10.29 A 208-V (rms) balanced three-phase source supports twoloads connected in parallel. Each load is itself a balanced threephaseload. Determine the line current, given that load 1 is 12 kVAat pf 1 = 0.7 leading and load 2 is 18 kVA at pf 2 = 0.9 lagging.
10.31 A 240-V (rms), 60-Hz Y-source is connected to a balancedthree-phase Y-load by four wires, one of which is the neutral wire.If the load is 400 kVA at pf old = 0.6 lagging, what size capacitorsshould be added to change the power factor to pf new = 0.95lagging?
Cable A Cable A is a coaxial cable of constant cross section. The metal regions are shaded in grey and are made of copper. The solid central wire has radius a = 5mm, the outer tube inner radius b = 20mm and thickness t = 5mm. The dielectric spacer is Teflon, of relative permittivity &r = 2.1 and breakdown strength 350kV/cm. A potential difference of 1kV is applied across the conductors, with centre conductor positive and outer conductor earthed. Before undertaking any COMSOL simulations we'll first perform some theoretical analysis of Cable A based on the EN2076 lectures, to make sense of the simulations. Calculate the radial electric field of cable A at radial positions r b. Also calculate the maximum operating voltage of cable A, assuming a safety margin of ×2, and indicate where on the cable's cross section dielectric breakdown is most likely to occur.
