400MVA power is transmitted with 380kV voltage and 18.1948 degree power angle with the help of a 500 km long power transmission line. For this transmission line, the loss should not be more than 2.4% of the nominal active power. The resistivity of the conductor is 2.85*10^-2 (ohm*mm^2/m) In this case; a) How many amperes is the phase-phase current value in the line? B) How many ohms is the resistance of one phase of the line? C) What is the cross section of a phase in the line, in mm^2?
Short Transmission Line
A short transmission line is a transmission line that has a length less than 80 kilometers, an operating voltage level of less than 20 kV, and zero capacitance effect.
Power Flow Analysis
Power flow analysis is a topic in power engineering. It is the flow of electric power in a system. The power flow analysis is preliminary used for the various components of Alternating Current (AC) power, such as the voltage, current, real power, reactive power, and voltage angles under given load conditions and is often known as a load flow study or load flow analysis.
Complex Form
A power system is defined as the connection or network of the various components that convert the non-electrical energy into the electric form and supply the electric form of energy from the source to the load. The power system is an important parameter in power engineering and the electrical engineering profession. The powers in the power system are primarily categorized into two types- active power and reactive power.
