Concept explainers

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, reactiv…

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 …

Textbook Question

Chapter 12.7, Problem 8PP

Assume that the two balanced loads in Fig. 12.22(a) are supplied by an 840-V rms 60-Hz line. Load 1 is Y-connected with 30 + j40 Ω per phase, while load 2 is a balanced three-phase motor drawing 48 kW at a power factor of 0.8 lagging. Assuming the abc sequence, calculate: (a) the complex power absorbed by the combined load, (b) the kVAR rating of each of the three capacitors Δ-connected in parallel with the load to raise the power factor to unity, and (c) the current drawn from the supply at unity power factor condition.
