MIDTERM EXAM 2 PROBLEM-1 [60 points]: A 60Hz 3-phase transmission line is 175mi long. It has a total series impedance of (35+j140) ohm and a shunt admittnce of 930 × 10−6 ∠90° S. It delivers 40 MW at 220 kV, with 90% power factor lagging. Find the voltage and power at the sending end using (a) the short line model, (b) the nominal pi-model and (c) the long line model. PROBLEM 2 [40 points]: A three-phase transposed line is composed of one ACSR 1,431,000cmil, 47/7 Bobolink conductor per phase with flat horizontal spacing of 11 meters as shown in Figure 1a. The conductors have a diameter of 3.625cm and a GMR of 1.439cm. The line is to be replaced by a threeconductor bundle of ACSR 477,000cmil, 26/7 Hawk conductors having the same cross-sectional area of aluminum as the single-conductor line. The conductors have a diameter of 2.1793cm and a GMR of 0.8839cm. The new line will also have a flat horizontal configuration, but it is to be operated at a higher voltage and therefore the phase spacing is increased to 14m as measured from the center of the bundles. The spacing between the conductors in the bundle is 45cm as shown in Figure 1b. Determine: (a) The percentage change in the inductance. (b) The percentage change in the power transmitted. (c) The percentage change in the capacitance. (d) The change in the charging current (Line to line voltage is 400kV). Figure 1a. L 2 x10 7 ln Deq Ds 𝑥𝐿 = 𝑗𝜔𝐿 ( H / m) Figure 1b.
