A 500 MVA synchronous machine has H, = 5.6 MJ/MVA and a 1200 MVA machine has H₂ = 2.0 MJ/MVA. The two machines operate in parallel in a power station. What is the equivalent. H constant for the two, relative to a 100 MVA base?
Analyse several voltage and current situations in different loading scenarios in a simplified radial (transformer to consumption) medium-voltage power system example. There are only 2 nodes in the 35 kV line – node 0 from the 110/35 kV and node 1 with one consumer. Briefly reflect on the complexity of the calculations for known input or output voltage, as well as for fixed or voltage-dependent consumption in this simple power system model. Analyse and discuss the sensitivity of the voltage drop [in % of amplitude and the degrees of phase] with respect to the current level [in %] and to the power factor.

Construct the circuit in Figure 1 in the Circuit JS simulator. Note that the voltage source is given in RMS. Within Circuit JS while defining the max voltage of the voltage source include “rms” after the number to tell Circuit JS that this is a rms value. Also note that there are additional parameters when instantiating a transformer in Circuit JS. Leave these at the default values. Additionally, transformers may have problems simulating in Circuit JS. Answer the following: 1. From the simulation results, determine the power dissipated in R2 and compare to the expected value from the previous section.2. Change the transformer ratio (“Ratio” as a fraction when you “Edit…” the transformer component) to the value calculated in the previous section to provide maximum power transfer in R2. Note: In Circuit JS, Transformer Ratio = Primary/Secondary.3. Rerun the simulation, calculate the power dissipated in R2 and compare to the expected value from the previous section.4. Change the…
