7 Chapter Introduction In this compendium, models and mathematical methods for static analysis of power systems are discussed. In chapter 2, the design of the power system is described and in chapter 3, the fundamental theory of alternating current is presented. Models of overhead power lines and transformers are given in chapter 4, and in chapter 5 some important theorems in three-phase analysis are discussed. In chapter 6 and 7, power system calculations in symmetrical conditions are performed by using the theorems presented earlier. Chapter 5 7 are based on the assumption that the power system loads can be modeled as impedance loads. This leads to a linear formulation of the problem, and by that, relatively easy forms of solution methods can be used. In some situations, it is more accurate to model the system loads as power loads. How the system analysis should be carried out in such conditions is elaborated on in chapter 8. In chapter 9, an overview of linear transformations in order to simplify the power system analysis, is given. In chapter 0 3, the basic concepts of analysis in un-symmetrical conditions are given. The use of symmetrical components is presented in detail in chapter 0. The modeling of lines, cables and transformers must be more detailed in un-symmetrical conditions, this is the topic of chapter 2. In chapter 3, an un-symmetrical, three-phase power system with impedance loads is analyzed. In chapter 3 3, it is assumed that the power system frequency is constant and the system components are linear, i.e. sinusoidal voltages gives sinusoidal currents. With non-linear components in the system, as high power electronic devices, non-sinusoidal currents and voltages will appear. The consequences such non-sinusoidal properties can have on the power system will be discussed briefly in chapter 4.

9 Chapter 2 Power system design 2. The development of the Swedish power system The Swedish power system started to develop around a number of hydro power stations, Porjus in Norrland, Älvkarleby in eastern Svealand, Motala in the middle of Svealand and Trollhättan in Götaland, at the time of the first world war. Later on, coal fired power plants located at larger cities as Stockholm, Göteborg, Malmö and Västerås came into operation. At the time for the second world war, a comprehensive proposal was made concerning exploitation of the rivers in the northern part of Sweden. To transmit this power to the middle and south parts of Sweden, where the heavy metal industry were located, a 220 kv transmission system was planned. Today, the transmission system is well developed with a nominal voltage of 220 or 400 kv. In rough outline, the transmission system consists of lines, transformers and sub-stations. A power plant can have an installed capacity of more than 000 MW, e.g. the nuclear power plants Forsmark 3 and Oskarshamn 3, whereas an ordinary private consumer can have an electric power need of some kw. This implies that electric power can be generated at some few locations but the consumption, which shows large variations at single consumers, can be spread all over the country. In Figure 2., the electricity supply in Sweden between 947 and TWh/year Conv. therm. pow. Nuclear power 50 Hydro power Figure 2.. Electricity supply in Sweden is given. The hydro power was in the beginning of this period the dominating source of electricity until the middle of the 960s when some conventional thermal power plants (oil fired power plants, industrial back pressure, etc.) were taken into service. In the beginning of the 970s, the first nuclear power plants were taken into operation and this power source 3

10 4 has ever after being the one showing the largest increase in generated electric energy. In recent years, the trend showing a continuous high increase in electric power consumption has been broken. On 30th November 999, the 600 MW nuclear power plant Barsebäck was closed due to a political decision. In Table 2., the electricity supply in Sweden during 2000 is given. Source of power Energy generation Installed capacity TWh = 0 9 kwh MW Hydro Nuclear Industrial back pressure Combined heat and power Oil fired condensing power Gas turbine Wind power Total Table 2.. Electricity supply in Sweden 2000 The total consumption of electricity is usually grouped into different categories. In Figure 2.2, the consumption during the latest 45 years is given for different groups. 50 Losses 00 Space heating TWh/year 50 Miscellaneous Industry Communication Figure 2.2. Consumption of electricity in Sweden As shown in the figure, the major increase in energy need has earlier been dominated by the industry. When the nuclear power was introduced in the early 970s, the electric space heating increased significantly. Before 965, the electric space heating was included in the group miscellaneous. Communication, i.e. trains, trams and subway, has increased its consumption from.4 TWh/year in 950 to 2.2 TWh/year in 995.

11 5 In proportion to the total electricity consumption, the communication group has decreased from 7.4 % to.6 % during the same period. The losses on the transmission and distribution systems have during the period decreased from more than 0 % of total consumption to approximately 7 %. 2.2 The structure of the electric power system A power system consists of generation sources which via power lines and transformers transmits the electric power to the end consumers. The power system between the generation sources and end consumers is divided into different parts according to Figure 2.3. Transmission network kv (Svenska Kraftnät) Sub-transmission network kv Distribution network primary part 40 0 kv Distribution network secondary part low voltage 230/400 V Figure 2.3. The structure of the electric power system The transmission network, connects the main power sources and transmits a large amount of electric energy. The Swedish transmission system consists of approximately 5250 km power lines, and is connected to other countries on 23 different locations. In Figure 2.4, a general map of the transmission system in Sweden and neighboring countries is given. The primary task for the transmission system is to transmit energy from generation areas to load areas. To achieve a high degree of efficiency and reliability, different aspects must be taken into account. The transmission system should for instance make it possible to optimize the generation within the country and also support trading with electricity with neighboring countries. It is also necessary to withstand different disturbances such as disconnection of transmission lines, lightning storms, outage of power plants as well as unexpected growth in

12 6 power demand without reducing the quality of the electricity services. As shown in Figure 2.4, the transmission system is meshed, i.e. there are a number of closed loops in the transmission system. Figure 2.4. Transmission system in north-western Europe A new state utility, Svenska Kraftnät, was launched on January, 992, to manage the national transmission system and foreign links in operation at date. Svenska Kraftnät owns all 400 kv lines, all transformers between 400 and 220 kv and the major part of the 220 kv lines in Sweden. Note that the Baltic Cable between Sweden and Germany was taken into operation after the day Svenska Kraftnät was launched and is therefore not owned by them. Sub-transmission network, in Sweden also called regional network, has in each load region the same or partly the same purpose as the transmission network. The amount of energy transmitted and the transmission distance are smaller compared with the transmission network which gives that technical-economical constraints implies lower system voltages. Regional networks are usually connected to the transmission network at two locations.

13 7 Distribution network, transmits and distributes the electric power that is taken from the substations in the sub-transmission network and delivers it to the end users. The distribution network is in normal operation a radial network, i.e. there is only one path from the subtransmission sub-station to the end user. The electric power need of different end users varies a lot as well as the voltage level where the end user is connected. Generally, the higher power need the end user has, the higher voltage level is the user connected to. The nominal voltage levels (Root Mean Square (RMS) value for tree-phase line-to-line (LL) voltages) used in distribution of high voltage electric power is normally lower compared with the voltage levels used in transmission. In Figure 2.5, the voltage levels used in Sweden are given. In special industry networks, except for levels given in Figure 2.5, also the voltage 660 V as well as the non-standard voltage 500 V are used. Distribution of low voltage electric power to end users is usually performed in three-phase lines with a zero conductor, which gives the voltage levels 400/230 V (line-to-line (LL)/line-to-neutral (LN) voltage).

15 Chapter 3 Alternating current circuits In this chapter, instantaneous and also complex power in an alternating current (AC) circuit is discussed. Also, the fundamental properties of AC voltage, current and power in a balanced (or symmetrical)three-phase circuit are presented. 3. Single-phase circuit Assume that an AC voltage source with a sinusoidal voltage supplies an impedance load as shown in Figure 3.. i( t) u( t) + - Z = R + jx Figure 3.. A sinusoidal voltage source supplies an impedance load. Let the instantaneous voltage and current be given by where u(t) = U M cos(ωt + θ) i(t) = I M cos(ωt + γ) U M = the peak value of the voltage I M = U M Z = U M = the peak value of the current Z ω = 2πf, and f is the frequency of the voltage source θ = the voltage phase angle γ = the current phase angle φ = θ γ = arctan X R = phase angle between voltage and current (3.) The single-phase instantaneous power consumed by the impedance Z is given by p(t) = u(t) i(t) = U M I M cos(ωt + θ) cos(ωt + γ) = = 2 U MI M [cos(θ γ) + cos(2ωt + θ + γ)] = = UM 2 I M 2 [( + cos(2ωt + 2θ)) cos φ + sin(2ωt + 2θ) sin φ] = (3.2) = P ( + cos(2ωt + 2θ)) + Q sin(2ωt + 2θ) 9

16 0 where P = UM 2 I M 2 cos φ = U I cos φ = active power Q = UM 2 I M 2 sin φ = U I sin φ = reactive power U and I are the RMS-value of the voltage and current, respectively. The RMS-values are defined as T U = u(t) T 2 dt (3.3) 0 T I = i(t) T 2 dt (3.4) With sinusoidal voltage and current, according to equation (3.), the corresponding RMSvalues are given by T U = UM 2 T ( ) cos(2ωt + 2θ) T cos2 (ωt + θ) = U M + = UM (3.5) 0 T T I = IM 2 T cos2 (ωt + γ) = IM (3.6) 2 0 As shown in equation (3.2), the instantaneous power has been decomposed into two components. The first component has a mean value P, and pulsates with the double frequency. The second component also pulsates with double frequency with a amplitude Q, but it has a zero mean value. In Figure 3.2, the instantaneous voltage, current and power are shown. 0 p(t) u(t) i(t) UIcosφ time (t) φ p(t) I II UIcosφ UIsinφ time (t) Figure 3.2. Voltage, current and power versus time.

17 Example 3. A resistor of 20 Ω is fed by an AC voltage source with frequency 50 Hz and voltage 220 V (RMS). Find the mean value power (i.e. the active power) consumed by the resistor. Solution The consumed mean value power over one period can be calculated as P = T T 0 p(t) dt = T T 0 R i 2 (t)dt = T which can be rewritten according to equation (3.3) as T 0 R u2 (t) R 2 dt = R T T 0 u 2 (t)dt P = R U 2 = = 40 W 3.. Complex power The complex method is a powerful tool for calculation of electrical power, and can offer solutions in an elegant manner. The single-phase phasor voltage and current are expressed by where U = phasor voltage U = Ue j arg(u) I = Ie j arg(i) (3.7) U = U M / 2 = the RMS magnitude of voltage I = phasor current The complex power (S) is expressed by I = I M / 2 = the RMS magnitude of current S = Se j arg(s) = P + jq = U I = UIe j(arg(u) arg(i)) (3.8) With the voltage and current phase angles given in equation (3.), we have which implies that S = P + jq = U I = UIe j(θ γ) = UIe jφ = UI(cos φ + j sin φ) (3.9) P = S cos φ = UI cos φ Q = S sin φ = UI sin φ (3.0) where, P is the active power and Q is the reactive power.

18 2 Example 3.2 Calculate the complex power consumed by an inductor with the inductance of 3.85 H which is fed by an AC voltage source with the phasor U = U θ = V. The circuit frequency is 50 Hz. Solution The impedance is given by Z = jωl = j 2 π = j20 Ω Next, the phasor current through the impedance can be calculated as I = U Z = 220 j20 Thus, the complex power is given by i.e. P = 0 W, Q = 40 VAr. S = U I = UIe j(θ γ) = UIe j(φ) π = j0.88 A = 0.88 e j 2 A = 220 (0.88) e j(0+ π 2 ) = 220(j0.88) = j40 VA Example 3.3 Two series connected impedances are fed by an AC voltage source with the phasor U = 0 V as shown in Figure 3.3. U = V Z 2 = 0.+ j0.2 Ω I U2 = U 2 θ2 Z2 = 0.7+ j0.2 Ω Figure 3.3. Network used in Example 3.3. a) Calculate the power consumed by Z 2 as well as the power factor (cosφ) at bus and 2 where φ k is the phase angle between the voltage and the current at bus k. b) Calculate the magnitude U 2 when Z 2 is capacitive : Z 2 = 0.7 j0.5 Ω Solution a) U U = U θ = 0 V and I = = I γ = A Z + Z 2 Thus, φ = θ γ = 26.57, and cos φ = lagging, since the current lags the voltage. Furthermore, U 2 = Z 2 I = U 2 θ 2 =

19 3 Thus, φ 2 = θ 2 γ = = 5.95, and cos φ 2 = 0.965, lagging. The equation above can be written on polar form as i.e. φ 2 = arg(z 2 ) = arctan X 2 R 2 = 5.95 U 2 = Z 2 I θ 2 = arg(z 2 ) + γ γ θ 2 φ 2 R I U U 2 = U R I jx I I Figure 3.4. Solution to Example 3.3 a). The power consumption in Z 2 can be calculated as S 2 = P 2 + jq 2 = Z 2 I 2 = (0.7 + j0.2).8 2 = j0.25 VA or S 2 = P 2 + jq 2 = U 2 I = U 2 I φ 2 = = j0.25 VA U = V Z 2 = 0.+ j0.2 Ω I U2 = U 2 θ2 Z2 = 0.7 j0.5 Ω Figure 3.5. Solution to Example 3.3 b). b) U 2 = Z 2 Z + Z U = j j0.3 = = =.007 V Conclusions from this example are that a capacitance increases the voltage - so called phase compensation,

20 4 active power can be transmitted towards higher voltage, the power factor cos φ may be different in different ends of a line, the line impedances are load impedances. 3.2 Balanced three-phase circuit In a balanced (or symmetrical) three-phase circuit, a three-phase voltage source consists of three AC voltage sources (one for each phase) which are equal in amplitude (or magnitude) and displaced in phase by 20. Furthermore, each phase is equally loaded. Let the instantaneous phase (also termed as line-to-neutral (LN)) voltages be given by u a (t) = U M cos(ωt + θ) u b (t) = U M cos(ωt + θ 2π 3 ) (3.) u c (t) = U M cos(ωt + θ + 2π 3 ) Variations of the three voltages versus time are shown in Figure 3.6. ua(t) ub(t) uc(t) uab(t) Figure 3.6. u a (t), u b (t), u c (t) and u ab (t) versus time with f = 50 Hz, U M = and θ = 0. For analysis of a balanced three-phase system, it is very common to use the voltage between two phases. This voltage is termed as line-to-line (LL) voltage. The line-to-line voltage u ab

21 5 is given by u ab (t) = u a (t) u b (t) = U M cos(ωt + θ) U M cos(ωt + θ 2π 3 ) = (3.2) = 3 U M cos(ωt + θ + π 6 ) As shown in equation (3.2), in a balanced three-phase circuit the line-to-line voltage leads the line-to-neutral voltage by 30, and is 3 times larger in amplitude (or magnitude, see equation (3.5)). For instance, at a three-phase power outlet the magnitude of a phase is 230 V, but the magnitude of a line-to-line voltage is = 400 V, i.e. U LL = 3 U LN. The line-to-line voltage u ab is shown at the bottom of Figure 3.6. Next, assume that the voltages given in equation (3.) supply a balanced (or symmetrical) three-phase load whose phase currents are i a (t) = I M cos(ωt + γ) i b (t) = I M cos(ωt + γ 2π 3 ) (3.3) i c (t) = I M cos(ωt + γ + 2π 3 ) Then, the total instantaneous power is given by p 3 (t) = p a (t) + p b (t) + p c (t) = u a (t)i a (t) + u b (t)i b (t) + u c (t)i c (t) = = UM 2 I M 2 [( + cos 2(ωt + θ)) cos φ + sin 2(ωt + θ) sin φ] + + UM 2 I M 2 [( + cos 2(ωt + θ 2π 3 )) cos φ + sin 2(ωt + θ 2π 3 ) sin φ] + + UM I M [( + cos 2(ωt + θ + 2π )) cos φ + sin 2(ωt + θ + 2π ) sin φ] = (3.4) 3 = 3 UM I M [cos φ + (cos 2(ωt + θ) + cos 2[ωt + θ 2π3 ] + cos 2[ωt + θ + 2π3 ) ] } {{ } =0 + (sin 2(ωt + θ) + sin 2[ωt + θ 2π3 ] + sin 2[ωt + θ + 2π3 )] ] = } {{ } =0 = 3 UM 2 I M 2 cos φ = 3 U LN I cos φ Note that the total instantaneous power is equal to three times the active power of a single phase, and it is constant. This is one of the main reasons why three-phase systems have been used.

22 Complex power The corresponding phasor voltages are defined as: U a = U LN θ U b = U LN (θ 20 ) (3.5) U c = U LN (θ + 20 ) Figure 3.7 shows the phasor diagram of the three balanced line-to-neutral voltages, and also the phasor diagram of the line-to-line voltages. U c U ca +20 o U bc U a -20 o U ab U b Figure 3.7. Phasor diagram of the line-to-neutral and line-to-line voltages. The phasor of the line-to-line voltages can be determined as follows U ab =U a U b = 3 U LN (θ + 30 ) = 3 U a e j30 U bc =U b U c = 3 U LN (θ 90 ) = 3 U b e j30 U ca =U c U a = 3 U LN (θ + 50 ) = (3.6) 3 U c e j30 Obviously, the line-to-line voltages are also balanced. Equation (3.6) also shows that the line-to-line phasor voltage leads the line-to-neutral phasor voltage by 30, and it is 3 times the line-to-neutral phasor voltage. Next, let the balanced phasor currents be defined as I a = I γ I b = I (γ 20 ) (3.7) I c = I (γ + 20 )

23 7 Then, the total three-phase power (S 3Φ ) is given by : S 3Φ = S a + S b + S c = U a I a + U b I b + U c I c = = 3 U LN I cos φ + j3 U LN I sin φ = = 3 U LN I e jφ (3.8) Obviously, for a balanced three-phase system S a = S b = S c and S 3Φ = 3 S Φ, where S Φ is the complex power of a single phase. Example 3.4 The student Elektra lives in a house situated 2 km from a transformer having a completely symmetrical three-phase voltage (U a = 220V 0, U b = 220V 20, U c = 220V 20 ). The house is connected to this transformer via a three-phase cable (EKKJ, 3 6 mm mm 2 ). A cold day, Elektra switches on two electrical radiators to each phase, each radiator is rated 000 W (at 220 V with cosφ = lagging (inductive)). Assume that the cable can be modeled as four impedances connected in parallel (z L =.5 + j0.08 Ω/phase,km, z L0 =.5 + j0.05 Ω/km) and that the radiators also can be considered as impedances. Calculate the total thermal power given by the radiators. U a U b U c I a I b I c Z L Z L Z L U a U b U c Z a Z b Z c U 0 I 0 Z L0 U 0 Figure 3.8. Single line diagram for example Solution U a = V, U b = V, U c = V Z L = 2(.5 + j0.08) = j0.6 Ω Z L0 = 2(.5 + j0.05) = j0.03 Ω P a = P b = P c = 2000 W (at 220 V, cos φ = 0.995) sin φ = cos 2 φ = Q a = Q b = Q c = S sin φ = cos P sin φ = VAr φ Z a = Z b = Z c = U = U 2 /S = U 2 /(P I a jq a ) = j2.40 Ω = U U I U I a = U a U 0 Z L +Z a I b = U b U 0 Z L +Z b I c = U c U 0 Z L +Z c I a + I b + I c = U 0 U 0 Z L0 [ U 0 = U 0 0 Z L0 Z L0 + Z L +Z a + Z L +Z b + Z L +Z c ] = U a Z L +Z a + U b Z L +Z b + U c Z L +Z c

24 8 U 0 = 0.0 I a = A, I b = A, I c = A The voltage at the radiators can be calculated as : U a = U 0 + I a Z a = U b = U c = V 20.5 V 0.5 V Finally, the power to the radiators can be calculated as S za = Z a I 2 a = j67 VA S zb = Z b I 2 b = j67 VA S zc = Z a I 2 c = j67 VA Thus, the total consumed power is S za + S zb + S zc = j502 VA, i.e. the thermal power = 4998 W Note that since we are dealing with a balanced three-phase system, S za = S zb = S zc. The total transmission losses are Z L (I 2 a + I 2 b + I2 c ) + Z L0 I a + I b + I c 2 ) = Z L (I 2 a + I 2 b + I2 c ) = j33 VA i.e. the active losses are 480 W, which means that the efficiency is 9.2 %. In a balanced three-phase system, I a + I b + I c = 0. Thus, no current flows in the neutral conductor (i.e. I 0 = 0), and the voltage at the neutral point is zero, i.e. U 0 = 0. Therefore, for analyzing a balanced three-phase system, it is more common to analyze only a single phase (or more precisely only the positive-sequence network of the system, see Chapter 3). Then, the total three-phase power can be determined as three times the power of the single phase. Example 3.5 Use the data in Example 3.4, but in this example the student Elektra connects one 000 W radiator (at 220 V with cosφ = lagging) to phase a, three radiators to phase b and two to phase c. Calculate the total thermal power given by the radiators, as well as the system losses. Solution U a = V, U b = V, U c = V Z L = 2(.5 + j0.08) = j0.6 Ω Z L0 = 2(.5 + j0.05) = j0.03 Ω P a = 000 W (at 220 V, cos φ = 0.995) sin φ = cos 2 φ = Q a = S sin φ = cos P sin φ = 00.4 VAr φ Z a = U 2 /S a = U 2 /(P a jq a ) = j4.8 Ω

25 9 Z b = Z a /3 = j.60 Ω Z c = Z a /2 = j2.40 Ω [ ] U 0 + Z L0 Z L +Z a + + Z L +Z b Z L +Z c U 0 = V = U a Z L +Z a + U b Z L +Z b + U c Z L +Z c I a = A, I b = A, I c = A The voltages at the radiators can be calculated as : U a = U 0 + I a Z a = U b = U 0 + I b Z b = U c = U 0 + I c Z c = V V V Note that these voltages are not local phase voltages since they are calculated as U a U 0 etc. The power to the radiators can be calculated as : S za = Z a I 2 a = j0 VA S zb = Z b I 2 b = j20 VA S zc = Z a I 2 c = j66 VA The total amount of power consumed is S za + S zb + S zc = j477 VA, i.e. the thermal power is 4754 W The total transmission losses are Z L (I 2 a + I 2 b + I2 c ) + Z L0 I a + I b + I c 2 ) = j36 VA, i.e W which gives an efficiency of 89.3 %. As shown in this example, an unsymmetrical impedance load will result in unsymmetrical phase currents, i.e. we are dealing with an unbalanced three-phase system. As a consequence, a voltage can be detected at the neutral point (i.e. U 0 0) which gives rise to a current in the neutral conductor, i.e. I 0 0. The total thermal power obtained was reduced by approximately 5 % and the line losses increased partly due to the losses in the neutral conductor. The efficiency of the transmission decreased. It can also be noted that the power per radiator decreased with the number of radiators connected to the same phase. This owing to the fact that the voltage at the neutral point will be closest to the voltage in the phase with the lowest impedance, i.e. the phase with the largest number of radiators connected.

27 Chapter 4 Models of power system components Electric energy is transmitted from power plants to consumers via overhead lines, cables and transformers. In the following, these components will be discussed and mathematical models to be used in the analysis of symmetrical three-phase systems will be derived. In chapter and 2, analysis of power systems under unsymmetrical conditions will be discussed. 4. Electrical characteristic of an overhead line Overhead transmission lines need large surface area and are mostly suitable to be used in rural areas and in areas with low population density. In areas with high population density and urban areas cables are a better alternative. For a certain amount of power transmitted, a cable transmission system is about ten times as expensive as an overhead transmission system. Power lines have a resistance (r) owing to the resistivity of the conductor and a shunt conductance (g) because of leakage currents in the insulation. The lines also have an inductance (l) owing to the magnetic flux surrounding the line as well as a shunt capacitance (c) because of the electric field between the lines and between the lines and ground. These quantities are given per unit length and are continuously distributed along the whole length of the line. Resistance and inductance are in series while the conductance and capacitance are shunt quantities. l l l l r r r r c g c g c g c g Figure 4.. A line with distributed quantities Assuming symmetrical three-phase, a line can be modeled as shown in Figure 4.. The quantities r, g, l, and c determine the characteristics of a line. Power lines can be modeled by simple equivalent circuits which, together with models of other system components, can be formed to a model of a complete system or parts of it. This is important since such models are used in power system analysis where active and reactive power flows in the network, voltage levels, losses, power system stability and other properties at disturbances as e.g. short circuits, are of interest. For a more detailed derivation of the expressions of inductance and capacitance given below, more fundamental literature in electro-magnetic theory has to be studied. 2

28 Resistance The resistance of a conductor with the cross-section area A mm 2 and the resistivity ρ Ωmm 2 /km is r = ρ A Ω/km (4.) The conductor is made of copper with the resistivity at 20 C of 7.2 Ωmm 2 /km, or aluminum with the resistivity at 20 C of 27.0 Ωmm 2 /km. The choice between copper or aluminum is related to the price difference between the materials. The effective alternating current resistance at normal system frequency (50 60 Hz) for lines with a small cross-section area is close to the value for the direct current resistance. For larger cross-section areas, the current density will not be equal over the whole cross-section. The current density will be higher at the peripheral parts of the conductor. That phenomena is called current displacement or skin effect and depends on the internal magnetic flux of the conductor. The current paths that are located in the center of the conductor will be surrounded by the whole internal magnetic flux and will consequently have an internal self inductance. Current paths that are more peripheral will be surrounded by a smaller magnetic flux and thereby have a smaller internal inductance. The resistance of a line is given by the manufacturer where the influence of the skin effect is taken. Normal values of the resistance of lines are in the range Ω/km. The resistance plays, compared with the reactance, often a minor role when comparing the transmission capability and voltage drop between different lines. For low voltage lines and when calculating the losses, the resistance is of significant importance Shunt conductance The shunt conductance of an overhead line represents the losses owing to leakage currents at the insulators. There are no reliable data over the shunt conductances of lines and these are very much dependent on humidity, salt content and pollution in the surrounding air. For cables, the shunt conductance represents the dielectric losses in the insulation material and data can be obtained from the manufacturer. The dielectric losses are e.g. for a 2 kv cross-linked polyethylene (XLPE) cable with a cross-section area of 240 mm 2 /phase 7 W/km,phase and for a 70 kv XLPE cable with the same area 305 W/km,phase. The shunt conductance will be neglected in all calculations throughout this compendium Inductance The inductance is in most cases the most important parameter of a line. It has a large influence on the line transmission capability, voltage drop and indirectly the line losses. The inductance of a line can be calculated by the following formula :

29 23 where ( l = ln a d/2 + ) 4n H/km,phase (4.2) a = 3 a 2 a 3 a 23 m, = geometrical mean distance according to Figure 4.2. d = diameter of the conductor, m n = number of conductors per phase a 2 a 23 a 3 H 2 H 3 H Ground level A 3 A A 2 Figure 4.2. The geometrical quantities of a line in calculations of inductance and capacitance The calculation of the inductance according to equation (4.2), is made under some assumptions, viz. the conductor material must be non-magnetic as copper and aluminum together with the assumption that the line is transposed. The majority of the long transmission lines are transposed, see Figure 4.3. Locations of transposing Transposing cycle Figure 4.3. Transposing of three-phase overhead line This implies that each one of the conductors, under a transposing cycle, has had all three possible locations in the transmission line. Each location is held under equal distance which implies that all conductors in average have the same distance to ground and to the other

30 24 conductors. This gives that the mutual inductance between the three phases are equalized so that the inductance per phase is equal among the three phases. In many cases, the line is constructed as a multiple conductor, i.e. more than one conductor is used for each phase, see Figure 4.4. Multiple conductors implies both lower reactance of D 2 d Figure 4.4. Cross-section of a multiple conductor with three conductors per phase the line and reduced corona effect (glow discharge). The radius d/2 in equation (4.2) must in these cases be replaced with the equivalent radius where n = number of conductors per phase D/2 = radius in the circle formed by the conductors (d/2) eq = n n(d/2) n (d/2) (4.3) By using the inductance, the reactance of a line can be calculated as x = ω l = 2πf l Ω/km,phase (4.4) and is only dependent on the geometrical design of the line if the frequency is kept constant. The relationship between the geometrical mean distance a and the conductor diameter d in equation (4.2) varies within quite small limits for different lines. This due to the large distance between the phases and the larger conductor diameter for lines designed for higher system voltages. The term a has, compared with ln( ), usually a minor influence on the 4n d/2 line inductance. At normal system frequency, the reactance of an overhead line can vary between 0.3 and 0.5 Ω/km,phase with a typical value of 0.4 Ω/km,phase. For cables, the reactance vary between 0.08 and 0.7 Ω/km,phase where the higher value is valid for cables with a small cross-section area. The reactance for cables is considerably lower than the reactance of overhead lines. The difference is caused by the difference in distance between the conductors. The conductors are more close to one another in cables which gives a lower reactance. See equation (4.2) which gives the inductance of overhead lines. Example 4. Determine the reactance of a 30 kv overhead line where the conductors are located in a plane and the distance between two closely located conductors is 4 m. The conductor diameter is 20 mm. Repeat the calculations for a line with two conductors per phase, located 30 cm from one another.

31 25 Solution a 2 = a 23 = 4, a 3 = 8 d/2 = 0.0 m a = = 5.04 x = 2π ( ln ) = (ln(504) ) = 0.4 Ω/km,phase Multiple conductor (duplex) (d/2) eq = 2 2(0.3/2)0.0 = x = ( ln ) = 0.29 Ω/km,phase The reactance is in this case reduced by 28 % Shunt capacitance For a three-phase transposed overhead line, the capacitance to ground per phase can be calculated as where c = 8 ln 0 6 ( 2H A a (d/2) eq ) F/km,phase (4.5) H = 3 H H 2 H 3 = geometrical mean height for the conductors according to Figure 4.2. A = 3 A A 2 A 3 = geometrical mean distance between the conductors and their image conductors according to Figure 4.2. As indicated in equation (4.5), the ground has some influence on the capacitance of the line. The capacitance is determined by the electrical field which is dependent on the characteristics of the ground. The ground will form an equipotential surface which has an influence on the electric field. The degree of influence the ground has on the capacitance is determined by the factor 2H/A in equation (4.5). This factor has usually a value near. Assume that a line mounted on relatively high poles ( A 2H) is considered and that the term can be neglected in equation (4.2). By multiplying the expressions for inductance 4n and capacitance, the following is obtained ) ( ) l c = 2 0 (ln 4 a km ( ) = = (4.6) (d/2) eq a 8 ln (3 0 5 ) 2 s v 2 (d/2) eq where v = speed of light in vacuum in km/s. Equation (4.6) can be interpreted as the inductance and capacitance are the inverse of one another for a line. Equation (4.6) is a good approximation for an overhead line. The shunt susceptance of a line is b c = 2πf c S/km,phase (4.7)

32 26 A typical value of the shunt susceptance of a line is S/km,phase. Cables have considerable higher values between S/km,phase. Example 4.2 Assume that a line has a shunt susceptance of S/km,phase. Use equation (4.6) to estimate the reactance of the line. Solution x = ωl ω cv = ω2 2 bv = (00π) 2 = Ω/km (3 0 5 ) 2 which is near the standard value of 0.4 Ω/km for the reactance of an overhead line. 4.2 Model of a line Both overhead lines and cables have their electrical quantities r, x, g and b distributed along the whole length. Figure 4. shows an approximation of the distribution of the quantities. Generally, the accuracy of the calculation result will increase with the number of distributed quantities. At a first glance, it seems possible to form a line model where the total resistance/inductance is calculated as the product between the resistance/inductance per length unit and the length of the line. This approximation is though only valid for short lines and lines of medium length. For long lines, the distribution of the quantities r, l, c and g must be taken into account. Such analysis can be carried out with help of differential calculus. There are no absolute limits between short, medium and long lines. Usually, lines shorter than 00 km are considered as short, between 00 km and 300 km as medium long and lines longer than 300 km are classified as long. For cables, having considerable higher values of the shunt capacitance, the distance 00 km should be considered as medium long. In the following, models for short and medium long lines are given Short lines In short line models, the shunt parameters are neglected, i.e. conductance and susceptance. This because the current flowing through these components is less than one percent of the rated current of the line. The short line model is given in Figure 4.5. This single-phase model of a three-phase system is valid under the assumption that the system is operating under symmetrical conditions. The impedance of the line between bus k and bus j can be calculated as where L is the length of the line in km. Z kj = R kj + jx kj = (r kj + jx kj ) L Ω/phase (4.8)

33 27 U k Z = R + jx I kj kj kj k U j Figure 4.5. Short line model of a line Medium long lines For lines having a length between 00 and 300 km, the shunt capacitance cannot be neglected. The model shown in Figure 4.5 has to be extended with the shunt susceptance, which results in a model called the π-equivalent shown in Figure 4.6. The impedance is calculated U k Z = R + jx I kj kj kj k I U j U k I kj kj kj k I Z = R + jx U j I sh Ysh kj Ysh kj 2 2 or I sh ysh kj ysh kj Figure 4.6. Medium long model of a line according to equation (4.8) and the admittance to ground per phase is obtained by Y sh kj 2 = j b c L 2 = y sh kj = jb sh kj S (4.9) i.e. the total shunt capacitance of the line is divided into two equal parts, one at each end of the line. The π-equivalent is a very common and useful model in power system analysis. 4.3 Single-phase transformer The principle diagram of a two winding transformer is shown in Figure 4.7. The fundamental principles of a transformer are given in the figure. In a real transformer, the demand of a strong magnetic coupling between the primary and secondary sides must be taken into account in the design. Assume that the magnetic flux can be divided into three components. There is a core flux Φ m passing through both the primary and the secondary windings. There are also leakage fluxes, Φ l passing only the primary winding and Φ l2 which passes only the secondary winding. The resistance of the primary winding is r and for the secondary winding r 2. According to the law of induction, the following relationships can be given for the voltages at the transformer

34 28 Iron core Φ m u i i 2 u 2 Φ Φ l l 2 Primary Winding N turns Secondary Winding N 2 turns Figure 4.7. Principle design of a two winding transformer terminals : d(φ l + Φ m ) u = r i + N dt u 2 = r 2 i d(φ l2 + Φ m ) 2 + N 2 dt (4.0) Assuming linear conditions, the following is valid N Φ l = L l i (4.) N 2 Φ l2 = L l2 i 2 where L l = inductance of the primary winding L l2 = inductance of the secondary winding Equation (4.0) can be rewritten as di u = r i + L l dt + N dφ m dt u 2 = r 2 i 2 + L l2 di 2 dt + N 2 dφ m dt (4.2) With the reluctance R of the iron core and the definitions of the directions of the currents according to Figure 4.7, the magnetomotive forces N i and N 2 i 2 can be added as N i + N 2 i 2 = RΦ m (4.3)

35 29 Assume that i 2 = 0, i.e. the secondary side of the transformer is not connected. The current now flowing in the primary winding is called the magnetizing current and the magnitude can be calculated using equation (4.3) as If equation (4.4) is inserted into equation (4.3), the result is i m = RΦ m N (4.4) i = i m N 2 N i 2 = i m + N 2 N i 2 (4.5) where i 2 = i 2 (4.6) Assuming linear conditions, the induced voltage drop N dφ m dt expressed by using an inductor as in equation (4.2) can be N dφ m dt = L m di m dt (4.7) i.e. L m = N 2 /R. By using equations (4.2), (4.5) and (4.7), the equivalent diagram of a single-phase transformer can be drawn, see Figure 4.8. i r N2 i ideal L 2 l N L l 2 r 2 i 2 i m u L u m e e 2 2 N N2 Figure 4.8. Equivalent diagram of a single-phase transformer In Figure 4.8, one part of the ideal transformer is shown, which is a lossless transformer without leakage fluxes and magnetizing currents. The equivalent diagram in Figure 4.8 has the advantage that the different parts represents different parts of the real transformer. For example, the inductance L m represents the assumed linear relationship between the core flux Φ m and the magnetomotive force of the iron core. Also the resistive copper losses in the transformer are represented by r and r 2. In power system analysis, where the transformer is modeled, a simplified model is often used where the magnetizing current is neglected.

36 Three-phase transformer There are three fundamental ways of connecting single-phase transformers into one threephase transformer. The three combinations are Y-Y-connected, - -connected and Y- connected (or -Y-connected). In Figure 4.9, the different combinations are shown. a A a A a A b B b B b B n N n c C c C c C Y-Y-connected - -connected Y- -connected Figure 4.9. Standard connections for three-phase transformers When the neutral (i.e. n or N) is grounded, the Y-connected part will be designated by Y0. The different consequences that these different connections imply, will be discussed in Chapter 2.

37 Chapter 5 Important theorems in power system analysis In many cases, the use of theorems can simplify the analysis of electrical circuits and systems. In the following sections, some important theorems will be discussed and proofs will be given. 5. Bus analysis, admittance matrices Consider an electric network which consists of four buses as shown in Figure 5.. Each bus is connected to the other buses via an admittance y kj where the subscript indicates which buses the admittance is connected to. Assume that there are no mutual inductances between I o y 2 2 I 2 o y 3 y 23 y 4 3 o y 34 y 24 I 3 o 4 I 4 Figure 5.. Four bus network the admittances and that the buses voltages are U, U 2, U 3 and U 4. The currents I, I 2, I 3 and I 4 are assumed to be injected into the buses from external current sources. Application of Kirchhoff s current law at bus gives or I = y 2 (U U 2 ) + y 3 (U U 3 ) + y 4 (U U 4 ) (5.) I = (y 2 + y 3 + y 4 )U y 2 U 2 y 3 U 3 y 4 U 4 = (5.2) = Y U + Y 2 U 2 + Y 3 U 3 + Y 4 U 4 where Y = y 2 + y 3 + y 4 and Y 2 = y 2, Y 3 = y 3, Y 4 = y 4 (5.3) Corresponding equations can be formed for the other buses. These equations can be put 3

38 32 together to a matrix equation as : I I = I 2 I 3 = I 4 Y Y 2 Y 3 Y 4 Y 2 Y 22 Y 23 Y 24 Y 3 Y 32 Y 33 Y 34 Y 4 Y 42 Y 43 Y 44 U U 2 U 3 U 4 = YU (5.4) This matrix is termed as the bus admittance matrix or Y-bus matrix.whicha has the following properties : It can be uniquely determined from a given admittance network. The diagonal element Y kk = the sum of all admittances connected to bus k. Non-diagonal element Y kj = y kj = Z kj and bus j. where y kj is the admittance between bus k This gives that the matrix is symmetric, i.e. Y kj = Y jk (one exception is when the network includes phase shifting transformers). It is singular since I + I 2 + I 3 + I 4 = 0 If the potential in one bus is assumed to be zero, the corresponding row and column in the admittance matrix can be removed which results in a non-singular matrix. Bus analysis using the Y-bus matrix is the method most often used when studying larger, meshed networks in a systematic manner. Example 5. Re-do Example 3.5 by using the Y-bus matrix of the network in order to calculate the power given by the radiators. I Z L Z a U I 2 Z L Z b U 2 U 3 I 3 Z L Z c U 0 I 0 Z I 4 L0 U 4 Figure 5.2. Network diagram used in example Solution According to the task and to the calculations performed in Example 3.5, the following is valid; Z L = j0.6 Ω, Z L0 = j0.03 Ω, Z a = j4.8 Ω, Z b = j.60 Ω, Z c =

39 j2.40 Ω. Start with forming the Y-bus matrix. I 0 and U 0 are neglected since the system otherwise will be singular. I Z I = I 2 L +Z a 0 0 Z L +Z a U I 3 = 0 0 Z L +Z b Z L +Z b 0 0 Z L +Z c U 2 Z L +Z c U 3 = YU (5.5) I 4 Z L +Z a Z L +Z b Z L +Z c Y 44 U 4 where Y 44 = Z L + Z a + Z L + Z b + + (5.6) Z L + Z c Z L0 In the matrix equation above, U, U 2, U 3 and I 4 (I 4 =0) as well as all impedances, i.e. the Y-bus matrix, are known. If the given Y-bus matrix is inverted, the corresponding Z-bus matrix is obtained : U = U U 2 U 3 U 4 = ZI = Y I = Z Z 2 Z 3 Z 4 Z 2 Z 22 Z 23 Z 24 Z 3 Z 32 Z 33 Z 34 Z 4 Z 42 Z 43 Z 44 I I 2 I 3 I 4 (5.7) Since the elements in the Y-bus matrix are known, all the elements in the Z-bus matrix can be calculated. Since I 4 =0 the voltages U, U 2 and U 3 can be expressed as a function of the currents I, I 2 and I 3 by using only a part of the Z-bus matrix : U U 2 U 3 = Z Z 2 Z 3 Z 2 Z 22 Z 23 Z 3 Z 32 Z 33 I I 2 I 3 (5.8) Since the voltages U, U 2 and U 3 are known, the currents I, I 2 and I 3 can be calculated as : I Z Z 2 Z 3 U I 2 I 3 = Z 2 Z 22 Z 23 Z 3 Z 32 Z 33 U 2 U 3 = (5.9) = 0 3 = 9.0 j j j j j j j j j A By using these currents, the power given by the radiators can be calculated as : = S za = Z a I 2 = j0 VA S zb = Z b I 2 2 = j20 VA S zc = Z c I 2 3 = j66 VA = j477 VA (5.0) i.e. the thermal power obtained is 4754 W.

40 Millman s theorem Millman s theorem (the parallel generator-theorem) gives that if a number of admittances Y, Y 2, Y 3... Y n are connected to a common bus k, and the voltages to a reference bus U 0, U 20, U U n0 are known, the voltage between bus k and the reference bus, U k0 can be calculated as n Y i U i0 U k0 = i= (5.) n Y i Assume a Y-connection of admittances as shown in Figure 5.3. The Y-bus matrix for this k i= Y I I 2 2 Y n Y 2 I n U k 0 U 20 U 0 U n0 0 n Figure 5.3. Y-connected admittances network can be formed as I Y Y I 2 0 Y Y 2. = I n Y n Y n I k Y Y 2...

U n0 U k0 (5.2) (5.3) Since no current is injected at bus k (I k = 0), the last equation can be written as I k = 0 = U 0 Y U 20 Y n Y i U k0 (5.4) i=

41 35 This equation can be written as U k0 = U 0Y + U 20 Y U n0 Y n (5.5) n Y i and by that, the proof of the Millman s theorem is completed. i= Example 5.2 Find the solution to Example 3.5 by using Millman s theorem, which will be the most efficient method to solve the problem so far. I Z L Z a U I 2 Z L Z b U 2 U 3 I 3 Z L Z c U 0 I 0 Z I 4 L0 U 4 Figure 5.4. Diagram of the network used in the example. Solution According to the task and to the calculations performed in Example 3.5, the following is valid; Z L = j0.6 Ω, Z L0 = j0.03 Ω, Z a = j4.8 Ω, Z b = j.60 Ω, Z c = j2.40 Ω. By using Millman s theorem, the voltage at bus 4 can be calculated as U 40 = n Y i U i0 i= = n Y i i= = V U 0 + U Z L0 Z a+z + U 2 + U L Z b +Z 3 L Z c+z L + Z L0 Z a+z + + = L Z b +Z L Z c+z L (5.6) The currents through the impedances can be calculated as I = U U 4 Z a + Z L = A I 2 = U 2 U 4 Z b + Z L = A (5.7) I 3 = U 3 U 4 Z c + Z L = A

42 36 By using these currents, the power from the radiators can be calculated in the same way as earlier : S za = Z a I 2 = j0 VA S zb = Z b I 2 2 = j20 VA S zc = Z c I 2 3 = j66 VA = j477 VA (5.8) i.e. the thermal power is 4754 W. 5.3 Superposition theorem According to section 5., each admittance network can be described by a Y-bus matrix, i.e. where I = YU (5.9) I = vector with currents injected into the buses U = vector with the bus voltages The superposition theorem can be applied to variables with a linear dependence, as shown in equation (5.9). This implies that the solution is obtained piecewise, e.g. for one generator at the time. The total solution is obtained by adding all the part solutions found : I = I I 2. I n = Y U U 2. U n = Y U Y 0 U Y 0 0. U n (5.20) It can be noted that the superposition theorem cannot be applied to calculations of the power flow since they cannot be considered as linear properties since they are the product between voltage and current. Example 5.3 Use the conditions given in Example 5. and assume that a fault at the feeding transformer gives a short circuit of phase 2. Phase and 3 are operating as usual. Calculate the thermal power obtained in the house of Elektra. Solution According to equation (5.9) in Example 5., the phase currents can be expressed as a function of the feeding voltages as I I 2 I 3 = Z Z 2 Z 3 Z 2 Z 22 Z 23 Z 3 Z 32 Z 33 U U 2 U 3 (5.2)

A short circuit in phase 2 is equivalent with connecting an extra voltage source in reverse direction in series with the already existing voltage source. The phase currents in the changed system can be calculated as : I I 2 I 3 = = = Z Z 2 Z 3 Z 2 Z 22 Z 23 Z 3 Z 32 Z U U 2 U Z Z 2 Z 3 Z 2 Z 22 Z 23 Z 3 Z 32 Z 33 Z Z 2 Z 3 Z 2 Z 22 Z 23 Z 3 Z 32 Z 33 0 U 2 0 = = 0 A (5.22) S za = Z a I 2 = j9 VA S zb = Z b I 2 2 = j0.830 VA S zc = Z c I 2 3 = j5 VA = j243 VA (5.23) i.e. the thermal power is 242 W As shown in this example, the superposition theorem can, for instance, be used when studying changes in the system. But it should once again be pointed out that this is valid under the assumption that the loads (the radiators in this example) can be modeled as impedances. 5.4 Reciprocity theorem Assume that a voltage source is connected to a terminal a in a linear reciprocal network and is giving rise to a current at terminal b. According to the reciprocity theorem, the voltage source will cause the same current at a if it is connected to b. The Y-bus matrix (and by that also the Z-bus matrix) are symmetrical matrices for a reciprocal electric network.

44 38 Assume that an electric network with n buses can be described by a symmetric Y-bus matrix, i.e. I I 2. I n Y Y 2... Y n = I = YU = Y 2 Y Y 2n Y n Y n2... Y nn U U 2. U n (5.24) Assume that all voltages are = 0 except U a. The current at b can now be calculated as I b = Y ba U a (5.25) Assume instead that all voltages are = 0 except U b. This means that the current at a is I a = Y ab U b (5.26) If U a = U b, the currents I a and I b will be equal since the Y-bus matrix is symmetric, i.e. Y ab = Y ba. By that, the proof of the reciprocity theorem is completed. 5.5 Thévenin-Helmholtz s theorem This theorem is often called the Thévenin s theorem (after Léon Charles Thévenin, telegraph engineer and teacher, who published the theorem in 883). But 30 years earlier, Hermann von Helmholtz published the same theorem in 853, including a simple proof. The theorem can be described as Thévenin-Helmholtz s theorem states that from any output terminal in a linear electric network, no matter how complex, the entire linear electric network seen from the output terminal can be modelled as an ideal voltage source U T h (i.e. the voltage will be constant (or unchanged) regardless of how the voltage source is loaded) in series with an impedance Z T h. According to this theorem, when the output terminal is not loaded, its voltage is U T h, and the impedance Z T h is the impedance seen from the output terminal when all voltage sources in the network are short circuited and all current sources are disconnected.

45 39 Proof : Assume that the voltage at an output terminal is U T h. Loading the output terminal with an impedance Z k, a current I will flow through the impedance. This connection is similar to have a network with a voltage source U T h connecting to the output terminal in series with the impedance Z k, together with having a network with the voltage source U T h connecting to the output terminal and the other voltage sources in the network shortened. By using the superposition theorem, the current I can be calculated as the sum of I and I 2. The current I = 0 since the voltage is equal on both sides of the impedance Z k. The current I 2 can be calculated as I 2 = ( U T h )/(Z k + Z T h ) since the network impedance seen from the output terminal is Z T h. The conclusion is that Linear electric network = Linear electric network + Voltage sources shortened I Output terminal I I 2 Z k Z k Z k ~ U Th ~ UTh I = I + I 2 = which is the same as stated by Thévenin-Helmholtz s theorem, viz. U T h Z k + Z T h (5.27) Linear electric network U Th = U Th ~ Z Th Output terminal

47 Chapter 6 Analysis of balanced three-phase systems Consider the simple balanced three-phase system shown in Figure 6., where a symmetric three-phase Y0-connected generator supplies a symmetric Y0-connected impedance load. The neutral of the generator (i.e. point N) is grounded via the impedance Z NG. However, the neutral of the load (i.e. point n) is directly grounded. Since we are dealing with a balanced (or symmetrical) system, I N = I a + I b + I c = I n = 0, i.e. U N = U n = 0 and Z NG has no impact on the system. Note that also in case of connecting point n directly to point N via the impedance Z NG, the neutrals n and N have the same potential, i.e. U N = U n, since in a balanced system I a + I b + I c = 0. U a ~ Z G I a Z LD I N N U b ~ Z G I b Z LD n I n Z NG U c ~ Z G I c Z LD Figure 6.. A simple three-phase system. Therefore, the analysis of a balanced three-phase system can be carried out by studying only one single phase where the components can be connected together by a common neutral conductor as shown in Figure 6. a). Z G I a Z G I Z LD U ~ U ~ a Z LD a) b) Figure 6.2. Single-phase equivalent of a symmetric three-phase system.

For analysis of balanced three-phase systems, it is common to use the line-to line voltage magnitudes, i.e. the voltage U a in Figure 6. a) is replaced by U = U e jθ (as shown in 4

48 42 Figure 6. b)) where, U = U LL, however the phase angle of this voltage is the phase angle of the phase voltage. Furthermore, the other components in Figure 6. b) are per phase components. Based on Figure 6. b), we have then Single-phase equivalent of three-phase transformers U = 3 I (Z G + Z L ) S 3Φ = 3 U I = 3 U I e jφ (6.2) Figure 6.3 shows the single-phase equivalent of a Y-Y-connected three-phase transformer. In the figure, U an and U AN are the line-to-neutral phasor voltages of the primary and secondary sides, respectively. However, U ab and U AB are the line-to-line phasor voltages of the primary and secondary sides, respectively. As shown in Figure 6.3 b), the ratio of line-to-neutral voltages is the same as the ratio of line-to-line voltages. a I a I A A Ia N : N 2 I A U ab U N an n N 2 N U AN U AB U an U AN b c C B Uan N U N = ; = U N U N AN ab 2 AB 2 a) b) Figure 6.3.

For a - -connected transformer the ratio of line-to-neutral voltages is also the same as the ratio of line-to-line voltages. Furthermore, for Y-Y-connected and - -connected transformers U an is in phase with U AN (or U ab is in phase with U AB ). a I a N / 3 N / 3 2 I A A Ia N N2 : 3 3 I A U an N N 2 U AN U an U AN U ab b c n N C U AB B U an N / 3 U N = ; = U N / 3 U N AB ab 2 AB 2 a) b) Figure 6.4. Single-phase equivalent of a three-phase - -connected transformer. It should be noted that windings have no neutral, and for analysis of -connected transformers it is more convenient to replace the -connection with an equivalent Y-connection

49 43 as shown with the dashed lines in the figure. Since for balanced operation, the neutrals of the equivalent Y-connections have the same potential the single-phase equivalent of both sides can be connected together by a neutral conductor. This is also valid for Y- -connected (or -Y-connected) three-phase transformer. Figure 6.5 shows the single-phase equivalent of a Y- -connected three-phase transformer. a I a N / 3 I A A : N2 N I a 3 2 I A U ab b c U N an n N 2 N U AN C U AB B U an U AN U an N U N = ; = 3 U N U N AB ab 2 AB 2 a) b) Figure 6.5. Single-phase equivalent of a three-phase Y- -connected transformer. It can be shown that U an = N N 2 U AB = 3 N N 2 U AN e j 30, i.e. U an leads U AN by 30 (see also equation (3.6)). In this compendium, this phase shift is not of concern. Furthermore, in this compendium the ratio of rated line-to-line voltages (rather than the turns ration) will be used. Therefore, regardless of the transformer connection, the voltage and current can be transferred from the voltage level on one side to the voltage level on the other side by using the ratio of rated lineto-line voltages as multiplying factor. Also, the transformer losses and magnetizing currents (i.e. i m in Figure 4.8) are neglected. Figure 6.6 shows the single-line diagram of a lossless three-phase transformer which will be used in this compendium. In the figure, U n is the rated line-to-line voltage (given in kv) of U U 2 U U n 2n ; S ; nt x t Figure 6.6. Single-line diagram of a three-phase transformer. the primary side and U 2n is the rated line-to-line voltage (given in kv) of the secondary side. U n /U 2n is the ratio of rated line-to-line voltages. S nt is the transformer three-phase rating given in MVA, and x t is the transformer leakage reactance, normally given as a percent based on the transformer rated (or nominal) values. Finally, U and U 2 are the line-to-line phasor voltages of the transformer terminals.

A component is only given in the diagram if it is of interest for the analysis. Figure 6.7 shows the single-line diagram of a simple balanced three-phase power system. The system consists of four buses (or nodes) numbering from one to four, two generators G and G2, two transformers T and T2, two loads LD and LD2, and a transmission line between bus2 and bus3. G ~ T 2 3 T2 4 Line LD G2 ~ LD2 Figure 6.7. Single-line diagram of a small power system Here-onward, if not otherwise explicitly stated, the following is valid in this compendium: all system quantities (power, voltage, current, impedances and admittances) are given in the complex form, power is given as three-phase power in MVA, MW and/or MVAr, for the phasor voltage U = U θ, the magnitude U is a line-to-line voltage given in kv, however the phase angle θ is the phase angle of a line-to-neutral voltage, currents (given in ka), impedances (given in Ω) and admittances (given in S) are per phase quantities. Consider again the system shown in Figure 6.7. follows: A typical system data can be given as Generator G : S ng =30 MVA, U ng =0 kv, x g =0% Generator G2 : S ng =5 MVA, U ng =6 kv, x g =8% Transformer T : S nt =5 MVA, U n U 2n = Transformer T2 : S nt =5 MVA, U n U 2n = 0 kv 30 kv, x t=0% 30 kv 6 kv, x t=0% Line : r = 0.7 Ω/km, x = 0.3 Ω/km, b c = S/km and L = 0 km Load LD : impedance load, P LD = 5 MW, U n = 30 kv, cos φ = 0.9 inductive Load LD2 : impedance load, P LD = 40 MW, U n = 6 kv, cos φ = 0.8 inductive

51 45 Comments: S ng is the generator three-phase rating, U ng is the generator rated (or nominal) line-to-line voltage and x g is the generator reactance given as a percent based on the generator rated values. The actual value of the generator reactance can be determined by X g = x g Ung 2 Ω and Z g = j X g 00 S ng In a similar way the actual value of the transformer leakage reactance can be determined, however, depending on which side of the transformer it will be calculated. Having the reactance on the primary side, then it is determined by X tp = x t Un 2 Ω and Z tp = j X tp 00 S nt Having the reactance on the secondary side, then it is determined by X ts = x t U2n 2 Ω and Z ts = j X ts 00 S nt For the line, using the model shown in Figure 4.6, we have Z 2 = L (r + jx) Ω and Y sh 2 = jb c L S For the load, P is the consumed three-phase active power with the power factor cos φ at the nominal (or rated) voltage U n. Thus, the impedance load can be determined by Z LD = U 2 n S LD = U 2 n S LD (cos φ j sin φ) = U 2 n S LD (cos φ + j sin φ) where S LD = P LD cos φ Figure 6.8 shows the single-phase impedance diagram corresponding to the single-line diagram shown in Figure 6.7. Z g Z tp Z Line Z ts Z g ~ Z LD Y Ysh Line Z LD2 ~ 2 sh Line 2 G T LD Line T2 LD2 G2 Figure 6.8. Impedance network of a small power system. The simple system shown in Figure 6.8 has three different voltage levels (6, 0 and 30 kv). The analysis of the system can be carried out by transferring all impedances to a single voltage level. This method gives often quite extensive calculations, especially dealing with large systems with several different voltage levels. To overcome this difficulty, the so called per-unit system was developed, and it will be presented in the next section.

52 The per-unit (pu) system A common method to express voltages, currents, powers and impedances in an electric network is in per-unit (or percent) of a certain base or reference value. The per-unit value of a certain quantity is defined as Per-unit value = true value base value of the quantity (6.3) The per-unit method is very suitable for power systems with several voltage levels and transformers. In a three-phase system, the per-unit value can be calculated using the corresponding base quantity. By using the base voltage U b = base voltage, kv (line-to-line voltage) (6.4) and a base power, the base current S b = three-phase base power, MVA (6.5) I b = S b 3 Ub = base current/phase, ka (6.6) as well as a base impedance Z b = U 2 b S b = U b 3 Ib = base impedance, Ω (6.7) can be calculated. In expressions given above, the units kv and MVA have been assumed, which imply units in ka and Ω. Of course, different combinations of units can be used, e.g. V, VA, A, Ω or kv, kva, A, kω. There are several reasons for using a per-unit system: The percentage voltage drop is directly given in the per-unit voltage. It is possible to analyze power systems having different voltage levels in a more efficient way. When having different voltage levels, the relative importance of different impedances is directly given by the per-unit value. When having large systems, numerical values of the same magnitude are obtained which increase the numerical accuracy of the analysis. Use of the constant 3 is reduced in three-phase calculations.

53 Per-unit representation of transformers Figure 6.9 shows the single-phase impedance diagram of a symmetrical three-phase transformer. In Figure 6.9 a), the transformer leakage impedance is given on the primary side, and in Figure 6.9 b), the transformer leakage impedance is given on the secondary side. Furthermore, α is the ratio of rated line-to-line voltages. Thus, based on transformer properties we have U n U 2n = α and I I 2 = α (6.8) Let the base power be S b. Note that S b is a global base value, i.e. it is the same in all different voltages levels. Let also U b and U 2b be the base voltages on the primary side and secondary side, respectively. The base voltages have been chosen such that they have the same ratio as the ratio of the transformer, i.e. U b U 2b = α (6.9) Furthermore, since S b = 3 U b I b = 3 U 2b I 2b, by virtue of equation (6.9) we find that I b I 2b = α (6.0) where, I b and I 2b are the base currents on the primary side and secondary side, respectively. The base impedances on both sides are given by Z b = U 2 b S b = U b 3 Ib and Z 2b = U 2 2b S b = U 2b 3 I2b (6.) I Z tp :α I2 I :α Z ts 2 I U U 2 α U 2 αu U U 2 a) b) Figure 6.9. single-phase impedance diagram of a symmetrical three-phase transformer. Now consider the circuit shown in Figure 6.9 a). The voltage equation is given by U = 3 I Z tp + U 2 α (6.2)

54 48 In per-unit (pu), we have U U b = 3 I Z tp 3 Ib Z b + U 2 α U b = I I b Z tp Z b + U 2 U 2b U pu = I pu Z tppu + U 2pu (6.3) Next, consider the circuit shown in Figure 6.9 b). The voltage equation is given by In per-unit (pu), we have α U U 2b = α U α U b = α U = 3 I 2 Z ts + U 2 (6.4) 3 I2 Z ts 3 I2b Z 2b + U 2 U 2b = I 2 I 2b Z ts Z 2b + U 2 U 2b U pu = I 2pu Z tspu + U 2pu (6.5) By virtue of equations (6.3) and (6.5), we find that I pu Z tppu = I 2pu Z tspu Furthermore, based on equations (6.8) and (6.0) it can be shown that I pu = I 2pu (show that). Thus, Z tppu = Z tspu (6.6) Equation (6.6) implies that the per-unit impedance diagram of a transformer is the same regardless of whether the actual impedance is determined on the primary side or on the secondary side. Based on this property, the single-phase impedance diagram of a three-phase transformer in per-unit can be drawn as shown in Figure 6.0, where Z tpu = Z tppu = Z tspu. U pu I pu Z tpu U or tpu 2 pu U pu I pu Z U2 pu Figure 6.0. Per-unit impedance diagram of a transformer. Example 6. Assume that a 5 MVA transformer has a voltage ratio of 6 kv/30 kv and a leakage reactance of 8 %. Calculate the pu-impedance when the base power of the system is 20 MVA and the base voltage on the 30 kv-side is 33 kv. Solution Based on given data, S nt = 5 MVA, U n /U 2n = 6/30, x t = 8% and U 2b = 33 kv. We first calculate the transformer impedance in ohm on the 30 kv-side and after that, the per-unit value. Z 30kv = Z % 00 Z tb30 = Z % U2n 2 = 00 S nt Z tpu = Z % 00 Z tb30 Z 2b = Z 30kV Z 2b j = j4.8 Ω = Z 30kV S b U 2 2b = j = j0.088 pu

55 49 The given leakage reactance in percent can be considered as the per unit value of reactance based on the transformer ratings, i.e. Z tb. To convert this per unit value to the system per unit value, we may apply the following equation Z tpu new = Z tpu given U 2 b given S b given S b new U 2 b new In our case, Z tpu given = j 8/00, U b given = U 2n = 30, S b given = S nt = 5, S b new = 20, and U b new = 33. Thus, Z tpu new = j = j0.088 pu (6.7) The pu-value of the reactance can be also determined based on the base values on the primary side. From equation (6.9), we have Thus, U b U 2b = α = 6 30 Z b = U 2 b S b = ( α Z 6kv = Z % 00 Z tb6 = Z % Un 2 00 Z tpu = Z 6kV Z b = j U b = 6 30 U 2b = ) 2 ( ) U2b 2 2 = Z 2b S b α = j8 6 2 S nt 00 5 ( 30 6 ) = j = j0.088 pu Per-unit representation of transmission lines Figure 6. shows the π-equivalent model of a line, where y sh kj = Y sh kj /2.

Per-unit impedance diagram of a transmission line System analysis in the per-unit system To analysis a three-phase power system, it is more convenient and effective to convert the physical quantities into the per-unit system as follows:. Choose a suitable base power for the system. It should be in the same range as the rated power of the installed system equipments. 2. Choose a base voltage at one section (or voltage level) of the system. The system is divided into different sections (or voltage levels) by the transformers. 3.

Example 6.2 Consider the power system shown in Figure 6.3, where a load is fed by a generator via a transmission line and two transformers. Based on the given system data below, calculate the load voltage as well as the active power of the load.

U LD = U LDpu U 3b = = 2.72 kv (6.2) P LD = Real(S LDpu ) S b = = 3.7 MW (6.22) Note that the P LD given in the system data (i.e. P LD =4 MW) is the consumed active power at the rated (or nominal) voltage U n =3.2 kv. However, the actual voltage at bus 4 is 2.72 kv. Therefore, the actual consumed power is 3.7 MW.

59 Chapter 7 Power transmission to impedance loads Transmission lines and cables are normally operating in balanced (or symmetrical) conditions, and as shown in Figure 6.2 a three-phase transmission line (or cable) can be represented with a single-phase line equivalent (or more precisely, with a positive-sequence network, see chapter ). This equivalent can be described by a twoport. 7. Twoport theory Assume that a linear, reciprocal twoport is of interest, where the voltage and current in one end are U k and I k whereas the voltage and current in the other end are U j and I j. The conditions valid for this twoport can be described by constants ABCD as [ ] [ ] [ ] U k A B U = j (7.) C D I k Assume that the twoport is shortened in the receiving end, (i.e. U j = 0) according to Figure 7., and that the voltage U is applied to the sending end. I j U I k A C B D I j Figure 7.. Twoport, shortened in the receiving end For the system shown in Figure 7., we have U = A 0 + B I j = B I j (7.2) I k = C 0 + D I j = D I j (7.3) If it is assumed that the twoport is shortened in the sending end instead, (U k = 0) as shown in Figure 7.2, and the voltage U is applied to the receiving end. Then according to Figure I k 2 A C B D I j2 U Figure 7.2. Twoport, shortened in the sending end 53

60 54 7.2, we have 0 = A U B I j2 (7.4) I k2 = C U D I j2 (7.5) The reciprocity theorem gives that I k2 = I j = I (7.6) From the equations given above, the following expressions can be derived : eq. (7.4) I j2 = A B U (7.7) eq. (7.7)+(7.6)+(7.2) I j2 = A I (7.8) eq. (7.2)+(7.5)+(7.8) I = C B I D A I (7.9) eq. (7.9), I 0 A D B C = (7.0) i.e. the determinant of a reciprocal twoport is equal to. This implies that if several reciprocal twoports are connected after one another, the determinant of the total twoport obtained is also equal to. With three reciprocal twoports F, F 2 and F 3 connected after one another, the following is always valid : det(f F 2 F 3 ) = det(f ) det(f 2 ) det(f 3 ) = = (7.) 7.. Symmetrical twoports Assume that a symmetrical linear reciprocal twoport is of interest. If the definitions of directions given in Figure 7.3 is used, a current injected in the sending end I k at the voltage U k I I k A B C D U Figure 7.3. Symmetrical twoport, connection U k gives rise to a current I at the voltage U in the receiving end. This can be written in an equation as [ ] [ ] [ ] U k A B U = (7.2) C D I k Suppose that the circuit is fed in the opposite direction, i.e. U and I are obtained in the sending end according to Figure 7.4. This connection can mathematically be formulated as : [ ] [ ] [ ] U A B U = j (7.3) I C D I j I

61 55 I I j U A C B D U j Figure 7.4. Symmetrical twoport, connection 2 By changing the position of the minus sign inside the matrix, equation (7.3) can be rewritten as [ ] [ ] [ ] U A B U = j (7.4) I C D I j The matrix in equation (7.4) can be inverted which gives that [ U j I j ] [ D B = } A D {{ B C C A } = ] [ U I ] (7.5) Since the twoport is symmetrical, the following is valid [ ] [ ] U j U k The equations (7.2), (7.5) and (7.6) give together that [ ] [ ] A B D B = C D C A I j I k (7.6) (7.7) This concludes that for symmetrical twoports A = D Application of twoport theory to transmission line and transformer and impedance load Note that all variables in this subsection are expressed in (pu).

62 56 From the figure, we have U k = U j + ( ) I j + U j y sh kj Zkj (7.8) I k = U k y sh kj + I j + U j y sh kj These equations can be rewritten as U k = ( ) + Z kj y sh kj U j + Z kj I j (7.9) ( ) I k = y sh kj + + Zkj y sh kj U j + ( Z kj y sh kj + ) I j and by using the matrix notation, this can be written as a twoport equation A B { }} { {}}{ [ ] U k + y sh kj Z kj Z kj [ ] = U j I k y sh kj (2 + y sh kj Z kj ) + y } {{ } sh kj Z kj I j } {{ } C D (7.20) As shown in equation (7.20), a line is symmetrical which gives that A = D. A line is also reciprocal which gives that A D B C =. Using the short line model, then Y sh kj = 0. Therefore, the twoport equation for a short line model is given by [ ] [ ] [ ] U k Zkj U = j (7.2) 0 I k The per-unit impedance diagram of a transformer is similar to the per-unit impedance diagram of a short line. Therefore, the twoport equation for a transformer is similar to the twoport equation of a short line model, i.e. [ ] [ ] [ ] U k Zt U = j (7.22) 0 I k I j I j Figure 7.6 shows the per-unit impedance diagram of an impedance load.

63 57 From the figure, the following can be easily obtained. U k = U j I k = I j + I LD = I j + U j Z LD (7.23) Therefore, the twoport equation for an impedance load is given by [ ] [ ] [ ] U k 0 U = j I k Z LD I j (7.24) 7..3 Connection to network As discussed in section 5.5, based on Thévenin-Helmholtz s theorem from any output terminal in a linear electric network the entire linear electric network seen from the output terminal can be modelled as an ideal voltage source U T h in series with an impedance Z T h. Considering any bus in a linear electric network as an output terminal, seen from any bus k the network can be replaced with a Thévenin equivalent as shown in Figure 7.7, where U k = U T h. Assume that a solid three-phase short circuit (i.e. Z k = 0) is applied to bus k. ~ U Th Z Thk k Figure 7.7. Thévenin equivalent of the network as seen from bus k. This model implies that the short circuit current is I sck = U T h kv 3 ZT hk Ω ka or I sck = U T h p.u p.u (7.25) Z T hk p.u The question is now how well this model can be adapted to real conditions. For instance, consider the simple system shown in Figure 7.8, where LD is an impedance load and short line model is used for the lines. G A T B C T2 D Line ~ LD Figure 7.8. A simple system. Line2 Assume that the initial voltage at bus D is known, i.e. U Di = U Di θ Di (p.u). If the pu-values of all components are known, then as seen from bus D the following Thévenin equivalent can be obtained, E

64 58 ~ U Th Z ThD D Figure 7.9. Thévenin equivalent seen from bus D. where, U T h = U Di and Z T hd = Z t Z LD Z t + Z LD + Z BC + Z t2 If the pu-values of all components are not known, by applying a solid three-phase short circuit to bus D, the short circuit current can be measured and converted to per unit (i.e. I sck (p.u) will be known). Then, the Thévenin impedance as seen from bus D can be calculated as Z T hd = U T h I sck p.u Having connected an impedance load Z LDD (p.u) to bus D, the voltage at bus D will be Z LDD U D = U T h U D = Z LDD Z T hd + Z LDD Z T hd + Z U T h (7.26) LDD i.e., the voltage magnitude at bus D will drop with Z LDD Z T hd + Z.00 % LDD Now assume that the transformer T2 has a regulator to automatically regulate the voltage magnitude at bus D to its initial value, i.e. U D0 (p.u). This kind of transformer is known as On Load Tap Changer (OLTC). When the load is connected to bus D, the OLTC regulates the voltage at bus D to U Di, i.e. U D = U Di not the voltage given in equation (7.26). The Thévenin equivalent is not valid in this case. Thévenin-Helmholtz s theorem is applied to linear circuits with passive components (static linear circuits), and an OLTC is not a passive component. Next, seen from bus E the following Thévenin equivalent can be obtained, ~ U Th Z ThE E Figure 7.0. Thévenin equivalent as seen from bus E. where, Z T he = Z T hd + Z DE and U T h = U Ei.

65 59 Having connected an impedance load Z LDE (p.u) to bus E, the voltage at bus E will be Z LDE U E = U T h U E = Z LDE Z T he + Z LDE Z T he + Z U T h (7.27) LDE i.e., the voltage magnitude at bus E will drop with Z LDE Z T he + Z.00 % LDE If transformer T2 is an OLTC, the voltage at bus D will be recovered to its initial value (i.e. U D = U Di ), but not the voltage at bus E. Therefore, the voltage at bus E when the load i connected will be U E = Z LDE Z DE + Z U Di = Z LDE LDE (Z T he Z T hd ) + Z U Di (7.28) LDE The conclusion is that the equivalent impedance from a bus located out in a distribution system (with a fairly weak voltage) to the closest bus with regulated voltage can be calculated as the difference between the Thévenin impedance from the bus with weak voltage and the Thévenin impedance from the bus with voltage regulation. To calculate the voltage drop at the connection of the load, the calculated equivalent impedance and the voltage at the regulated bus will be used in the Thévenin equivalent model. In some cases, the term short circuit capacity S sck at a bus k is used. It is defined as S sck = U T h I sck = U T h I sck φ sck p.u (7.29) which gives the power that is obtained in the Thévenin impedance. Since this impedance often is mostly reactive, φ sck 90. The short circuit capacity is of interest when the loadability of a certain bus is concerned. The short circuit capacity indicates how much the bus voltage will change for different loading at that bus. The voltage increase at generator buses can be also calculated. Example 7. At a bus with a pure inductive short circuit capacity of 500 MVA (i.e. cos φ sck = 0) an impedance load of 4 MW, cos φ LD = 0.8 at nominal voltage, is connected. Calculate the change in the bus voltage when the load is connected. Solution Assume a voltage of pu and a base power S b = 500 MVA, i.e. S scpu = can then be modeled as shown in Figure The network The Thévenin impedance can be calculated according to equation (7.25) and (7.29) : Z T hpu = U T hpu I scpu The load impedance can be calculated as = U 2 T hpu S scpu = = j (7.30) 90 Z LDpu = U 2 npu S LDpu = U npu 2 P LD (cos φ LD + j sin φ LD ) = 2 4 S b cos φ LD (0.8 + j0.6) (7.3)

Example 7.2 As shown in Figure 7.2, a small industry (LD) is fed by a power system via a transformer (5 MVA, 70/0, x = 4 %) which is located at a distance of 5 km. The electric power demand of the industry is 400 kw at cosφ=0.8, lagging, at a voltage of 0 kv. The industry can be modeled as an impedance load. The 0 kv line has an series impedance of 0.9+j0.3 Ω/km and a shunt admittance of j3 0 6 S/km. Assume that the line is modeled by the π-equivalent. When the transformer is disconnected from bus 3, the voltage at this bus is 70 kv, and a three-phase short circuit applied to this bus results in a pure inductive short circuit current of 0.3 ka. Calculate the voltage at the industry as well as the power fed by the transformer into the line. Power system 3 T 2 Line 70/0 5 km LD Figure 7.2. Single-line diagram of the system in Example 7.2.

Below, a small system is analyzed with a method which can be used for large systems. In Figure 7.4, an impedance load Z LD is fed from an infinite bus (i.e. bus 3 ~ I 3 3 Z t 2 Z 2 I2 I Z LD Figure 7.4. Per unit impedance diagram of a balanced power system. which is the terminal bus of the ideal voltage source) via a transformer with impedance Z t and a line with impedance Z 2. The voltage at the infinite bus is U 3. All variables are expressed in per unit. The Y-bus matrix for this system can be formulated as I I 2 I 3 = I = YU = + Z LD Z 2 Z 2 Z 2 + Z t 0 Z 2 Z t 0 Z t Z t U U 2 U 3 (7.33) The Y-bus matrix can be inverted which results in the corresponding Z-bus matrix : U = Y I = ZI (7.34)

69 63 Since I = I 2 = 0, the third row in equation (7.34) can be written as U 3 = Z(3, 3) I 3 I 3 = U 3 Z(3, 3) (7.35) where Z(3, 3) is an element in the Z-bus matrix. With that value of the current inserted into equation (7.34), all system voltages are obtained. U = Z(, 3) I 3 (7.36) U 2 = Z(2, 3) I 3 Corresponding calculations can be performed for arbitrarily large systems containing impedance loads and one voltage source. a) ~ 3 Z t 2 I LD2 Z 2 Z LD U Z LD2 b) ~ 3 Z t U 2 2 I = ~ Z 2 LD2 0 Z LD U pre Z LD2 c) Z t 2 Z 2 I 2 = I LD 2 U 2 ~ I = 0 Z LD U Z LD2 Figure 7.5. Total voltage obtained by using superposition Assume that an impedance Z LD2 is added to the system at bus 2, as shown in Figure 7.5 a). This will change the voltage magnitudes at all buses with exception of the bus connected to the voltage source (bus 3 in this example). Then, the actual voltages can be expressed by U = U pre + U (7.37) where U is a vector containing the actual voltages due to the change, U pre is a vector containing the voltages of all buses (with exception of the bus connected to the voltage

70 64 source) prior to the change and U is the applied change. This equation can be illustrated graphically as shown in Figure 7.5, i.e. the total voltage can be calculated as a superposition of two systems with equal impedances but with different voltage sources. As indicated by the system in Figure 7.5 c), the feeding voltage is U 2 while the voltage source at bus 3 is shortened (when the voltage source is short circuited the bus connected to the voltage source (i.e. bus 3) is removed). The Y-bus matrix for this system can be obtained by removing the row and column corresponding to bus 3 in Y (see equation (7.33)) since bus 3 is grounded and removed. If bus 3 was kept in the mathematical formulation, Y(3, 3) = since the impedance to ground is zero. [ I I 2 ] [ = I = Y U = + Z LD Z 2 Z 2 Z 2 Z 2 + Z t ] [ U U 2 ] (7.38) The expression given above, can be inverted which gives the corresponding Z-bus matrix : [ ] [ ] [ ] U U = Y I = Z I Z (, ) Z = (, 2) I (7.39) Z (2, ) Z (2, 2) U 2 In this equation, I = 0 which is shown in Figure 7.5 c). This gives that the second row can be written as U 2 = Z (2, 2)I 2 (7.40) Figure 7.4 gives the same currents as Figure 7.5 b), since the voltage over Z LD2 in Figure 7.5 b) is zero. This implies that the current through Z LD2 is zero. Therefore, I 2 = I LD2. At bus 2 in Figure 7.5 a) the following is valid I 2 U 2 = I LD2 Z LD2 = I 2 Z LD2 (7.4) By combining equations (7.37), (7.40) and (7.4), the following can be obtained I 2 = U 2 Z LD2 + Z (2, 2) (7.42) By inserting that value in the equations given above, all voltages after the system change can be calculated as : U Z LD2 2 = Z LD2 + Z (2, 2) U 2 (7.43) U = U Z (, 2) Z LD2 + Z (2, 2) U 2 (7.44) The procedure given above can be generalized to be used for an arbitrarily large system. Assume that an impedance Z r is connected to a bus r and an arbitrary bus is termed i. The current I r (= I r ) through Z r can be calculated as well as the voltages after connection of the impedance Z r at bus r. The equations are as follows. I r = U r Z r + Z (r, r) (7.45) U r = Z r Z r + Z (r, r) U r (7.46) U i = U i Z (i, r) Z r + Z (r, r) U r (7.47)

71 65 Note that i r, and bus r and bus i do not represent the bus connected to the voltage source. The Thévenin equivalent at a bus in a symmetrical network can be calculated by using equations (7.37) and (7.39). At bus r (r=2 in this case), the equation will be as where U (r) = U pre (r) + Z (r, r)i (r) (7.48) U pre (r) = U T hr Thévenin voltage at bus r prior to the change, see Figure 7.6. Z (r, r) = Z T hr Thévenin impedance as seen from bus r, see Figure 7.6. I (r) = I r The actual injected current into bus r. U (r) = U r the actual voltage at bus r. U pre( r) Z ( r, r) ~ U ( r) r I ( r) or ~ U Thr Z Thr U r r I r Figure 7.6. Thévenin equivalent at bus r in a symmetrical three-phase network. As given by equation (7.48) and Figure 7.6, U (r) = U pre (r) if I (r) = 0. This formulation shows that the Thévenin voltage at bus r can be calculated as the voltage at bus r when the bus is not loaded, i.e. I (r) = 0. The Thévenin impedance is found as the r-th diagonal element of the impedance matrix Z which is determined when the voltage source is shortened. Example 7.3 In Figure 7.7, an internal network of an industry is given. Power is delivered by an infinite bus with a nominal voltage at bus.

75 Extended method to be used for power loads The method described in section 7.2 is valid when all system loads are modeled as impedance loads, i.e. the power consumed is proportional to the voltage squared. In steady-state conditions, an often used load model is the constant power model. The method described in section 7.2 can be used in an iterative way, described as follows:. Calculate the per-unit values of all components that are of interest. Loads that are modeled with constant power (independent of the voltage) are replaced by impedances. The impedance of a load at bus k can be calculated as Z LDk = U 2 n/s LDk where U n = pu is the rated (or nominal) voltage, and S LDk is the rated power of the load. 2. Calculate the Y-bus matrix and the corresponding Z-bus matrix of the network as well as the load impedances. By using the method described in section 7.2 (equation (7.35) and (7.36)), the voltage at all buses can be calculated. 3. Calculate the load demand at all loads. The power demand S LDk b at load LDk is obtained as S LDk b = U 2 k /Z LDk where U k is the actual calculated voltage at bus k. 4. Calculate the difference between the actual calculated and specified load demand for all power loads : P LDk = Re(S LDk b ) Re(S LDk ) (7.6) Q LDk = Im(S LDk b ) Im(S LDk ) (7.62) 5. If P LDk and/or Q LDk are too large for a certain bus : (a) Calculate new load impedances according to Z LDk = U 2 k /S LDk where U k is the actual calculated voltage at bus k obtained in step 3, (b) Go back to step 2 and repeat the calculations. If P LDk and Q LDk are found to be acceptable for all power loads, the iteration process is finished. A simple example will be given to clarify this method. Example 7.4 Assume a line operating with a voltage of U = kv in the sending end, i.e. bus, and with a load of P LD = 80 MW and Q LD = 60 MVAr in the receiving end, i.e. bus 2. The line has a length of 00 km with x = 0.4 Ω/km, r = 0.04 Ω/km and b c = S/km. Calculate the receiving end voltage. Solution In Figure 7.9, the network modeled by impedance loads is given. Assume S b = 00 MVA and U b = 225 kv which gives Z b = U 2 b /S b = Ω

This gives the following per-unit values of the line U pu = 225/U b =.0, P LDpu = P LD /S b = 0.8, Q LDpu = Q LD /S b = 0.6 Z 2pu = L (r + j x)/z b = 00 ( j 0.4)/Z b = j Based on equation (4.9), b sh 2pu = L b c Z b /2 = 00 (3 0 6 ) Z b /2 = The iteration process can now be started :.

U 2pu = P LD = 0.000, Q LD = This is found to be acceptable, which gives a voltage magnitude in the sending end of U 2 = U b = kv. This simple example can be solved exactly by using a nonlinear expression which will be shown in Example 8.4. Example 7.5 Consider the system in Example 7.2, but let the short line model be used for the line (i.e. b c = 0), and the load be considered as a constant power load.

79 Chapter 8 Power flow calculations In chapter 6 7, it was assumed that the network had only one voltage source (or generator bus), and the loads were modelled as impedances. These assumptions resulted in using a linear set of equations which could be easily solved. In this chapter, the loads are modelled as constant power loads, and the system has more than one generator bus (i.e. a multi-generator system). First, the power flow in a transmission line will be derived, and then a more general power flow calculations (commonly known as load flow) will be presented. 8. Power flow in a line Consider the the π-equivalent model of a line shown in Figure 8., where all variables expressed in per-unit. S kj U k I Z kj U j I sh jbsh kj jbsh kj Figure 8.. π-equivalent model of a line. Let U k = U k e jθ k, U j = U j e jθ j Z = R + jx, Z = R 2 + X 2 (8.) θ kj = θ k θ j The power S kj in the sending end k is given by ( ( S kj = U k I sh + I ) (j ) U k U ) j = U k bsh kj U k + Z = kj = j b sh kj Uk 2 + U k 2 R jx U ku j R jx ej(θ k θ j ) = = j b sh kj U 2 k + U 2 k X 2 (R + jx) U ku j X 2 (R + jx) (cos θ kj + j sin θ kj ) (8.2) By dividing equation (8.2) into a real and an imaginary part, expressions for the active and 73

80 74 reactive power can be obtained, respectively, as P kj = R Z U 2 2 k + U k U j (X sin θ Z 2 kj R cos θ kj ) = R Z U 2 2 k + U ( ( )) (8.3) k U j R Z sin θ kj arctan X Q kj = b sh kj Uk 2 + X Z U 2 2 k U ku j (R sin θ Z 2 kj + X cos θ kj ) = ( b sh kj + XZ ) U 2 2 k U ( ( )) (8.4) k U j R Z cos θ kj arctan X From equations (8.3) and (8.4), it can be concluded that if the phasor voltages (i.e. the voltage magnitude and phase angle) at both ends of the line are known, the power flow can be uniquely determined. This implies that if the phasor voltages of all buses in a system are known, the power flows in the whole system are known, i.e the phasor voltages define the system state. Example 8. Assume a line where the voltage in the sending end is U = kv and in the receiving end U 2 = kv. The line has a length of 00 km and has x = 0.4 Ω/km, r = 0.04 Ω/km and b = S/km. Calculate the amount of power transmitted from bus to bus 2. Solution Assume S b = 00 MVA and U b = 225 kv, this gives that Z b = U 2 b /S b = Ω The per-unit values for the line are U = 225/U b =.0 pu, U 2 = 23.08/U b = pu, θ 2 = 0-(-3.572) = R = /Z b = pu, X = /Z b = pu, b sh 2 = Z b /2 = pu, Z = R 2 + X 2 = pu The power flow in per-unit can be calculated by using equation (8.3) and (8.4) : P 2 = ( ( )) sin arctan = = pu ( Q 2 = ) ( ( )) cos arctan = = pu expressed in nominal values P 2 = S b = 80.8 MW Q 2 = S b = MVAr

81 75 For this simple system, the calculations can be performed without using the per-unit system. By using equation (6.7), equation (8.3) can be rewritten as P kj (MW) = P kj (pu)s b = U { b 2 R Z b Z U 2 2 k + U ( ( ))} k U j R Z sin θ kj arctan = X = R(Ω) Z 2 (Ω) U k 2 (kv) + U ( ( )) k(kv) U j (kv) R sin θ kj arctan Z(Ω) X i.e. this equation is the same independent on if the values are given as nominal or per-unit values. Note that arctan(r/x) = arctan(r(ω)/x(ω)). For a high voltage overhead line (U > 70 kv), the line reactance is normally considerably higher than the resistance of the line, i.e. R X in equation (8.3). An approximate form of that equation is (i.e. R 0) P kj U ku j X sin θ kj (8.5) i.e. the sign of θ kj determines the direction of the active power flow on the line. Normally, the active power will flow towards the bus with the lowest voltage angle. This holds also for lines having a pronounced resistivity. Assume that the voltages U k and U j are in phase and that the reactance of the line is dominating the line resistance (i.e. R 0). This implies that the active power flow is very small. Equation (8.4) can be rewritten as Q kj = b sh kj U 2 k + U k(u k U j ) X (8.6) Equation (8.6) indicates that this type of line gives a reactive power flow towards the bus with the lowest voltage magnitude. The equation shows that if the difference in voltage magnitude between the ends of the line is small, the line will generate reactive power. This since the reactive power generated by the shunt admittances in that case dominates the reactive power consumed by the series reactance. The rule of thumb that reactive power flows towards the bus with lowest voltage is more vague than the rule that active power flows towards the bus with lowest angle. The fact that overhead lines and especially cables, generates reactive power when the active power flow is low, is important to be aware of. Example 8.2 Using the approximate expressions (8.5) and (8.6), respectively, calculate the active and reactive power flow in the line in Example 8.. Solution P Q sin = pu MW.0( ) = pu MVAr The answers are of right dimension and have correct direction of the power flow but the active power flow is about 8 % too low and the reactive power flow is % too large.

82 Line losses The active power losses on a three-phase line are dependent on the line resistance and the actual line current. By using physical units (i.e. not in per-unit), the losses can be calculated as P f = 3RI 2 (8.7) The squared current dependence in equation (8.7) can be written as I 2 = Ie j arg(i) Ie j arg(i) = I I = S S = S2 3U 3U 3U = P 2 + Q 2 (8.8) 2 3U 2 The active power losses for the line given in Figure 8. can be calculated as P f = R P 2 kj + (Q kj + b sh kj U 2 k )2 U 2 k (8.9) where b sh kj U 2 k is the reactive power generated by the shunt capacitance. at bus k The expression given by (8.9) is valid both for nominal and for per-unit values. This equation shows that a doubling of transmitted active power will increase the active power losses by a factor of four. If the voltage is doubled, the active power losses will decrease with a factor of four. Assume that the active power injections at both ends of the line are known, i.e. both P kj and P jk have been calculated using equation (8.3). The active power losses can then be calculated as P f = P kj + P jk (8.0) The reactive power losses can be obtained in the corresponding manner Q f = 3XI 2 = X P 2 kj + (Q kj + b sh kj U 2 k )2 U 2 k (8.) Equations (8.8) and (8.9) shows that the losses are proportional to S 2 and that the losses will increase if reactive power is transmitted over the line. A natural solution to that is to generate the reactive power as close to the consumer as possible. Of course, active power is also generated as close to the consumer as possible, but the generation costs are of great importance. Example 8.3 Use the same line as in Example 8. and calculate the active power losses. Solution The losses on the line can be calculated by using equation (8.9) and the conditions that apply at the sending end P f (MW) = R P (Q 2 + b sh 2 U 2 ) 2 U 2 S b = = ( ) = 0.8 MW

83 77 The losses can also be calculated by using the receiving end conditions P f (MW) = R P (Q 2 + b sh 2 U2 2 ) 2 S U2 2 b = = ( 0.80)2 + ( ) 2 00 = 0.8 MW or by using equation (8.0) P f (MW) = [P 2 + P 2 ]S b = [ ( 0.80)]00 = 0.8 MW 8..2 Shunt capacitors and shunt reactors As mentioned earlier in subsection 8.., transmission of reactive power will increase the line losses. An often used solution is to generate reactive power as close to the load as possible. This is done by switching in shunt capacitors. Figure 8.2 shows a Y-connected shunt capacitor. Figure 8.2 also shows the single-phase equivalent which can be used at phase a phase b phase c c c c c Three-phase connection Single-phase equivalent Figure 8.2. Y -connected shunt capacitors. symmetrical conditions. A shunt capacitor generates reactive power proportional to the bus voltage squared U 2. In the per-unit system, we have Q sh = B sh U 2 = 2πfc U 2 (8.2) An injection of reactive power into a certain bus will increase the bus voltage, see Example 8.6. The insertion of shunt capacitors in the network is also called phase compensation. This because the phase displacement between voltage and current is reduced when the reactive power transmission through the line is reduced. As mentioned earlier, lines that are lightly loaded generates reactive power. The amount of reactive power generated is proportional to the length of the line. In such situations, the reactive power generation will be too large and it is necessary to consume the reactive power in order to avoid overvoltages. One possible countermeasure is to connect shunt reactors. They are connected and modeled in the same way as the shunt capacitors with the difference that the reactors consume reactive power.

84 Series capacitors By studying equation (8.5), an approximate expression of the maximum amount of power that can be transmitted through a line, at a certain voltage level, can be written as P kj max max θ kj U k U j X sin θ kj = U ku j X (8.3) i.e. the larger the reactance of the line is, the less amount of power can be transmitted. One possibility to increase the maximum loadability of a line is to compensate for the series reactance of the line by using series capacitors. In Figure 8.3, the way of connecting series capacitors is shown as well as the single-phase equivalent of a series compensated line. The phase a phase b phase c c c c Z = R + j( X X ) kj jbsh kj c jb sh kj Three-phase connection Single-phase equivalent Figure 8.3. Series capacitors expression for the maximum loadability of a series compensated line is P kj max U ku j X X c (8.4) It is obvious that the series compensation increases the loadability of the line. The use of series capacitors will also reduce the voltage drop along the line, see Example Non-linear power flow equations The technique of determining all bus voltages in a network is usually called load flow. When knowing the voltage magnitude and voltage angle at all buses, the system state is completely determined and all system properties of interest can be calculated, e.g. line loadings and line losses. In a power system, power can be generated and consumed at many different locations. Consider now a balanced power system with N buses. Figure 8.4 schematically shows connection of the system components to bus k. The generator generates the current I Gk, the load at the bus draws the current I LDk, and I kj is the currents from bus k to the neighboring buses. According to Kirchoff s current law,

85 79 ~ U I k G k I k I k 2 I LD k I kn Figure 8.4. Notation of bus k in a network. the sum of all currents injected into bus k must be zero, i.e. I Gk I LDk = N I kj (8.5) j= By taking the conjugate of equation (8.5) and multiply the equation with the bus voltage, the following holds N U k I Gk U k I LDk = U k I kj (8.6) This can be rewritten as an expression for complex power in the per-unit system as j= where S Gk S LDk = N S kj (8.7) j= S Gk = P Gk + jq Gk is the generated complex at bus k, complex power S LDk = P LDk + jq LDk is the consumed complex power at bus k, complex power S kj = P kj + jq kj is the complex power flow from bus k to bus j. The power balance at the bus according to equation (8.7) must hold both for the active and for the reactive part of the expression. By using P GDk and Q GDk as notation for the net generation of active and reactive power at bus k, respectively, the following expression holds P GDk = P Gk P LDk = Q GDk = Q Gk Q LDk = N P kj (8.8) j= N Q kj (8.9) j= i.e. for any bus k in the system, the power balance must hold for both active and reactive power. Figure 8.5 shows a balanced power system with N = 3.

Based on equations (8.8) and (8.9), the following system of equations can be obtained. P G = P 2 + P 3 Q G = Q 2 + Q 3 P G2 P LD2 = P 2 + P 23 (8.20) Q G2 Q LD2 = Q 2 + Q 23 P LD3 = P 3 + P 32 Q LD3 = Q 3 + Q 32 At each bus in Figure 8.5, four variables are of interest: net generation of active power P GDk, net generation of reactive power Q GDk, voltage magnitude U k and voltage phase angle θ k. This gives that the total number of variables for the system are 3 4 = 2. The voltage phase angles must be given as an angle in relation to a reference angle. This since the phase angles are only relative to one another and not absolute. This reduces the number of system variables to 2 =. However, there are only six equations in the system of equations (8.20), this gives that five quantities must be known to be able to solve for the remaining six variables. Depending on what quantities that are known at a certain bus, the buses are mainly modeled in three different types. PQ-bus, Load bus : For this bus, the net generated power P GDk and Q GDk are assumed to be known. The name PQ-bus is based on that assumption. On the other hand, the voltage magnitude U k and the voltage phase angle θ k are unknown. A PQ-bus is most often a bus with a pure load demand, as bus 3 in Figure 8.5. It represents a system bus where the power consumption can be considered to be independent of the voltage magnitude. This model is suitable for a load bus located on the low voltage side of a regulating transformer. The regulating transformer keeps the load voltage constant independent of the voltage fluctuations on the high voltage side of the transformer. Note that a PQ-bus can be a bus without generation as well as load, i.e. P GDk = Q GDk = 0. This holds e.g. at a bus where a line is connected to a transformer.

87 8 PU-bus, Generator bus : In a PU-bus, the net active power generation P GDk as well as the voltage magnitude U k are assumed to be known. This gives that the net reactive power generation Q GDk and the voltage angle θ k are unknown. In a PU-bus some sort of voltage regulating device must be connected since the voltage magnitude is independent of the net reactive power generation. For example, in a synchronous machine, the terminal voltage can be regulated by changing the magnetizing current. In a system, voltage can be regulated by using controllable components as controllable shunt capacitors and controllable shunt reactors. A standard component is called SVC, Static VAr Compensator. This component change the reactive power flow in order to regulate the bus voltage. Assume that bus 2 in Figure 8.5 is modeled as a PU-bus. This gives that the active power generation of the generator as well as the active power consumption of the load are known. Also the reactive power consumption of the load is known. The bus voltage is constant due to the magnetization system of the generator. The generator may generate or consume reactive power in such a way that the relation in equation (8.9) holds. Uθ-bus, Slack bus : At a slack bus (only one bus in each system), The voltage magnitude and the voltage phase angle are known and fixed. The voltage phase angle is chosen as a the reference phase angle in the system. Normally, the phase angle θ k is set to zero. Unknown quantities are the net generation of both active and reactive power. At this bus, (as for the PU-bus) a voltage regulating component must be present. Since the active power is allowed to vary, a generator or an active power in-feed into the system is assumed to exist at this bus. Since this bus also is the only bus where the active power is allowed to vary, the slack bus will take care of the system losses since they are unknown. If the loads have been modeled in the load flow as constant power loads and a line is tripped, the only bus which will change the active power generation is the slack bus. If bus is chosen as slack bus in Figure 8.5, both P G and Q G are unknown but the voltage U is given as well as the reference angle θ = 0. Assume that M of the system N buses are PU-buses. A summary of the different bus types is given in Table 8.. As given in equations (8.3) (8.4), the active and reactive power flow Bus model Number Known quantities Unknown quantities Uθ-bus, Slack bus U, θ P GD, Q GD PU-bus, Generator bus M P GD, U Q GD, θ PQ-bus, Load bus N-M- P GD, Q GD U, θ Table 8.. Bus types for load flow calculations through a line can be expressed as a function of the voltage magnitude and voltage phase angle at both ends of the line. Assume that the power system in Figure 8.5 is modeled in such a way that bus is a slack bus, bus 2 is a PU-bus and bus 3 is a PQ-bus. By using this bus type modeling, the system of equations (8.20) can be written as P GD (unknown) = P 2 (U, θ, U 2, θ 2 ) + P 3 (U, θ, U 3, θ 3 ) Q G (unknown) = Q 2 (U, θ, U 2, θ 2 ) + Q 3 (U, θ, U 3, θ 3 ) P GD2 = P 2 (U, θ, U 2, θ 2 ) + P 23 (U 2, θ 2, U 3, θ 3 ) (8.2) Q GD2 (unknown) = Q 2 (U, θ, U 2, θ 2 ) + Q 23 (U 2, θ 2, U 3, θ 3 ) P GD3 = P 3 (U, θ, U 3, θ 3 ) + P 32 (U 2, θ 2, U 3, θ 3 ) Q GD3 = Q 3 (U, θ, U 3, θ 3 ) + Q 32 (U 2, θ 2, U 3, θ 3 )

88 82 where also θ 2, U 3 and θ 3 are unknown quantities whereas the others are known. As given in equation (8.2), unknown power quantities appear only on the left hand side for buses modeled as slack and PU-bus. These quantities can be easily calculated when voltage magnitudes and angles are known. These equations are not contributing to the system of equations since they only give one extra equation, and one extra variable which easily can be calculated. The system of equations in (8.2) can therefore be simplified to a system of equations containing unknown U and θ as P GD2 = P 2 (U, θ, U 2, θ 2 ) + P 23 (U 2, θ 2, U 3, θ 3 ) P GD3 = P 3 (U, θ, U 3, θ 3 ) + P 32 (U 2, θ 2, U 3, θ 3 ) Q GD3 = Q 3 (U, θ, U 3, θ 3 ) + Q 32 (U 2, θ 2, U 3, θ 3 ) (8.22) The system of equations given by (8.22) is non-linear since the expressions for power flow through a line (equation (8.3) (8.4)) include squared voltages as well as trigonometric expressions. This system of equations can e.g. be solved by using the Newton-Raphson s method. The system of equations given by (8.22) can be generalized to a system containing N buses, of which M have a voltage regulating device in operation. A summary of this system is given in Table 8.2. As indicated in Table 8.2, the system of equations contains as many unknown Bus model Number Balance equations Unknown quantities P GDk = P kj Q GDk = Q kj U k θ k Slack bus 0 st 0 st 0 st 0 st PU-bus M M st 0 st 0 st M st PQ-bus N-M- N-M- st N-M- st N-M- st N-M- st Total N 2N-M-2 2N-M-2 Table 8.2. Summary of equations and unknown quantities at load flow calculations quantities as the number of equations, and by that, the system is solvable. 8.3 Power flow calculations of a simple two-bus system As shown in section 8.2, constant power loads give a non-linear system of equations, and load flow solution for large power system requires soft-ware tools such as MATLAB which will be used in this course. To understand the concept of load flow solution, in this section a simple two-bus system is studied. Since for load flow solution, a bus bus must be a slack bus, there are therefore two possible bus-type combinations, namely, slack bus + PU-bus and slack bus + PQ-bus which can be analytically handled. Consider the two-bus power system shown in Figure 8.6. The data given in Example 8. is used for this system. Let bus be a slack bus with U = kv. Let also P LD2 = 80 MW.

89 83 2 Z 2 jb jbsh 2 sh 2 S 2 S P LD2 = + jq LD2 LD2 Figure 8.6. Single-line diagram of a balanced two-bus power system Slack bus + PU-bus This combination is of interest when the voltage magnitude is known at both buses and the net active power (i.e. P GD ) is known at one of the buses. This implies that the only unknown quantity is the voltage phase angle at the PU-bus, i.e. the bus having a known net active power P GD. Example 8.4 Let bus 2 be a PU-bus with U 2 = kv. Calculate the voltage phase angle at bus 2 (the same as example 7.4). Find also Q 2 in MVAr. Solution From equation (8.3) we have where, P 2 = R Z U U 2 U Z ( R θ 2 = θ + arctan X ( ( )) R sin θ 2 arctan X ) ( Z + arcsin U 2 U ( P 2 R Z U )) P 2 = P GD2 = (0 P LD2 )/S b = 0.8 pu, arctan R X = arctan = 5.7 Thus, ( ( θ 2 = arcsin )) = From equation (8.4), we have Q 2 = [( b sh 2 + XZ ) U U ( ( ))] 2 U R Z cos θ 2 arctan S b X [( = ) ] cos( ) = MVAr, from MATLAB

90 Slack bus + PQ-bus This combination is of interest when the voltage magnitude is known only at one of the buses and the net active and reactive power generation are known at the other bus. Example 8.5 Now let bus 2 be a PQ-bus, and Q LD2 = Q 2 where Q 2 has been obtained in Example 8.4. Calculate the voltage magnitude and phase angle at bus 2. Solution Based on equations (8.3) and (8.4), by eliminating θ 2, the voltage magnitude U 2 can be analytically found, and it is given by where U 2 2 = a 4 2a 3 + ( ) ( a4 2a 3 ) 2 a 3 (a 2 + a 2 2) (8.23) a = R P 2 X Q 2 a 2 = X P 2 + R Q 2 a 3 = ( X b sh 2 ) 2 + R 2 b 2 sh 2 The voltage U 2 can now be calculated as In our case, a 4 = 2 a ( X b sh 2 ) U 2 + 2a 2 R b sh 2 U 2 = + ( ) U 2 2 (8.24) a = ( 0.8) ( ) = a 2 = ( 0.8) ( 0.6)) = a 3 = ( ) = a 4 = ( ) = U2 2 = ( ) U 2 = + ( ) = = U 2 (kv) = U b = kv The voltage phase angle can now be calculated in the same way as performed in example 8.4, which results in the the same answer.

91 85 Example 8.6 Use the data given in Example 8.5 with P D2 = 80 MW and Q D2 60 MVAr. Use these load levels as a base case and calculate the voltage U 2 when the active and reactive load demand are varying between 0 00 MW and 0 00 MVAr, respectively. Solution By using equations (8.23) and (8.24), the voltage can be calculated. The result is shown in Figure 8.7. The base case, i.e. P D2 = 80 MW and Q D2 = 60 MVAr, is marked by circles on U2 [kv] PD2=80 MW, QD2=0-00 MVAr QD2=60 MVAr, PD2=0-00 MW MW or MVAr Figure 8.7. The voltage U 2 as a function of P D2 and Q D2 both curves. As shown in the figure, the voltage drops at bus 2 as the load demand increases. The voltage at bus 2 is much more sensitive to a change in reactive load demand compared to a change in active demand. If a shunt capacitor generating 0 MVAr is connected at bus 2 when having a reactive load demand of 60 MVAr, the net demand of reactive power will decrease to 50 MVAr and the bus voltage will increase by two kv, from 23 kv to 25 kv. As discussed earlier in subsection 8.., a reduced reactive power load demand will also reduce the losses on the line. Example 8.7 Use the base case in Example 8.6, i.e. P D2 = 80 MW and Q D2 = 60 MVAr. Calculate the voltage U 2 when the series compensation of the line is varied in the interval 0 00 %. Solution A series compensation of 0 00 % means that 0 00 % of the line reactance is compensated by series capacitors. 0 % means no series compensation at all and 00 % means that X c = X. The voltage can be calculated by using equations (8.23) and (8.24). The result is shown in Figure 8.8. As shown in Figure 8.8, the voltage at bus 2 increases as the degree of series compensation increases. If the degree of compensation is 40 %, the voltage at bus 2 is increased by 4.5 kv (= 2 %) from 23. kv to 27.6 kv. When having short lines or when only interested in approximate calculations, the shunt capacitance of a line can be neglected. In these conditions, b sh 2 in equation (8.23) is

92 U2 [kv] % compensation Figure 8.8. The voltage U 2 as a function of degree of compensation neglected, and the equation will be rewritten as (U U 2 2 2a + U 2 = 2 ( ) where 2a 2 a = R P 2 X Q 2 a 2 = X P 2 + R Q 2 ) 2 (a 2 + a 2 2) (8.25) Example 8.8 Use the data given in Example 8.5. Calculate the magnitude of the voltage by using the approximate expression given by equation (8.25). Solution Equation (8.25) gives that a = ( 0.8) ( 0.6) = a 2 = ( 0.6) ( 0.8) = U 2 = U 2 (kv) = S b = 2.72 kv i.e. the voltage becomes 0.6 % too low compared to the more accurate result. Another approximation often used, is to neglect a 2 in equation (8.25). That equation can then be rewritten as U 2 U U R P 2 + X Q 2 (8.26)

93 87 Example 8.9 Use the same line as in example 8.5. approximate expression given by equation (8.26). Calculate the voltage by using the Solution Equation (8.26) gives that U 2 = U 2 (kv ) = S b = 22.8 kv i.e. the calculated voltage is 0.4 % too low. As indicated in this example, equation (8.26) gives a good approximation of the voltage drop on the line. In the equation, it is also clearly given that the active and reactive load demand have influence on the voltage drop. The reason why the voltage drop is more sensitive to a change in reactive power compared to a change in active power, is that the line reactance dominates the line resistance. 8.4 Newton-Raphson method 8.4. Theory The Newton-Raphson method may be applied to solve for x, x 2,, x n of the following non-linear equations, g (x, x 2,, x n ) = f (x, x 2,, x n ) b = 0 g 2 (x, x 2,, x n ) = f 2 (x, x 2,, x n ) b 2 = 0. g n (x, x 2,, x n ) = f n (x, x 2,, x n ) b n = 0 (8.27) or in the vector form g(x) = f(x) b = 0 (8.28) where x g (x) f (x) b x 2 x =., g(x) = g 2 (x)., f(x) = f 2 (x)., b = b 2. g n (x) f n (x) x n b n x is an n vector which contains variables, b is an n vector which contains constants, and f(x) is an n vector-valued function. Taylor s series expansion of (8.28) is the basis for the Newton-Raphson method of solving (8.28) in an iterative manner. From an initial estimate (or guess) x (0), a sequence of gradually better estimates x (), x (2), x (3), will be made that hopefully will converge to the solution x.

94 88 Let x be the solution of (8.28), i.e. g(x ) = 0, and x (i) be an estimate of x. Let also x (i) = x x (i). Equation (8.28) can now be written as Taylor s series expansion of (8.29) gives where g(x ) = g(x (i) + x (i) ) = 0 (8.29) g(x (i) + x (i) ) = g(x (i) ) + JAC (x(i)) x (i) = 0 (8.30) [ ] g(x) JAC (x(i)) = x where, JAC ia called the jacobian of g. x=x (i) = From (8.30), x (i) can be calculated as follows g (x) g (x) x n x..... g n (x) x g n (x) x n x=x(i) (8.3) JAC (x(i)) x (i) = 0 g(x (i) ) = g(x (i) ) (8.32) [ x (i) = JAC )] (x(i) g(x (i) ) (8.33) Since g(x (i) ) = f(x (i) ) b, g(x (i) ) is given by Furthermore, since b is constant, JAC (x(i)) is given by [ ] g(x) JAC (x(i)) = x g(x (i) ) = b f(x (i) ) = g(x (i) ) (8.34) x=x (i) = [ ] f(x) x x=x (i) = f (x) f (x) x n x..... f n(x) x f n(x) x n x=x(i) (8.35) Therefore, x (i) can be calculated as follows x (i) = x (i). x (i) n = f (x) Finally, the following is obtained f (x) x n x..... f n(x) x f n(x) x n i = i + x=x (i) x (i) = x (i ) + x (i ) b f (x (i),, x (i) n ). b n f n (x (i),, x (i) n ) (8.36) The intention is that x () will estimate the solution x better than what x (0) does. In the same manner, x (2), x (3), can be determined until a specified condition is satisfied. Thus, we obtain an iterative method according to the flowchart in Figure 8.9.

Therefore, the solution becomes x = (rad.) or x = (deg.). MATLAB-codes for this example can be found in appendix B. Analysis of Example 8.0 Figure 8.0 shows variations of g(x) versus x. The figure shows that the system (or equation) has only three solutions, i.e. the points at which g(x) = 0. Due to practical issues, x indicted with (O) in the figure is the interesting solution x * g(x) x Figure 8.0. Variations of g(x) vs. x. Figure 8. shows how the equation is solved by the Newton-Raphson method. We first guess the initial estimate x (0). In this case x (0) = (rad.), i.e 3 (deg.). The tangent to g(x) through the point ( x (0), g(x (0) ) ) [ ], i.e. g (x (0) ) = dg(x) = JAC(x(0)), dx x=x (0) intersects the x axis at point x (). The equation for this tangent is given by Y g(x (0) ) = g (x (0) ) (x x (0) ) The intersection point x () is obtained by setting Y = 0, i.e. x () = x (0) g(x(0) ) g (x (0) ) = x(0) ( g (x (0) ) ) g(x (0) ) x (0) = x () x (0) = ( g (x (0) ) ) [ g(x (0) ) = JAC )] (x(0) g(x (0) )

As shown in the figure, from x (2) we obtain x (3) which is a better estimate of x than what x (2) does. This iterative method will be continued until g(x) < ɛ. Example 8.

Let g kj + j b kj = Z kj = R + j X = R Z + j X 2 Z 2 g kj = R Z 2 (8.37) b kj = X Z 2 Based on (8.37), we rewrite (8.3) and (8.4) as follows P kj = g kj Uk 2 U k U j [g kj cos(θ kj ) + b kj sin(θ kj )] (8.38) Q kj = Uk 2 ( b sh kj b kj ) U k U j [g kj sin(θ kj ) b kj cos(θ kj )] (8.39)

Let Y = G + jb denote the admittance matrix of the system (or Y-matrix), where Y is an N N matrix, i.e. the system has N buses. The relation between the injected currents into the buses and the voltages at the buses is given by I = Y U, see section 5.. Therefore, the injected current into bus k is given by I k = N j= Y kj U j. The injected complex power into bus k can now be calculated by S k = U k I k = U k N j= Y kju j = U k N j= (G kj jb kj ) U j (cos(θ kj ) + j sin(θ kj )) = ( U k N j= U j [G kj cos(θ kj ) + B kj sin(θ kj )] ) ( + j U k N j= U j [G kj sin(θ kj ) B kj cos(θ kj )] ) Let P k denote the real part of S k, i.e. the injected active power, and Q k denote the imaginary part of S k, i.e. the injected reactive power, as follows: P k = U k Q k = U k N j= N j= U j [G kj cos(θ kj ) + B kj sin(θ kj )] U j [G kj sin(θ kj ) B kj cos(θ kj )] (8.43) Note that G kj = g kj and B kj = b kj for k j. Furthermore, P k = Q k = N j= N j= P kj Q kj Equations (8.8) and (8.9) can now be rewritten as P k P GDk = 0 Q k Q GDk = 0 (8.44)

Therefore, θ becomes an (N ) vector and U becomes an (N M) vector, why? Based on (8.34), we define the following: P k = P GDk P k Q k = Q GDk Q k Based on (8.35), the jacobian matrix is given by where, JAC = f P (θ,u) θ f Q (θ,u) θ k slack bus k slack bus and PU-bus f P (θ,u) U f Q (θ,u) U H is an (N ) (N ) matrix N is an (N ) (N M ) matrix J is an (N M ) (N ) matrix L is an (N M ) (N M ) matrix The entries of these matrices are given by: H kj = P k θ j k slack bus j slack bus (8.46) H N = (8.47) J L N kj = P k U j k slack bus j slack bus and PU-bus J kj = Q k θ j k slack bus and PU-bus j slack bus L kj = Q k U j k slack bus and PU-bus j slack bus and PU-bus Based on (8.32), (8.46) and (8.47), the following is obtained [ ][ ] [ ] H N θ P J L = U Q (8.48) To simplify the entries of the matrices N and L, these matrices are multiplied with U. Then, (8.48) can be rewritten as [H J N L ][ ] θ U = U [ ] P Q (8.49)

109 Chapter 9 Analysis of three-phase systems using linear transformations In this chapter, the possibilities of using linear transformations in order to simplify the analysis of three-phase systems, are briefly discussed. These transformations are general and are valid under both symmetrical and un-symmetrical conditions. By generalizing the expressions for a symmetric three-phase voltage given in equations (3.) and (3.5), corresponding expressions for an arbitrary three-phase voltage at constant frequency can be obtained as u a (t) = U Ma cos(ωt + γ a ) u b (t) = U Mb cos(ωt + γ b ) u c (t) = U Mc cos(ωt + γ c ) U a = U a γ a U b = U b γ b U c = U c γ c (9.) where U Ma, U Mb, U Mc are peak values, U a, U b, U c are RMS-values and γ a, γ b, γ c are phase angles of the three voltages. For the un-symmetrical currents, corresponding expressions hold as i a (t) = I Ma cos(ωt + γ a φ a ) i b (t) = I Mb cos(ωt + γ b φ b ) i c (t) = I Mc cos(ωt + γ c φ c ) I a = I a γ a φ a I b = I b γ b φ b I c = I c γ c φ c (9.2) where I Ma, I Mb, I Mc are peak values, I a, I b, I c are RMS-values of the three phase currents whereas φ a, φ b, φ c are the phase of the currents in relation to the corresponding phase voltage. The mean value of the total three-phase active power can be calculated as P 3 = U Ma 2 I Ma 2 cos φ a + U Mb 2 I Mb 2 cos φ b + U Mc 2 I Mc 2 cos φ c (9.3) whereas the total three-phase complex power is S 3 = U a I a + U b I b + U c I c = (U a I a cos φ a + U b I b cos φ b + U c I c cos φ c ) + + j(u a I a sin φ a + U b I b sin φ b + U c I c sin φ c ) (9.4) This phase representation is in many cases sufficient for a three-phase system analysis. There are a number of important cases when the analysis can greatly be simplified by using linear transformations. This chapter discusses the following items. First, the advantages of using linear transformations in three-phase system analysis are generally discussed. Later on, some specific transformations to be used in certain conditions are given. In order to really understand the subject of transformations, the reader is referred to text books on the subject, e.g. in electric machine theory or high power electronics. In chapter 0, one of the transformations of interest, symmetrical components, is discussed in more detail. The purpose of chapter 9 is to show that the idea and the mathematics behind the transformations are the same. It is only the choice of linear transformation, i.e. transformation matrix, that is different. 03

110 04 9. Linear transformations By using transformations, components are mapped from an original space (the original space is here the instantaneous values or the complex representation of the phase quantities) to an image space. A linear transformation means that the components in the image space are a linear combination of the original space. The complex values of the phase voltages can be mapped with a linear transformation as which in matrix form can be written as U A U B = U C or in a more compact notation U A = w aa U a + w ab U b + w ac U c U B = w ba U a + w bb U b + w bc U c (9.5) U C = w ca U a + w cb U b + w cc U c w aa w ab w ac w ba w bb w bc w ca w cb w cc U a U b U c (9.6) U ABC = WU abc (9.7) The elements in matrix W are independent of the values of the original and image space components. In this example, the components in the original space U a, U b and U c are mapped by using the linear transformation W to the image space components U A, U B and U C. The original space components can be calculated from the image space components by using the inverse of matrix W (W = T), i.e. U abc = W U ABC = TU ABC (9.8) The only mappings that are of interest, are those where W are existing. In the following, the matrix T or its inverse T will represent the linear transformation. 9.. Power invarians A usual demand for the linear transformations in power system analysis is that it should be possible to calculate the electric power in the image space by using the same expressions as in the original space and that the two spaces should give the same result. A transformation that can meet that requirement is called power invariant. Using the complex representation, the electric power in the original space can be calculated by using equation (9.4), this gives where t indicates the transpose. In the image space, the corresponding expression is S abc = U a I a + U b I b + U c I c = U t abc I abc (9.9) S ABC = U A I A + U B I B + U C I C = U t ABCI ABC (9.0)

111 05 Power invarians implies that S ABC = S abc, i.e. U t ABCI ABC = U t abci abc = (TU ABC ) t (TI ABC ) = U t ABCT t T I ABC (9.) This gives that the transformation matrix T must fulfill the following condition : 0 0 T t T = ((T ) t T) t = = 0 0 (9.2) 0 0 which leads to T = (T ) t (9.3) If T is real, equation (9.3) implies that T is an orthogonal matrix The coefficient matrix in the original space Consider a three-phase line between two buses. The voltage drop U abc over the line depends on the current I abc flowing in the different phases. The voltage drop can be expressed as U a Z aa Z ab Z ac I a U abc = U b = Z ba Z bb Z bc I b = Z abc I abc (9.4) U c Z ca Z cb Z cc I c where Z abc is the coefficient matrix of the line. Note that each element in Z abc is non-zero since a current in one phase has influence on the voltage drop in the other phases owing to the mutual inductance, see chapter. Symmetrical matrices A matrix that is symmetrical around its diagonal is called a symmetrical matrix (or more precisely, Hermitian if the matrix contains complex entries). For the Z-bus matrix in equation (9.4), this implies that Z ab = Z ba, Z ac = Z ca and Z bc = Z cb, i.e. Z abc = Z aa Z ab Z ac Z ab Z bb Z bc Z ac Z bc Z cc = Z t abc (9.5) An example of a symmetrical matrix is the one representing a line (or a cable) where the non-diagonal element are dependent on the mutual inductance, which is equal between the phases a b and the phases b a, see chapter. Cyclo-symmetrical matrices The Z-bus matrix in equation (9.4) is cyclo-symmetric if Z ab = Z bc = Z ca, Z ba = Z ac = Z cb and Z aa = Z bb = Z cc, i.e. Z aa Z ab Z ba Z abc = Z ba Z aa Z ab (9.6) Z ab Z ba Z aa

112 06 All normal three-phase systems are cyclo-symmetrical, i.e. if i a, i b, i c are permuted to i b, i c, i a, the voltages u a, u b, u c will also be permuted to u b, u c, u a. This implies that ordinary overhead lines, cables, transformers and electrical machines can be represented by cyclosymmetrical matrices The coefficient matrix in the image space If both sides of equation (9.4) are multiplied with the matrix T, the following is obtained U ABC = T U abc = T Z abc I abc = (T Z abc T)I ABC = Z ABC I ABC (9.7) where Z ABC = T Z abc T (9.8) Z ABC is the image space mapping of the coefficient matrix Z abc. This gives that if U ABC represents the image space voltages, and I ABC represents the image space currents then Z ABC will represent the impedances in the image space. One reason of introducing a linear transformation may be to obtain a diagonal coefficient matrix in the image space, i.e. Z AA 0 0 Z ABC = 0 Z BB 0 (9.9) 0 0 Z CC By having a diagonal coefficient matrix, equation (9.7) can be rewritten as U A = Z AA I A U B = Z BB I B (9.20) U C = Z CC I C i.e. the matrix equation (9.7) with mutual couplings between the phases is replaced by three un-coupled equations. If Z ABC is diagonal as in equation (9.9), both sides in equation (9.8) can be multiplied with T and rewritten as TZ ABC = T T 2 T 3 Z AA Z BB Z CC = Z AA T Z BB T 2 Z CC T 3 = Z abc T = Z abc T T 2 T 3 (9.2) = where T, T 2, T 3 are the columns of T. Equation (9.2) can be rewritten as Z abc T Z AA T = 0 Z abc T 2 Z BB T 2 = 0 (9.22) Z abc T 3 Z CC T 3 = 0

113 07 i.e. Z AA, Z BB and Z CC are the eigenvalues of matrix Z abc and the vectors T, T 2 and T 3 are the corresponding eigenvectors. A transformation that maps the matrix Z to a diagonal form should have a transformation matrix T having columns that are the eigenvectors of the matrix Z. Note that eigenvectors can be scaled arbitrarily. 9.2 Examples of linear transformations that are used in analysis of three-phase systems In the following, four commonly used linear transformations will be briefly introduced. In general, transformations can be presented in a little bit different way in different text books. It is therefore of importance to understand the definitions used by the authors Symmetrical components In the analysis of un-symmetrical conditions in a power system, symmetrical components are commonly used. This complex, linear transformation uses the fact that all components (lines, machines, etc.) in normal systems are cyclo-symmetrical, i.e. their impedances can be modeled by equation (9.6). The power invariant transformation matrix and its inverse for the symmetrical components are T S = 3 α 2 α α α 2 T S = 3 α α 2 α 2 α (9.23) where α = e j20. As given by the definition T S = (T S )t which corresponds to the assumption of power invariant according to equation (9.3). By using this transformation, cyclo-symmetrical matrices are transformed into a diagonal form as given in equation (9.9), i.e. the columns of matrix T S consist of the eigenvectors to a cyclo-symmetrical matrix. This will simplify the system analysis as indicated in equation (9.20). Using the given phasor voltages U a, U b and U c, the power invariant symmetrical components can be calculated as U s = U 0 U U 2 = T S U abc = 3 α α 2 α 2 α U a U b U c (9.24) The three components U 0, U and U 2 are called zero-sequence, positive-sequence and negativesequence, respectively. A cyclo-symmetrical impedance matrix according to equation (9.6) can be diagonalized by using symmetrical components according to equation (9.8) as Z S = T S Z aa Z ab Z ba Z ba Z aa Z ab Z ab Z ba Z aa T S = Z Z Z 2 (9.25)

114 08 where Z 0 = Z aa + Z ab + Z ba = zero-sequence impedance Z = Z aa + α 2 Z ab + αz ba = positive-sequence impedance (9.26) Z 2 = Z aa + αz ab + α 2 Z ba = negative-sequence impedance The three impedances Z 0, Z and Z 2 are the eigenvalues of the cyclo-symmetrical impedance matrix. For an impedance matrix that is both cyclo-symmetric and symmetric, i.e. Z ba = Z ab, the result after a diagonalization will be that Z 0 = Z aa + 2Z ab Z = Z aa Z ab (9.27) Z 2 = Z aa Z ab Transformers, overhead lines, cables and symmetrical loads (not electrical machines) can be normally represented by impedance matrices that are both symmetrical and cyclo-symmetrical, i.e. all diagonal elements are equal and all non-diagonal elements are equal. This gives that the positive-sequence impedance and the negative-sequence impedance are equal. In order to make the positive-sequence phasor voltage equal to the line-to-neutral phasor voltage, a reference invariant form of transformation for the symmetrical components is normally used. The reference invariant transformation matrix and its inverse are T S = α 2 α α α 2 = 3 T S T S = 3 α α 2 α 2 α = 3 T S (9.28) The reference invariant transformation is not power invariant since T S = 3 (T S )t. The name reference invariant means that in symmetrical conditions U = U a. Note that transformations of coefficient matrices, according to equation (9.8), are not influenced whether the power invariant or the reference invariant matrix is used since Z ABC (eff inv) = T S Z abct S = ( 3 T S ) ( ) Z abc 3TS = = T S Z abc T S = Z ABC (ref inv) (9.29) A third variation of the transformation matrix for the symmetrical components arises when the ordering of the sequences is changed. If the positive-sequence is given first and the zero-sequence last, the columns of the T-matrix and the rows in the T are permuted, respectively. This results in the following reference invariant transformations matrices : T S = α 2 α T α α 2 S = α α 2 α 2 α (9.30) 3 This form of the transformation matrices will be used in chapter 0 where symmetrical components are discussed in more detail. The only thing that happens with the coefficient matrix in the image space is that the diagonal elements change places. As described above, a number of different variations of the symmetrical components can be used, all having the same fundamental purpose, to diagonalize the cyclo-symmetrical impedance matrices.

115 Clarke s components Clarke s components, also called α β-components or orthogonal components, divides those phase-quantities not having any zero-sequence into two orthogonal components. The word zero-sequence means the same as when discussing symmetrical components, the sum of the phase components. Components that do not have zero-sequence are those whose sum is equal to zero. The power invariant (T = (T ) t, see equation (9.3)) transformation matrix and its inverse for the Clarke s components are T C = T C = (9.3) Clarke s components are a real orthogonal transformation that is mainly used in transformations of time quantities, e.g. i 0 (t) i α (t) i β (t) = i 0αβ (t) = T C i abc(t) = i a (t) i b (t) i c (t) (9.32) where i 0 (t) is the zero-sequence component, i α (t) is the α-component and i β is the β- component for Clarke s transformation of the phase currents i a (t), i b (t) and i c (t). The reason why the transformation is orthogonal is given by column two and three of T C (corresponds to the α- and β-components) since the columns are orthogonal. For a symmetrical three-phase current given by equation (3.3) i a (t) = I M cos(ωt φ) i b (t) = I M cos(ωt 20 φ) (9.33) i c (t) = I M cos(ωt + 20 φ) the Clarke s components are given by equation (9.32) i 0 (t) = (i a (t) + i b (t) + i c (t)) = 0 3 ( 2 i α (t) = i a (t) 3 2 i b(t) ) 2 i c(t) = ( ) i β (t) = 3 2 i b(t) 2 i c(t) = 3 2 I M cos(ωt φ) (9.34) 3 2 I M cos(ωt φ 90 ) As given above, conditions not having any zero-sequence can be fully represented by Clarke s α- and β-components. Conditions not having any zero-sequence are quite common and depends, among other things, on the type of transformer connection used. Matrices that are both symmetrical and cyclo-symmetrical can be diagonalized by using

116 0 Clarke s transform as Z C = T C = Z aa Z ab Z ab Z ab Z aa Z ab Z ab Z ab Z aa T C = Z aa + 2Z ab Z aa Z ab Z aa Z ab (9.35) For this type of matrices, the diagonalization based on Clarke s components gives exactly the same answer as the diagonalization based on symmetrical components, see equations (9.25) and (9.27). This gives that the matrix representation of transformers, overhead lines, cables and symmetrical loads (not electrical machines) can be diagonalized. The advantage of using Clarke s components is that the transformation is real which implies that the mapping of real instantaneous quantities are also real. The disadvantage is that electrical machines cannot be represented by three independent variables by using Clarke s components. Clarke s components are used in order to simplify the analysis of e.g. circuits, transient system behavior, converter operation, etc. multi-phase short Park s transformation Park s transformation (also called dq-transformation or Blondell s transformation) is a linear transformation between the three physical phases and three new components. This transformation is often used when analyzing synchronous machines. In Figure 9., a simplified description of the internal conditions of a synchronous machine having salient poles, is given. Two orthogonal axis are defined. One is directed along the magnetic flux induced in the rotor. The second axis is orthogonal to the first axis. The first axis is called the direct-axis (d-axis) and the second axis is called the quadrature-axis (q-axis). Note that this system of coordinates follows the rotation of the rotor. The machine given in Figure 9. is a two-pole machine, but Park s transformation can be used for machines having an arbitrary number of poles. As indicated above, Park s transformation is time independent since the displacement between the dq-axes and the abc-axes is changed when the rotor revolves. The Park s transformation includes not only the d- and q-components, but also the zero-sequence in order to achieve a complete representation. The connection between phase currents i a, i b, and i c and the dq0-components is given by the notation given in Figure 9. i 0 = (i a + i b + i c ) 3 i d = i q = 2 3 (i a cos β + i b cos (β 20 ) + i c cos (β + 20 )) 2 3 (i a sin β + i b sin (β 20 ) + i c sin (β + 20 )) (9.36)

117 Direction of rotation a-axis d-axis β a-axis b c q-axis i u + f d-axis β i a + u a q-axis f a a i f n b-axis c b c-axis b-axis i b + u b u c + i c c-axis Figure 9.. Definitions of quantities in Park s transformation. This equation can be written on matrix form as i 0dq = i 0 i d i q = 2 3 The matrix T P and matrix T P T P = (T P ) = cos β cos (β 20 ) cos (β + 20 ) sin β sin (β 20 ) sin (β + 20 ) 2 3 can be transposed as 2 cos β sin β 2 cos (β 20 ) sin (β 20 ) 2 cos (β + 20 ) sin (β + 20 ) i a i b i c = T P i abc (9.37) = (T P )t (9.38) The transformation is hence power invariant according to equation (9.3). Park s transformation is real and usable when transforming time quantities. Note that the Park s transformation is linear but the transformation matrix is time dependent. At constant frequency β = ωt + β 0. The Park s transformation is a frequency transformed version of Clarke s transformation. When β = 0 and the q-axis leads the d-axis, the transformation matrices are identical, i.e. T C = T P (β = 0) Phasor components Phasor components are mainly used at instantaneous value analysis when a single machine or when several machines are connected together. The power invariant (T = (T ) t, see

118 2 equation (9.3)) transformation matrix and its inverse for these components are T R = 3 T R = 3 e jθ e jθ α 2 e jθ αe jθ αe jθ α 2 e jθ e jθ αe jθ α 2 e jθ e jθ α 2 e jθ αe jθ (9.39) where α = e j20. The phasor components of the three-phase currents i a (t), i b (t) and i c (t) can be obtained as i 0 (t) i s (t) = i 0sz (t) = T R i abc(t) = i a (t) e jθ αe jθ α 2 e jθ i b (t) (9.40) i z (t) 3 e jθ α 2 e jθ αe jθ i c (t) where i 0 (t) is the zero-sequence component and i s (t) is called the field vector current, the complex phasor of the current. The current i s (t) is complex since the transformation matrix is complex. By assuming that i a (t), i b (t) and i c (t) are real, the expression for i z (t) can be written as i z (t) = e ( jθ i a (t) + α 2 i b (t) + αi c (t) ) = (9.4) 3 = [ 3 e jθ ( i a (t) + αi b (t) + α 2 i c (t) )] = i s(t) i.e. i z (t) is known if the field vector i s (t) is known. Under conditions of no zero-sequence components, the field vector is fully describing an arbitrary real three-phase quantity. For a symmetrical three-phase current as given in equation (9.33), the phasor components can be obtained according to equation (9.40) i 0 (t) = (i a (t) + i b (t) + i c (t)) = 0 3 i s (t) = e jθ ( ia (t) + αi b (t) + α 2 i c (t) ) 3 = 3 2 I Me j(ωt φ θ) (9.42) i z (t) = ejθ ( ia (t) + α 2 i b (t) + αi c (t) ) 3 = 3 2 I Me j(ωt φ θ) = i s(t) Finally, for θ = ωt the following is obtained i 0 (t) = 0 3 i s (t) = 2 I Me jφ (9.43) 3 i z (t) = 2 I Me jφ = i s(t) i.e. the field vector current i s (t) has a constant magnitude, independent of time.

119 3 By assuming real phase currents having no zero-sequence, they can be calculated by using the field vector current as i a (t) i b (t) = T R i 0sz (t) = e jθ e jθ 0 α 2 e jθ αe jθ i s (t) = (9.44) i c (t) 3 αe jθ α 2 e jθ i s(t) [ e = jθ i s (t) ] + [ e jθ i s (t) ] [ α 2 e jθ i s (t) ] + [ α 2 e jθ i s (t) ] 3 [ αe jθ i s (t) ] + [ α 2 e jθ i s (t) ] = 2 Re [ e jθ i s (t) ] Re [ α 2 e jθ i s (t) ] 3 Re [ αe jθ i s (t) ] Phasor components are a frequency transformed form of the symmetrical components. For θ = 0 (phasor components), the transformation matrix for the phasor components and the symmetrical components are identical, i.e. T R (θ = 0) = T S.

Unbalanced current phasors expressed as the sum of positive-, negative-, and zero-sequence components. Based on C. L. Fortesque s theorem, a set of three unbalanced phasors in a three-phase system can be resolved into the following three balanced systems of phasors (or symmetrical components) : A. Positive-sequence components consisting of a balanced system of three phasors with the same amplitude, and having a phase displacement of 20 and 240, respectively. The phase sequence is abca, as shown in Figure 0. b). B. Negative-sequence components consisting of a balanced system of three phasors with the same amplitude, and having a phase displacement of 240 and 20, respectively. The phase sequence is acba, as shown in Figure 0. c). C. Zero-sequence components consisting of a balanced system of three phasors with the same amplitude and phase, as shown in Figure 0. d). 5

122 6 The three balanced systems can be symbolized with (positive-sequence), 2 (negativesequence) and 0 (zero-sequence). The result shown in Figure 0. can be mathematically expressed as : I a = I a + I a2 + I a0 I b = I b + I b2 + I b0 (0.) I c = I c + I c2 + I c0 The three positive-sequence components can be denoted as I b = I a e j20 (0.2) I c = I a e j20 The corresponding expressions for the negative- and zero-sequence components are as I b2 = I a2 e j20 I c2 = I a2 e j20 (0.3) I a0 = I b0 = I c0 By inserting equation (0.2) and (0.3) into equation (0.), the following is obtained I a = I a + I a2 + I a0 I b = α 2 I a + αi a2 + I a0 (0.4) I c = αi a + α 2 I a2 + I a0 where, α = e j20 = cos 20 + j sin 20 = j 2 The following expressions of the symbol α are valid (0.5) α 2 = e j240 = e j20 = 2 j 3 2 α 3 = + α + α 2 = 0 (0.6) α = α 2 (α 2 ) = α Equation (0.4) can, by using matrix form, be written as I ph = TI s (0.7) where the matrix T = α 2 α α α 2 (0.8)

123 7 which is called the transformation matrix for the symmetrical components. This matrix is equal to the reference invariant matrix T S according to equation (9.30). The current vector I ph = I a I b I c represents the current phasor of each phase whereas I s = I a I a2 I a0 or just I s = represents the symmetrical components of the phase currents. (0.9) I I 2 I 0 (0.0) By using equation (0.7), the symmetrical components as a function of the phase currents can be obtained : I s = T I ph (0.) where T = 3 α α 2 α 2 α (0.2) which is equal to T S according to equation (9.30). Of course, the symmetrical components can also be applied to voltages. Using the vectors U ph = U a U b U c and U s = U a U a2 U a0 or just U s = U U 2 U 0 (0.3) for representing line-to-neutral voltage phasors and symmetrical components, respectively, the relation between them can be written as U ph = TU s (0.4) U s = T U ph (0.5) Example 0. Calculate the symmetrical components for the following symmetrical voltages U ph = U a U b U c = V (0.6) Solution By using equation (0.2) and (0.5), the symmetrical components of the voltage U ph can

124 8 be calculated as U U 2 = U s = T U ph = 3 U 0 = = 0 0 α α 2 α 2 α U a U b U c = (0.7) As given in the example, a symmetric three-phase system with a phase sequence of abc gives rise to a positive-sequence voltage only, having the same amplitude and angle as the voltage in phase a. Example 0.2 For a Y-connected three-phase load with zero conductor, phase b is at one occasion disconnected. The load currents at that occasion is : I a 0 0 I ph = I b = 0 A (0.8) I c Calculate the symmetrical components of the load current as well as the current in the zero conductor, I n. Solution I I 2 I 0 = 3 = = = (0.9) I n = I a + I b + I c = = 0 60 = 3I 0 (0.20) As given in the example, the current in the zero conductor is three times as large as the zero-sequence current. 0.2 Power calculations under unbalanced conditions Based on the voltage and current phasors of each phase, the three-phase complex power can be calculated as S = P + jq = U a I a + U b I b + U c I c = U t p h I p h (0.2)

125 9 By introducing symmetrical components, the expression above can be converted to The expression T t T can be written as α 2 α T t T = α α 2 S = U t p h I p h = (TU s ) t (TI s ) = U t st t T I s (0.22) α α 2 α 2 α = (0.23) i.e. the transformation is not power invariant, see subsection 9.., equation (9.2). Equation (0.22) can be rewritten as S = 3 U t s I s = 3 U I + 3 U 2 I U 0 I 0 (0.24) Since the magnitude of the line-to-line voltages are 3 times the line-to-neutral voltages and S b = 3 U b I b, the introduction of the per-unit system gives that equation (0.24) can be rewritten as S pu = 3( 3Us ) t I s 3 Ub I b = U pu I pu + U pu 2 I pu 2 + U pu 0 I pu 0 p.u (0.25) This implies that the total power (in per-unit value) in an unbalanced system can be expressed by the sum of the symmetrical components of power. The total power in physical unit can be obtained by multiplying S pu with S b, i.e. S = S pu S b = U pu I pu S b + U pu 2 I pu 2 S b + U pu 0 I pu 0 S b MVA (0.26)

Series impedance of single-phase overhead line The theory of having an overhead line using the ground as a return conductor was discussed by Carson in 923. Carson considered a single conductor a of unity length (e.g. one meter) running in parallel with the ground, see Figure.. ad Z Figure.. Carson s single-phase overhead line using the ground as return path The current I a flows in the conductor using the ground between d d as return path. The ground is assumed to have an uniform resistance and an infinite extension. The current I d (= I a ) is distributed over a large area, flowing along the ways of least resistance. Kirchhoff s law about the same voltage drop along each path is fulfilled. It has been shown that these distributed return paths may, in the analysis, be replaced by a single return conductor having a radius = r d located at a distance D ad from the overhead line according to Figure.. The distance D ad is a function of the resistivity of the ground ρ. The distance D ad increases as the resistivity ρ increases. The inductance of this circuit can be calculated as L a = µ 2π ln D a } {{ } L aa + µ 2π ln D d } {{ } L dd 2 µ 2π ln D } {{ ad} L ad = µ ( ln D ad + ln D ) ad 2π D a D d (.) where µ = the permeability of the conductor D a = e /4 r a for a single conductor with radius r a D d = e /4 r d for a return conductor in ground with radius r d The inductance can according to equation (.) be divided into three parts, two apparent self inductances (L aa, L dd ) and one apparent mutual inductance (L ad ). Note that these quantities 2

128 22 are only mathematical quantities without any physical meaning. For instance, they have wrong dimension inside the ln-sign. It is only after the summation they achieve a physical meaning. Hopefully, the different part expressions will simplify the understanding of the behavior of a three-phase line. The total series reactance of this single-phase conductor is X a = ωl a = ω(l aa + L dd 2L ad ) (.2) By using this line model, having apparent inductances, the voltage drop for a single-phase line can be calculated as [ ] [ ] [ ] [ ] U aa U = a U a zaa z = ad Ia V/length unit (.3) U dd U d U d z ad z dd I a where U a, U a, U d and U d are given in proportion to the same reference. Since U d = 0 and U a U d = 0, U a can be obtained by subtracting the two equations from each other : By definition The impedances in this equation can be calculated as where U a = (z aa + z dd 2z ad )I a = Z a I a (.4) Z a z aa + z dd 2z ad Ω/length unit (.5) z aa = r a + jx aa = r a + jωl aa Ω/length unit z dd = r d + jx dd = r d + jωl dd Ω/length unit (.6) z ad = jx ad = jωl ad Ω/length unit Z a = r a + r d + jx a Ω/length unit r a = conductor resistance per length unit r d = ground resistance per length unit.2 Series impedance of a three-phase overhead line In order to obtain the series impedance of a three-phase line, the calculations are performed in the same way as for the single-phase line. In Figure.2, the impedances, voltages and currents of the line are given. Since all conductors are grounded at a, b, c, the following are valid U a U d = 0, U b U d = 0, U c U d = 0 I d = (I a + I b + I c ) The voltage drop over the conductors can be calculated as U aa U a U a z aa z ab z ac z ad U bb U cc = U b U b U c U c = z ab z bb z bc z bd z ac z bc z cc z cd U dd U d U d z ad z bd z cd z dd I a I b I c I d (.7) V/length unit (.8)

Three-phase overhead line with ground as return path In the same way as for the single-phase conductor, the impedances in equation (.8) are apparent without any physical relevance. With U d = 0 and by using equation (.7), row four can be subtracted from row one in equation (.8) which gives U a (U a U d ) = (z aa 2z ad + z dd )I a + (z ab z ad z bd + z dd )I b + + (z ac z ad z cd + z dd )I c (.9) This can be simplified to U a = Z aa I a + Z ab I b + Z ac I c. The impedances Z aa, Z ab and Z ac are defined below. Note that when I b = I c = 0, the impedance Z aa is exactly the impedance of a single-phase line using the ground as return path as described in section.. If the calculations above are repeated for the phases b and c, the following can be obtained where U a U b U c = Z aa Z ab Z ac Z ab Z bb Z bc Z ac Z bc Z cc I a I b I c Z aa = z aa 2z ad + z dd Ω/length unit Z bb = z bb 2z bd + z dd Ω/length unit V/length unit (.0) Z cc = z cc 2z cd + z dd Ω/length unit (.) Z ab = Z ba = z ab z ad z bd + z dd Ω/length unit Z bc = Z cb = z bc z bd z cd + z dd Ω/length unit Z ac = Z ca = z ac z ad z cd + z dd Ω/length unit The magnitude of the impedances can be calculated as the impedances in section., equation (.) and.6. It is important to note the coupling between the phases. A current flowing in one phase will influence the voltage drop in other phases. The replacing of a three-phase line with three parallel impedances, is an approximation which gives that all

130 24 non-diagonal element of the Z-bus matrix in equation (.0) are neglected. In other words, the mutual inductance between the conductors are neglected. The error this simplification gives is dependent on several things, e.g. the distance between the conductors, the length of the conductors and the magnitude of the currents in the conductors..2. Symmetrical components of the series impedance of a threephase line Symmetrical components are often used in the analysis of power systems having three-phase lines, in order to simplify the complicated cross-couplings that exist between the phases. The quantities in equation (.0) can be defined as : U a U b U c = U ph = Z ph I ph = Z aa Z ab Z ac Z ab Z bb Z bc Z ac Z bc Z cc I a I b I c (.2) The voltage vector (U ph ) and current vector (I ph ) can be replaced by the corresponding symmetrical component multiplied with matrix T according to the section on symmetrical components : U ph = TU s = Z ph TI s = Z ph I ph (.3) This equation can be rewritten as Z s = T Z ph T = 3 U s = T Z ph TI s = Z s I s (.4) If a symmetrical overhead line (or cable) is assumed, i.e. Z aa = Z bb = Z cc and Z ab = Z bc = Z ac, the following is obtained α α 2 Z aa Z ab Z ac α 2 α Z ab Z bb Z bc α 2 α = Z ac Z bc Z cc α α 2 = Z aa Z ab Z aa Z ab Z aa + 2Z ab (.5) Equation (.4) can be rewritten as U U 2 = U s = Z s I s = (.6) where = U 0 Z aa Z ab Z aa Z ab Z aa + 2Z ab I I 2 I 0 = Z = Z aa Z ab = positive-sequence impedance Z I Z 2 I 2 Z 0 I 0 Z 2 = Z aa Z ab = negative-sequence impedance (.7) Z 0 = Z aa + 2Z ab = zero-sequence impedance

131 25 By inserting the expressions used in equation (.) into equation (.7), the following can be obtained Z = Z 2 = z aa z ab (.8) Z 0 = z aa + 2z ab 6z ad + 3z dd Note that the coupling to ground are not present in the expressions for the positive- and negative-sequence impedances, i.e. the elements having index d in the Z-bus matrix in equation (.8) are not included. This means that the zero-sequence current is zero in the positive- and negative-sequence reference frame, which is quite logical. All couplings to ground are represented in the zero-sequence impedance. As indicated above, a line by using this model, can be represented as three non-coupled components : positive-, negative-, and zero-sequence components. It should be pointed out that some loss of information will occur when using this model. For example, if only positive-, negative-, and zero-sequence data are given, the potential of the ground, U d in Figure.2, cannot be calculated. To calculate that potential, more detailed data are needed. The line model introduced in section 7..2, is based on positive-sequence data only, since symmetrical conditions are assumed..2.2 Equivalent diagram of the series impedance of a line As given above, for a symmetrical line Z = Z 2. Assume that this line can be replaced by an equivalent circuit according to Figure.3, i.e. three phase impedances Z α and one return U a U b U c U 0 I a I b I c I0 Z α Z α Z α Z β U a U b U c U 0 Figure.3. Equivalent diagram of the series impedance of a line impedance Z β where the mutual inductance between the phases is assumed zero. With three phases and one return path, as given by the equivalent in Figure.3, the following is valid I 0 = I a + I b + I c (.9) By using equation (.9), the voltage drop between the phases and the return conductor can be calculated as U a U 0 = U a U 0 I a Z α (I a + I b + I c )Z β U b U 0 = U b U 0 I b Z α (I a + I b + I c )Z β (.20) U c U 0 = U c U 0 I c Z α (I a + I b + I c )Z β

132 26 which can be rewritten to matrix form U a U 0 U a U 0 U b U 0 = U b U 0 U c U U 0 c U 0 Z α + Z β Z β Z β Z β Z α + Z β Z β Z β Z β Z α + Z β I a I b I c (.2) or U p h = U ph Z αβ I ph (.22) Since the matrix Z αβ is both symmetric and cyclo-symmetric, it can represent a line according to the assumption made. The matrix Z αβ can be converted to symmetrical components by using equation (.5) : Z sαβ = T Z αβ T = Z α Z α Z α + 3Z β (.23) When the symmetrical components Z = Z 2 and Z 0 for the line are known, the following is obtained Z α = Z Z β = Z 0 Z (.24) 3 With these values of Z α and Z β, the equivalent in Figure.3 can be used, together with equation (.2), to calculate the voltage drop between the phases and the return conductor (= U ph U p h ) as a function of the phase currents (= I ph ). Note that the equivalent cannot be used to calculate e.g. U 0 U 0 or U a U a but only e.g. (U a U 0) (U a U 0 ). Example. Solve example 3.5 by using symmetrical components. U a U b U c I a I b I c Z L Z L Z L U a U b U c Z a Z b Z c U 0 I 0 Z L0 U 0 Figure.4. Network diagram for example. Solution According to the solutions in example 3.5, the impedances of interest are Z L = j0.6 Ω, Z L0 = j0.03 Ω, Z a = j4.8 Ω, Z b = j.60 Ω, Z c = j2.40 Ω.

133 27 The symmetrical components of the line will first be calculated. Note that the line in the example is given in the same way as the equivalent. The symmetrical components can be calculated by using equation (.23) : Z = Z 2 = Z L = j0.6 Ω Z 0 = Z L + 3Z L0 = j0.25 Ω (.25) which gives that Z 0 0 Z s = 0 Z 2 0 = 0 0 Z j j j0.25 (.26) The symmetrical components for the load can be calculated by using equation (.5) Z LDs = 3 = α α 2 α 2 α Z a Z b Z c α 2 α α α j j j j j j j j j2.94 = Ω (.27) The applied voltage is symmetric, i.e. it has only one sequence, the positive one : U s = T U ph = 0 0 V (.28) The equation for this un-symmetric three-phase network can be described as U s = (Z s + Z LDs )I s (.29) which can be rewritten as I s = (Z s + Z LDs ) U s = A (.30) The symmetrical components for the voltage at the load can be calculated as U LDs = Z LDs I s = V (.3) The power obtained in the radiators can be calculated by using equation (0.24) S = 3U t LDsI s = j477 VA (.32) i.e. the thermal power is 4754 W.

134 28 As given above, only the voltage drop at the load and the load currents can be calculated by using the symmetrical components. The ground potential at the load cannot be calculated, but that is usually of no interest. Previously, in example 3.5, 5. and 5.2, the ground potential at the load has been calculated by using other types of circuit analyses. It should be pointed out that the value of the ground potential has no physical interpretation if the value of Z L and Z L0 has been obtained by using the symmetrical components of the line according to equation (.24). As given by the solutions, the load demand, phase voltages at the load and the currents at the load are physically correct by using either one of the four methods of solution..3 Shunt capacitance of a three-phase line The line resistance and inductance are components that together form the series impedance of the line. The capacitance that is of interest in this section, forms the shunt component. The series component, usually the inductance, gives a limit on the maximum amount of the current that can be transmitted over the line, and by that also the maximum power limit. The capacitive shunt component behaves as a reactive power source. The reactive power generated, is proportional to the voltage squared, which implies that the importance of the shunt capacitance increases with the voltage level. For lines having a nominal voltage of kv and a length of more than 200 km, these capacitances are of great importance. In high voltage cables where the conductors are more close to one another, the capacitance is up to times larger than for overhead lines. The reactive power generation can be a problem in cables having a length of only 0 km. There is a fundamental law about electric fields saying that the electric potential v at a certain point on the distance r from a point charge q, can be calculated as : v = q 4πɛ 0 r V (.33) where ɛ 0 = F/m, permittivity of vacuum. This law gives that there is a direct relationship between the difference in potential and accumulation of charges. If two long, parallel conductors are of interest, and if there is a voltage difference, v v 2, between the lines, an accumulation of charges with different sign, +Q and Q, will take place. The magnitude of the total charge Q depends mainly on the distance between the lines but also on the design of the lines. For cables, the material between the conductors will also have an influence on the charge accumulation. The capacitance between the two conductors is equal to the quotient between the charge Q and the difference in potential : C Q v v 2 (.34) For a three-phase line, the corresponding capacitance is located between all conductors. When having a difference in potential between a conductor and ground, an accumulation of charges will also occur in relation to the magnitude of the capacitance. In Figure.5, the different capacitances of a three-phase overhead line are given. A line is normally constructed

135 29 b a c ab c ac c bc c cag cbg ccg Figure.5. Capacitances of a three-phase overhead line without earth wires in a symmetrical way, i.e. the mean distance between the phases are equal. Also, the mean distance between a phase and ground is the same for all phases. In Figure.5, this corresponds to the case that c ab = c bc = c ac and c ag = c bg = c cg when the entire line is of interest. In the same way as given earlier for the series impedances, the positive-, negative- and zero-sequence capacitances can be calculated. Only the results from the calculations will be presented here. where, according to Figure.6 C = C 2 = C 0 = 2πɛ 0 ln [ ] 2Ha Ar F/m (.35) 2πɛ 0 ln [ ] 2HA 2 ra 2 F/m (.36) C = positive-sequence capacitance C 2 = negative-sequence capacitance C 0 = zero-sequence capacitance H = 3 H H 2 H 3 A = 3 A A 2 A 3 a = 3 a 2 a 3 a 23 r = the equivalent radius of the line = e /4 real radius of the line Note that C is equal to C 2, but C 0 has a different value. When having a closer look at the equations for C, it can be seen that 2H/A according to Figure.6, which means that the distance to ground has a relatively small influence. If the conductors are located close to one another, then 2H = A. The line model described in section 7..2, uses only the positive-sequence capacitance C for the line. In principle, this can be regarded as a -Y-transformation of the capacitances between the phases since they are the main contributors to the positive- and negative-sequence capacitances. The coupling to ground is of less importance. In cables, the positive- and negative-sequence capacitances are usually higher owing to the short distance between the phases.

When calculating C 0, all phases have the same potential by the definition of zero-sequence. This implies that the capacitances between the phases c ab, c bc, c ac are not of interest. However, the electric field is changed since all three conductors have the same potential. As given in the equation, the distance to ground is very important (power of three inside the ln-sign) in the calculations of the zero-sequence capacitance.

137 Chapter 2 Sequence circuits of transformers In the analysis of three-phase circuits under unbalanced conditions, the transformer is represented by its positive-, negative- and zero-sequence impedances. These can be determined by analyzing the three-phase transformer, e.g. the Y0- connected shown in Figure 2.. a I a Z e A n Zn In b I b Z e C c I c Z e B Figure 2.. Y0- connected transformer with neutral point grounded through an impedance Z n. The impedance Z e represents the equivalent impedance of each phase and consists of both leakage reactance of the primary and secondary windings as well as the resistance of the windings, i.e. the windings shown in the figure are considered as ideal windings. The magnetizing current of the transformer can be neglected, i.e. the magnetizing impedance is assumed to be infinitely large. By using the direction of currents as shown in Figure 2., the following expressions for the three phases of the transformer can be held U a = I a Z e + I n Z n U b = I b Z e + I n Z n (2.) U c = I c Z e + I n Z n Since I n = I a + I b + I c, this can be rewritten as U a = I a ( Ze + Z n ) + Ib Z n + I c Z n U b = I a Z n + I b ( Ze + Z n ) + Ic Z n (2.2) U c = I a Z n + I b Z n + I c ( Ze + Z n ) which can be written on matrix form U a Z e + Z n Z n Z n U = U b = Z n Z e + Z n Z n U c Z n Z n Z e + Z n 3 I a I b I c = Z tr I ph (2.3)

138 32 By diagonalizing the matrix Z tr, the symmetrical components of the transformer can be obtained as the eigenvalues of Z tr Z e 0 0 Z trs = T Z tr T = 0 Z e 0 (2.4) 0 0 Z e + 3Z n i.e. Z t = Z e = positive-sequence impedance Z t 2 = Z e = negative-sequence impedance (2.5) Z t 0 = Z e + 3Z n = zero-sequence impedance As given above, the positive- and negative-sequence impedances are the same and equal to the leakage reactance of each phase. That Z = Z 2 is not surprising since the transformer impedance does not change if the phase ordering is changed from abc (positive-sequence) to acb (negative-sequence). The zero-sequence impedance includes the leakage reactance but a factor of 3Z n is added where Z n is the impedance connected between the transformer neutral and the ground. If Z n = 0, the zero-sequence impedance will be equal to the leakage reactance of the transformer. Note that to obtain a zero-sequence current, it must be a connection between the transformer neutral and the ground. Figure 2.2 shows the zero-sequence equivalent circuits of transformers with different winding connections. In the figure, P stands for Primary side and S for Secondary side of transformer. For the transformer shown in Figure 2., the neutral of the primary side (P) is grounded, It should be pointed out that this analysis of the zero-sequence impedance is dependent on the Y0- connected according to Figure 2.. To obtain a zero-sequence current, it must be a connection between the transformer neutral and the ground. On the secondary side, the -connected side in Figure 2., there is no such connection, i.e. seen from the secondary side, Z t 0 = and a zero-sequence current cannot flow. Whereas the positive- and negative-sequence impedances of the transformer are independent on from which side of the transformer the analysis is performed, the zero-sequence impedance can vary with a large amount. Figure 2.2 a) shows a Y0-Y0 connected through which a zero-sequence current can flow. This gives that the zero-sequence impedance is equal to the leakage reactance as discussed above. However, Figure 2.2 b)-c) show a Y-Y connected and a Y0-Y connected through which a zero-sequence current cannot flow. Figure 2.2 d) shows a Y0- connected which is allows a zero-sequence current to flow only on the Y0-side since a return conductor exists and mmf-balance can be obtained owing to the -winding. On the -side, no zero-sequence current can flow. In Figure 2.2 e) f), no zero-sequence current can flow on either side due to the connection types.

141 Chapter 3 Analysis of unbalanced three-phase systems As discussed in chapters and 2, lines and transformers can be represented by their positive-, negative- and zero-sequence impedances. These sequences are decoupled which implies that for instance a certain zero-sequence current will only cause a zero-sequence voltage drop whereas positive- and negative-sequence voltages will be unchanged. Also threephase generators can in an equivalent way be described by decoupled positive-, negative- and zero-sequence systems. This property implies that the entire system including generators, lines and transformers can be represented by three decoupled systems. 3. Symmetrical components of impedance loads A three-phase impedance load is normally Y - or -connected as shown in Figure 3.. I a Z a I a U a U a U b I b Z b Ia + Ib + Ic Ub I b Z ab Zac I c Z c Z n I c Z bc U c U c a) Y0-connected load b) -connected load Figure 3.. Two possible load configurations The neutral of a Y -connected load may be grounded with or without an impedance. Then it is termed Y0-connected. For the Y 0-connected load shown in Figure 3. a), we have: U ph = U a U b U c = Z a + Z n Z n Z n Z n Z b + Z n Z n Z n Z n Z c + Z n I a I b I c = Z LDph I ph (3.) This equation can be transformed to symmetrical components as follows: U ph = TU s = Z LDph I ph = Z LDph T I s U s = T Z LDph T I s = Z LDs I s (3.2) 35

142 36 where Z LDs T Z LDph T = (3.3) = Z a + Z b + Z c Z a + α 2 Z b + αz c Z a + αz b + α 2 Z c Z a + αz b + α 2 Z c Z a + Z b + Z c Z a + α 2 Z b + αz c 3 Z a + α 2 Z b + αz c Z a + αz b + α 2 Z c Z a + Z b + Z c + 9Z n As indicated in this matrix, there are non-diagonal elements that are nonzero, i.e. there exists couplings between the positive-, negative- and zero-sequences. A special case is when Z a = Z b = Z c. In this special case, Z LDs can be written as Z LDs = Z a Z a Z a + 3Z n (3.4) For a symmetric Y 0-connected load Z LD = Z LD 2 = Z a and Z LD 0 = Z a + 3Z n. If Z n = 0 then Z LD = Z LD 2 = Z LD 0. However, if the neutral of the load is not grounded, i.e a Y -connected load, then Z n = = Z LD 0 which means that no zero-sequence current can flow. For the -connected load shown in Figure 3. b), the impedance can first be -Y transformed which results in a Y -connected load: Z a = Z b = Z ab Z ac Z ab + Z ac + Z bc (3.5) Z ab Z bc Z ab + Z ac + Z bc (3.6) Z c = Z ac Z bc Z ab + Z ac + Z bc (3.7) Z n = (3.8) For a symmetric -connected load, i.e. Z ab = Z bc = Z ac, the symmetrical components can be calculated by using equations (3.4) to (3.8) : Z LD = Z ab /3 (3.9) Z LD 2 = Z ab /3 (3.0) Z LD 0 = (3.) 3.2 Connection to a system under unbalanced conditions In subsection 7..3, the connection to a network under symmetrical (or balanced) conditions was discussed. It has been shown that by applying the Thévenin theorem the entire linear balanced system (as seen from a selected point) can be represented by a voltage source

143 37 behind an impedance. The value of the impedance can be calculated when knowing the three-phase short circuit current at the selected point. A balanced power system as seen from a selected point p can be described by three decoupled single-line sequence systems (or networks) termed as positive-, negative and zerosequence systems. The model of the positive-sequence system is indeed the single-line system of a balanced three-phase system that has been studied from Chapter 6 to Chapter 8, i.e. in these chapters we have studied the positive-sequence system of a balanced three-phase system. Assuming a linear balanced three-phase power system, the sequence systems can be represented by their Thévenin equivalents as shown in Figure 3.2. Note that there are no voltage sources in the network for the negative- and zero-sequence systems. Thus, the negative- and zero-sequence systems only consist of impedances.

Thévenin equivalents as seen from a selected point p in the system. From Figure 3.2, the following can be obtained in p.u: U p = U T hp Z T hp I p U p 2 = 0 Z T hp 2 I p 2 (3.2) U p 0 = 0 Z T hp 0 I p Single line-to-ground fault Assume that a single line-to-ground through an impedance Z f system, as shown in Figure 3.3. occurs at a point p in the Based on equation equation (0.) the following is obtained: I p I s = I p 2 = α α 2 α 2 α I fa 0 = 3 3 I p 0 0 I fa I fa I fa I p = I p 2 = I p 0 = 3 I fa (3.3) From Figure 3.3, we have U pa = Z f I fa.

Single-phase short circuit in phase a Using the first row in equation (0.4) and equations (3.2)-(3.3), the following is obtained in p.u: U pa = U p + U p 2 + U p 0 = Z f I fa = 3Z f I p U pa = U T hp Z T hp I p Z T hp 2 I p Z T hp 0 I p = 3Z f I p p.u (3.4) Thus, I fa = 3 I p = 3 U T hp Z T hp + Z T hp 2 + Z T hp Z f p.u (3.5) If the quantities are expressed in their physical units (i.e. kv, ka and Ω), then U pa = U T hp 3 Z T hp I p Z T hp 2 I p Z T hp 0 I p = 3Z f I p I fa = 3 I p = 3 U T hp 3 Z T hp + Z T hp 2 + Z T hp Z f ka kv (3.6) If the equivalent diagram of a line shown in Figure.3 is used, and if U a in the figure is connected to U 0 through an impedance Z f, then by virtue of equation (.24) the current I a can be obtained as I a = U a U 0 Z α + Z β + Z f = U a U 0 = Z + Z 0 Z + Z 3 f 3(U a U 0 ) 2Z + Z 0 + 3Z f (3.7) which is similar to equation (3.6). To calculate the current of a single line-to ground fault, the equivalent in Figure.3 can be used if Z T hp = Z T hp 2. Example 3. At a 400 kv bus, a solid three-phase short circuit occurs, giving a fault current of 20 ka per phase. If a solid single line-to-ground fault occurs at the same bus, the fault current will be 5 ka in the faulted phase. The Thévenin impedances in the positive- and

145 39 negative-sequence systems at the bus can be assumed to be purely reactive and equal. (This is normal for high voltage systems since the dominating impedances origin from lines and transformers which have dominating reactive characteristics, equal for positive- and negativesequences). Also the zero-sequence impedance can be assumed to be purely reactive. Calculate the Thévenin equivalents for the positive-, negative- and zero-sequences at the fault. Solution Solid short circuits means that Z f = 0. Since all impedances are purely inductive, the fault currents will also be inductive, i.e. Three-phase fault : Based on equation (7.25), I sc3φ = j20 ka I scφ = j5 ka (3.8) Z T h = Z T h 2 = U T h 3 Isc3Φ = ( j20) = j.55 Ω (3.9) Single-phase fault : From equation (3.6), Z T h 0 = 3 U T h 3 IscΦ Z T h Z T h 2 3 Z f = ( j5) 2 (j.55) = j23.09 Ω (3.20) 3.4 Analysis of a linear three-phase system with one unbalanced load As discussed in section 3., the three sequence systems are decoupled when having a balanced system. However, in the case having unsymmetrical loads, these three sequence systems will not be decoupled. Assume a linear power system with an unbalanced load. The system is composed of a voltage source, lines and transformers. This system can be analyzed as follows:. Draw the impedance diagrams of the positive-, negative and zero-sequence systems, for the entire network excluding the unbalanced load. 2. Find the Thévenin equivalents of the positive-, negative- and zero-sequence systems as seen from the point the unsymmetrical load is located. 3. Calculate the positive-, negative- and zero-sequence currents through the unbalanced load. 4. Calculate the positive-, negative- and zero-sequence voltages at the points of interest.

146 40 5. Calculate the positive-, negative- and zero-sequence currents through components that are of interest. 6. Transform those symmetrical components to the phase quantities that are asked for. The items above can be treated in different ways which will be shown in the following example. Example 3.2 Consider again the system described in Example 7.2. The following additional data is also given: Transformer is -Y0 connected with Y 0 on the 0 kv-side, and Z n = 0. The zero-sequence impedance of the line is 3 times the positive-sequence impedance, i.e. Z 2 0 = 3 Z 2. The zero-sequence shunt admittance of the line is 0.5 times the positive-sequence shunt admittance, i.e. y sh 2 0 = 0.5 y sh 2. When the transformer is disconnected from bus 3, a solid (i.e. Z f = 0) single line-toground applied to this bus results in a pure inductive fault current of 0.2 ka. The positive- and negative-sequence Thévenin impedances of the power system are identical, i.e. Z T h = Z T h 2. The load is Y0-connected with Z n = 0. Furthermore, half of the normal load connected to phase a is disconnected while the other phases are loaded as normal, i.e. it is an unsymmetrical load. Calculate the voltage at the industry as well as the power fed by the transformer into the line. Solution ) Start with the building of the impedance diagram of the positive-, negative- and zerosequence for the whole system excluding the unsymmetrical load, see Figure 3.4. Positive- and negative-sequence components in per-unit values (from the solution to Example 7.2):

148 42 Zero-sequence components in per-unit values: I scφ = = I b = Z T h 0 = 3 U T h I scφ 2 Z T h 0 = j Z t 0 = Z t = j 0.004, since Z n = 0 Z 2 0 = 3 Z 2 = j y sh 2 0 = 0.5 y sh 2 = j A L 0 = + y sh 2 0 Z 2 0 = j B L 0 = Z 2 0 = j C L 0 = y sh 2 0 (2 + y sh 2 0 Z 2 0 ) = j D L 0 = A L 0 = j (3.22) 2) Next step is to replace the networks with Thévenin equivalents as seen from the industry connection point (bus ), i.e. U T hbus, Z T hbus, Z T hbus 2 and Z T hbus 0, see Figure 3.2. The twoport of the entire positive-sequence network between bus 4 (which represents the voltage source) and bus (the industry connection point) is given by (see also Example 7.2): [ U T h I bus4 ] = = [ ] [ ] A B U bus = (3.23) C D I bus [ ] [ ] j j U bus j j I bus Based on Figure 3.2 a), U T hbus is obtained by setting I bus = 0 as follows: U T h = A U T hbus + B 0 U T hbus = U T h A = (3.24) The Thévenin impedance Z T hbus is obtained by setting U T h = 0 as follows: 0 = A U bus + B I bus Z T hbus = U bus I bus = B A = j (3.25) To set U T h = 0, it means that bus 4 is short circuited. Therefore in this case, the positive-sequence system will have a configuration similar to the negative-sequence system as shown in Figure 3.2 b). Furthermore, since Z t = Z t 2, Z 2 = Z 2 2 and y sh 2 = y sh 2 2, they imply that A = A 2 and B = B 2. Thus, in a similar

149 43 way as shown in equation (3.25), the Thévenin impedance Z T hbus 2 is obtained as follows: 0 = A 2 U bus 2 + B 2 I bus 2 Z T hbus 2 = U bus 2 I bus 2 = B 2 A 2 = B A = Z T hbus = j (3.26) Based on Figure 2.2 d), the zero-sequence of a -Y0-transformer should be modeled as an impedance to ground on the Y 0-side, as shown in Figure 3.4 c). As seen in the figure, the feeding network (i.e. power system) is not connected to the industry load from a zero-sequence point of view. The twoport of the network from the transformer (bus 3) to the connection point of the industry (bus ) is given by [ ] [ ] [ ] [ ] [ ] U bus3 0 0 Zt 0 AL 0 B = = L 0 U bus 0 = I bus3 0 I bus3 0 0 C L 0 D L 0 I bus 0 [ ] [ ] A 0 B = 0 U bus 0 = (3.27) C 0 D 0 I bus 0 [ ] [ ] j j U = bus j j0.000 The Thévenin impedance Z T hbus 0 is obtained as follows: I bus 0 0 = A 0 U bus 0 + B 0 I bus 0 Z T hbus 0 = U bus 0 I bus 0 = B 0 A 0 = j (3.28) 3) From Example 7.2 the the per-unit value of the load (i.e. Z LD ) is known. At the half load in phase a (i.e. Z LDa = 2Z LD ), the impedance matrix of the symmetrical components is calculated based on equation (3.3) : Z LDs = T Z LDph T = T = 2Z LD Z LD Z LD T j j j j j j j j j (3.29) The equation of the entire system is now given by U Th = U T hbus 0 = (Z s + Z LDs ) I s (3.30) 0 where Z s = Z T hbus Z T hbus Z T hbus 0 and I s = I bus I bus 2 I bus 0

150 44 The symmetrical components of the currents through the load can be calculated as: I s = (Z s + Z LDs ) U Th = (3.3) ) The symmetrical components of the voltage at the industry (bus ) are given by U bus U buss = U bus 2 = Z LDs I s = (3.32) U bus The positive-, negative- and zero-sequence voltages and currents (in per-unit values) at the transformer connection to the line (bus 2) are given by [ ] [ ] [ ] [ ] U bus2 AL B = L U bus = I bus2 C L D L I bus [ ] [ ] [ ] [ ] U bus2 2 AL 2 B = L 2 U bus = I bus2 2 C L 2 D L 2 I bus (3.33) [ ] [ ] [ ] [ ] U bus2 0 AL 0 B = L 0 U bus = I bus2 0 C L 0 D L 0 I bus 0 The symmetrical components of power (in physical units) fed by the transformer into the line can be expressed by S bus2 = U bus2 I bus2 S b = j MVA S bus2 2 = U bus2 2 I bus2 2 S b = 0 j MVA S bus2 0 = U bus2 0 I bus2 0 S b = 0 j MVA (3.34) 6) Based on equation (0.4), the line-to-neutral voltages can be obtained. To express these quantities in physical units, they must be multiplied with the corresponding base voltage, then divided by 3, since the base voltage is based on line-to-line voltage. Thus, U busa U busb U busc = T U buss Ub0 3 = (3.35) Based on equation (0.26), the total power fed by the transformer into the line is given by S = S bus2 + S bus2 2 + S bus2 0 = j MVA (3.36) 3.5 A general method for analysis of linear threephase systems with one unbalanced load In larger unsymmetrical systems, it is necessary to use a systematic approach to analyze system voltages and currents. In this section, all system components except one load, are

151 45 symmetrical. In the demonstration below, a small system is analyzed in the same way as can be performed for a large system. The example given below is identical to the one in section 7.2 but with the difference that the load which will be connected to bus 2 is assumed unbalanced. The voltage source is represented by bus 3. All quantities are expressed in per-unit values. Consider the simple balanced system shown in Figure 3.5. For a balanced system, all system quantities and components can be represented only by their positive-sequence components. The only difference between this system and the system studied in section 7.2 is that here we use index - which has been omitted in section 7.2. ~ I 3 bus3 Z t 2 Z2 Ibus2 bus I ZLD Figure 3.5. Impedance diagram of a symmetrical system The Y-bus matrix of the positive-sequence system is identical with Y in in section 7.2, i.e. I bus I bus2 I bus3 = I = Y U = = + 0 Z LD Z 2 Z 2 Z 2 Z 2 + Z t Z t 0 Z t Z t U bus U bus2 U bus3 This Y-bus matrix can be inverted which results in the corresponding Z-bus matrix : (3.37) U = Y I = Z I (3.38) Since I bus = I bus2 = 0, the third row in equation (3.38) can be written as U bus3 = Z (3, 3) I bus3 I bus3 = U bus3 Z (3, 3) (3.39) where Z (3, 3) is an element in the Z-bus matrix. With this value of the current inserted into equation (3.38) all voltages are obtained. U bus = Z (, 3) I bus3 (3.40) U bus2 = Z (2, 3) I bus3 (3.4)

152 46 So far, all calculations are identical to those in section 7.2. Corresponding calculations can be performed for an arbitrary large system having impedance loads and one voltage source. Assume a system with a voltage source at bus i. The current at bus i and the voltage at another bus r can then be calculated as: I busi = U busi Z (i, i) (3.42) U busr = U T hbusr = Z (r, i) I busi (3.43) Now assume that an unsymmetrical impedance load is connected to bus 2 which apparently leads to the changes of the system voltages and currents. The actual voltages can be obtained by using the theorem of superposition, i.e. as the sum of the voltages before the connection of the load and with the voltage change obtained by the load connection. This can be expressed by using symmetrical components as: U = U pre + U U 2 = U pre2 + U 2 (3.44) U 0 = U pre0 + U 0 where, (below with all buses it means all buses in the system excluding the bus connected to the voltage source) U is a vector containing the positive-sequence voltages at all buses (i.e. bus and bus 2 in this example) due to the connection of the unsymmetrical load. U 2 U 0 is a vector containing the negative-sequence voltages at all buses due to the connection of the unsymmetrical load. is a vector containing the zero-sequence voltages at all buses due to the connection of the unsymmetrical load. U pre U pre2 U pre0 U U 2 U 0 is a vector containing the positive-sequence voltages at all buses prior to the connection of the unsymmetrical load. is a vector containing the negative-sequence voltages at all buses prior to the connection of the unsymmetrical load. All elements of this vector are zero, since the system is under balanced conditions prior to the connection of the unsymmetrical load. is a vector containing the zero-sequence voltages at all buses prior to the connection of the unsymmetrical load. All elements of this vector are zero, since the system is under balanced conditions prior to the connection of the unsymmetrical load. is a vector containing the changes in the positive-sequence voltages at all buses due to the connection of the unsymmetrical load. is a vector containing the changes in the negative-sequence voltages at all buses due to the connection of the unsymmetrical load. is a vector containing the changes in the zero-sequence voltages at all buses due to the connection of the unsymmetrical load.

153 47 Equation (3.44) can be rewritten by expressing the voltage changes by a Z-bus matrix multiplied with the current changes injected into the buses as follows: U = U pre + Z I U 2 = 0 + Z 2 I 2 (3.45) U 0 = 0 + Z 0 I 0 where Z is the Z-bus matrix of the positive-sequence system with the shortened voltage source. Z 2 Z 0 I I 2 I 0 is the Z-bus matrix of the negative-sequence system. is the Z-bus matrix of the zero-sequence system. is a vector containing the injected positive-sequence current changes into the buses. In this example only I (2) 0, since the load is connected to bus 2. is a vector containing the injected negative-sequence current changes into the buses. In this example only I 2 (2) 0. is a vector containing the injected zero-sequence current changes into the buses. In this example only I 0 (2) 0. Figure 3.6 shows the positive-, negative- and zero-sequence systems which will be used to calculate the voltage changes due to connection of the unsymmetrical load at bus 2. The difference between the positive-sequence system in Figure 3.6 and the -system used in section 7.2 is that the load is now represented by the currents injected into the buses. The infinite bus (bus ) is assumed to be directly connected to ground and the transformer is Y0-Y0 connected. The admittance matrices of the sequence networks shown in Figure 3.6 can be formed as Y = Y 2 = Y 0 = [ [ [ + Z LD Z 2 Z 2 + Z 2 Z 2 Z t + Z LD 2 Z 2 2 Z Z 2 2 Z 2 2 Z T 2 + Z LD 0 Z 2 0 Z Z 2 0 Z 2 0 Z t 0 ] ] ] (3.46) Note that Y = Y ( : 2, : 2), i.e. the row and column corresponding to the bus connected to the voltage source (bus in this example) are removed, see also Y in section 7.2. Furthermore, Y 2 = Y for a system that is only composed of lines, transformers and symmetrical impedance loads, since their positive- and negative-sequence components are identical. From the above Y-bus matrices the corresponding Z-bus matrices can be calculated as Z = Y Z 2 = Y 2 (3.47) Z 0 = Y 0

Positive-, negative- and zero-sequence diagrams for calculations of the voltage changes. Since only the sequence components of the injected currents (i.e. I ) into the bus to which the unsymmetrical load is connected (bus 2 in this example) are nonzero, these currents are of interest and will be calculated as follows. Based on equation (3.45), we have U bus2 = U (2) = U } bus2 {{ } from eq. (3.43) + Z (2, 2) I (2) U bus2 2 = U 2(2) = 0 + Z 2 (2, 2) I 2 (2) (3.48) U bus2 0 = U 0(2) = 0 + Z 0 (2, 2) I 0 (2) Assuming that the unsymmetrical load is connected to bus r (r = 2 in this example), the equations can be summarized as U U busr (r) = U busr 2 = U pre (r) + Z (r, r) I (r) = (3.49) U busr 0 U T hbusr Z (r, r) Z 2 (r, r) Z 0 (r, r) I (r) I 2 (r) I 0 (r) It should be pointed out that equation (3.49) indeed describes the Thévenin equivalents as seen from bus r, where the voltage behind the positive-sequence impedance is U T hbusr = U bus2 and the three Thévenin impedances are Z (r, r), Z 2 (r, r) and Z 0 (r, r). Assume that the unsymmetrical load is Y0-connected with Z LDbusra in phase a, Z LDbusrb in phase b and Z LDbusrc in phase c. The voltage drop over the load is

155 49 U LDbusra Z LDbusra 0 0 I LDbusra U LDbusrph = U LDbusrb = 0 Z LDbusrb 0 I LDbusrb = U LDbusrc 0 0 Z LDbusrc I LDbusrc = Z LDbusrph I LDbusrph (3.50) (3.5) By introducing symmetrical components, this can be converted to U (r) = U busr U busr 2 = T U LDbusrph = T Z LDbusrph I LDbusrph = U busr 0 = T Z LDbusrph T I LDbusrs = Z LDbusrs I (r) } {{ } =Z LDbusrs Note that I LDbusrs is injected into the load, however I (r) is injected into the bus. Therefore, I LDbusrs = I (r). Next based on equations (3.49) and (3.5), the current I (r) can be expressed by I (r) = [Z (r, r) + Z LDbusrs ] U pre (r) (3.52) These values of the symmetrical components of the current at bus r can then be inserted into equation (3.45) where the symmetrical components of all voltages can be calculated. The voltage at bus k can then be calculated as : U (k) = U pre (k) + Z (k, r) I (r) U 2(k) = Z 2 (k, r) I 2 (r) (3.53) U 0(k) = Z 0 (k, r) I 0 (r) Example 3.3 Consider again the system described in Example 7.3. The following additional data is also given: The infinite bus (i.e. bus ) has and a grounded zero connection point. Transformer T is -Y0 connected with Y 0 on the 0 kv-side, and Z n = 0. Transformer T2 is Y0-Y0 connected with Z n = 0. The zero-sequence impedances of the lines are 3 times the positive-sequence impedances, and the zero-sequence shunt admittances of the lines are 0.5 times the positive-sequence shunt admittances. The load LD is -connected. The load LD2 is Y0-connected with Z n = 0. Furthermore, half of the normal load connected to phase a is disconnected while the other phases are loaded as normal, i.e. LD2 is an unsymmetrical load.

Solution ) Start with the building of the impedance diagram of the positive-, negative- and zerosequence networks for the entire system excluding the unsymmetrical load, see Figure Z23 U Th Zt ysh 23 ZLD 4 5 Z24 Z t 2 ysh 24 Zt 2 a) Positive-sequence system 2 3 Z23 2 ysh 23 2 ZLD Z24 2 Z t 2 2 ysh 24 2 Zt 0 b) Negative-sequence system 2 3 Z23 0 ysh Z24 0 Z t 2 0 ysh 24 0 c) Zero-sequence system Figure 3.7.

Bus is included in order to determine the voltage at all buses prior to the connection of the unsymmetrical load. However, the load LD2 is not included in the Y-bus matrix since it is unsymmetrical. It implies that Y is identical with the admittance matrix Y in Example 7.3 with the exception of the fifth diagonal element in which the unsymmetrical load LD2 is not included, i.e. Y = Y with Y 55 = Z t2, see equation (7.49). 2) Next step is to replace the sequence networks with Thévenin equivalents as seen from bus 5, i.e. U T hbus5, Z T hbus5, Z T hbus5 2 and Z T hbus5 0, see Figure 3.2. First, the Z-bus matrix is calculated as follows: Z = Y = j j j j j j j j j j j j j j j j j j j j j j j j j0.675

158 52 Then, based on equation (3.43), the Thévenin voltage U T hbus5 can be obtained as U T hbus5 = Z (5, )I bus = Z (5, ) U T h Z (, ) = (3.56) Based on equations (3.46)-(3.47), the positive-sequence impedance of the Thévenin equivalent can be obtained from the Z-bus matrix of the positive-sequence system with voltage source shortened. This implies that in forming Y, the row and column corresponding to the bus connected to voltage source (i.e. bus ) in matrix Y are removed. Thus, Y = Y 22 Z 23 Z 24 0 Z 23 Y Z 24 0 Y 44 Z t2 0 0 Z t2 Z t2 The matrix Z can now be obtained as follows: Z = Y = j j j j j j j j j j j j j j j j0.77 (3.57) (3.58) Note that the element (4,4) corresponds to bus 5 since the row and column corresponding to bus is removed. This implies that Z T hbus5 = j0.77 (3.59) The Thévenin impedance of the negative-sequences Z T hbus5 2 can be calculated using the corresponding matrix of the negative-sequence. The only difference between the positive- and negative-sequence networks is that there is no voltage source in the negative-sequence system. Since all impedances (and thereby all admittances) in positive- and negative-sequence networks are identical, the following is valid Thus, Y 2 = Y (3.60) Z T hbus5 2 = Z T hbus5 = j0.77 (3.6) The Y-bus matrix of the zero-sequence is different compared with the other sequences, both owing to different numerical values but also because of the zero-sequence connections in transformers and loads. Y 0 = Y 22 0 Z 23 0 Z Z 23 0 Y Z Y 44 0 Z t Z t2 0 Z t2 0 (3.62)

159 53 where Y 22 0 = Y 33 0 = Y 44 0 = + + y sh y sh 24 0 Z t 0 Z 23 0 Z y sh 23 0 Z y sh Z 24 0 Z t2 0 Corresponding Z-bus matrix is obtained as the inverse Z 0 = Y 0 = j j j j j j j j j j j j j j j j0.86 Note that element (4,4) corresponds to bus 5. Thus, (3.63) Z T hbus5 0 = j0.86 (3.64) Next, since all Thévenin equivalents as seen from bus 5 are identified, the voltage vector and impedance matrix expressed in equation (3.49) can now be obtained as follows: U pre (5) = U T hbus = Z (5, 5) = = Z T hbus Z T hbus Z T hbus5 0 = (3.65) j j j0.86 3) Determine the symmetrical components of the unsymmetrical load by using equation (3.5) and Z LD2pu from the solution to Example Z LD2pu 0 0 Z LDbus5s = T Z LDbus5ph T = T 0 Z LD2pu 0 T = 0 0 Z LD2pu j j j = j j j (3.66) j j j The symmetrical components of the currents through the load can now be determined by using equations (3.52) and (3.65) I (5) I (5) = [Z (5, 5) + Z LDbus5s ] U(5) = = I 2 (5) I 0 (5) (3.67)

160 54 4) The symmetrical components of all voltages can be calculated by using equations (3.43) and (3.53). U (2) = Z (2, ) I bus + Z (2, 5)I (5) = U 2(2) = Z 2 (2, 5)I 2 (5) = U 0(2) = Z 0 (2, 5)I 0 (5) = U (3) = Z (3, ) I bus + Z (3, 5)I (5) = U 2(3) = Z 2 (3, 5)I 2 (5) = U 0(3) = Z 0 (3, 5)I 0 (5) = (3.68) U (4) = Z (4, ) I bus + Z (4, 5)I (5) = U 2(4) = Z 2 (4, 5)I 2 (5) = U 0(4) = Z 0 (4, 5)I 0 (5) = U (5) = Z (5, ) I bus + Z (5, 5)I (5) = U 2(5) = Z 2 (5, 5)I 2 (5) = U 0(5) = Z 0 (5, 5)I 0 (5) = Note that the element numbers given in the above equations are the bus numbers. However, for Z matrices, since the row and column corresponding to the bus connected to the voltage source (in this example bus ) are removed, Z (k, r) corresponds to the element Z (k, r ), i.e. with Z (2, 5) it means the element Z (, 4). Since Z t and ȳ sh are lossless, the system losses are in the lines, i.e. Z23 and Z 24. The positive-, negative- and zero-sequence currents through these impedances are expressed by I Z23 = U (2) U (3) Z 23 = I Z23 2 = U 2(2) U 2(3) Z 23 2 = I Z23 0 = U 0(2) U 0(3) Z 23 0 = (3.69) I Z24 = U (2) U (4) Z 24 = I Z24 2 = U 2(2) U 2(4) Z 24 2 = I Z24 0 = U 0(2) U 0(4) Z 24 0 = Positive-, negative- and zero-sequence powers injected into the line with impdance Z 23 are given by S Z23 = U (2)I Z23 = j0.692 S Z23 2 = U 2(2)I Z23 2 = ( j5.72) 0 6 (3.70) S Z23 0 = U 0(2)I Z23 0 = j

161 55 By using equation (0.25), the total power flowing through Z 23 is given by S Z23in = S Z23 + S Z S Z23 0 = j0.346 (3.7) In a similar manner, the following can also be obtained: S Z24in = U (2)I Z24 + U 2(2)I Z U 0(2)I Z24 0 = j S Z23out = U (3)I Z23 + U 2(3)I Z U 0(3)I Z23 0 = j0.346 S Z24out = U (4)I Z24 + U 2(4)I Z U 0(4)I Z24 0 = j The efficiency can now be obtained as: η = 00 Real(S Z23 out ) + Real(S Z24out ) Real(S Z23in ) + Real(S Z24in ) = 99.79% (3.72) The efficiency can also be calculated as follows: ( ) U T h U S inj = U (2) T h + U 2(2) Z t ( 0 U 2 (2) Z t 2 ) ( 0 U + U 0 (2) 0(2) Z t 0 where, S inj is the total power injected into the system by the infinite bus. Next, the total load is calculated as follows: S LDtot = U (3) 2 Z LD + U 2(3) 2 Z LD 2 +0+U (5)[ I (5)] +U 2(5)[ I 2 (5)] +U 0(5)[ I 0 (5)] Thus, η = 00 Real(S LD tot ) Real(S inj ) % (3.73) Note that (3.72) is valid if the losses are only in the lines. general expression regardless of where the losses are. ) However, (3.73) is a

163 Chapter 4 Power system harmonics Currents and voltages that are not pure sinusoidal occur when non-linear components are connected to the power system. Non-linear components gives for example that a complex notation of the voltage drop U = ZI (4.) over a component cannot be used directly since the component itself cannot be describes as an impedance. Examples of non-linear components are power electronic devices and transformer operating with saturation. The influence non-linear components may have on a power system will be illustrated by an example. Assume that a symmetric three-phase voltage, U M = 400 V, f = 50 Hz, feeds a resistive, Y-connected three-phase load, R = 400 Ω, via anti-parallel connected thyristors as given in Figure 4.. u a (t) T R i a (t) u b (t) T3 T2 R i b (t) u c (t) T5 T4 R i c (t) T6 i 0 (t) u 0 =0 Figure 4.. Three-phase load fed via thyristors all having the same firing angle α Thyristors are used in power systems to control the power flow. A thyristor is a controllable diode where the firing angle α denotes the delay after the voltage zero crossing that the thyristor starts to behave as a conductor. Anti-parallel connected thyristors are used in e.g. dimmers that are used to control the light from a lamp. In Figure 4.2 the voltage in phase a in Figure 4. is shown as well as how the current changes when the firing angle of the thyristors T and T2 is changed. As indicated in Figure 4.2, i a decreases as the firing angle α increases. The firing angle α can be increased to a maximum of 80, i.e. half cycle. The firing angle α = 45 means that the thyristor is ignited and behaves as a conductor after 45 = cycle, i.e. after s. When i adt decreases, the mean power delivered is also decreased, i.e. the thyristors controls the power flow. The figure also shows that when the firing angle α 0, the current is not purely sinusoidal. If all thyristors in Figure 4. have the firing angle α = 0, the phase currents i a, i b and i c will be sinusoidal and thereby the load will draw a sinusoidal current. The current i 0 is equal to zero. 57

164 58 Assume that all thyristors instead have a firing angle of 45. The three phase currents as well as the current in the neutral will have the shape shown in Figure 4.3. As given in Figure 4.3, the occurrence of thyristors gives a current in the neutral conductor. If the firing angle increases in the circuit, Figure 4., the shape of the currents will also change. In Figure 4.4 the currents when having a firing angle of 35 at all thyristors are shown. ua ia_ ia_ ia_ Figure 4.2.

Currents in the circuit given in figure 4. when the firing angle is 45 In the analysis of not purely sinusoidal quantities in the power system, Fourier analysis is often used. The quantity of interest is then studied as the sum of sinusoidal quantities with

165 59 a fundamental frequency and multiples of it, so called harmonics. The current in e.g. phase a can then be calculated as i a (t) = a 0 + a n cos(nωt + γ n ) (4.2) n= The amplitudes a n and phase angles γ n of the fundamental frequency as well as harmonics of the current, can be calculated by using Fast Fourier Transform, FFT, using samples of the waveform of the current as given in Figure 4.3. ia(t) ib(t) ic(t) i0(t) Figure 4.4.

Frequency spectra of the currents shown in figure 4.3 In Figure 4.5,the result of a Fourier analysis of the currents given in Figure 4.3 is shown. As shown in the figure, the harmonics in each phase are the same since the waveform of

166 60 the currents are the same in the three phases. For the current i 0, the rate of harmonics is different. The rate of harmonics is also given in Table 4. which also includes an analysis of the system condition at a firing angle of 35. α = 45 α = 35 i a i 0 i a i 0 Order Hz A % of 50 Hz A % of 50 Hz A % of 50 Hz A % of 50 Hz THD RMS Table 4.. Harmonics in the phase currents in the circuit given in Figure 4. at α = 45 and α = 35 As given in table 4., no even harmonics exist. This owing to the anti-parallel connected thyristors in the three phases that all have the same firing angle giving that the positive and the negative part of the current have the same waveform, i.e. a mirror image along the time-axis, see Figure 4.3 and 4.4. In Table 4., the Total Harmonic Distortion, THD, is given which is an RMS-value of the total harmonics. T HD = 2 a 2 n (4.3) n=2 As given in Table 4., the harmonics in the neutral conductor is (mainly) the odd multiples of three times the fundamental frequency, i.e. 3, 9, 5, etc. (The low percentage levels given for other harmonics in the table are due to limitations in the calculation routine used.) Also the amplitude of the harmonics are higher in the neutral conductor compared with the phase conductors. The reason for this is that the harmonics in the three phases have the same phase position since the phase displacement of 20 is an even number of cycles of the

167 6 frequency, because i 0 3n = i a 3n + i b 3n + i c 3n = = a n cos(3nωt + γ n ) + a n cos(3nωt + γ n + 20 ) + (4.4) + a n cos(3nωt + γ n 20 ) = 3a n cos(3nωt + γ n ) For the other harmonics, the current in the different phases are cancelling one another in the neutral conductor since each of them represents a symmetrical phase sequence RMS(ia) RMS(i0) RMS(i0) / RMS(ia) alfa [degrees] Figure 4.6. RMS(i a ) ( ), RMS(i 0 ) ( ), and the quotient RMS(i 0 )/RMS(i a ) (... ) i 0 (3n±) = i a (3n±) + i b (3n±) + i c (3n±) = = a n cos(3nωt + γ n ) + a n cos(3nωt + γ n ± 20 ) + (4.5) + a n cos(3nωt + γ n 20 ) = 0 Note that if no neutral conductor existed, no harmonics having a multiple of three times the fundamental frequency could occur in the phase conductors either. Since the harmonics of multiples of three times the fundamental frequency has the same phase position, they will appear as zero-sequence components which implies that they cannot pass -Y-connected transformers. The firing angle of the thyristors will of course influence the currents in the phases as well as in the neutral conductor. In Figure 4.6, the change in the RMS-value of the current when the firing angle is increased is shown. As shown in Figure 4.6, the i 0 -current is relatively small for firing angles up to approximately 20. When the firing angle has increased to about 70, the RMS-values of the current in the neutral conductor is as large as the RMS-value of the phase current. The RMS-value of the current in the neutral conductor reach a maximum value when the firing angle is α = 90 and for even higher firing angles, the current in the neutral conductor is 3 times the phase current.
