1, as
a function of time for a time period of 10 microseconds after the disturbance hits
the junction between the overhead and underground cable.
(c) Verify the results in (a) and (b) using an EMTP simulation. Include your code and
plots of the voltage at Point 1 and Point 2.

Worked Example 2

The single-phase 12.47kV (line-to-line) circuit shown below is energized at the peak of the voltage
cycle. The remote end is connected to a 500 Ohm load. The pre-insertion resistor has a value of 300
Ohms. The cables have the following characteristics:

O/H line Zo = 300 Ohms velocity = 980 ft/microsec. (0.298704 km/microsec)


Cable Zo = 50 Ohms velocity = 490 ft/microsec. (0.149352 km/microsec)

Assuming that the source can be modeled as a constant DC voltage source:


(a) Plot the voltage at the 500 Ohm load resistor, Point C, as a function of time for
a time period of 3.0 microseconds after the switching operation occurs. Make sure to
include numerical values for the amplitude levels and transition times.

(b) Plot the voltage at the junction of the overhead and underground cable, point B, as a
function of time for a time period of 3.0 microseconds after the switching operation occurs.
