Study Notes
Power System Analysis Course Learning Outcomes
- Analyze power systems using single-line and reactance diagrams.
- Design reactance diagrams for large power systems.
- Calculate per-unit reactance values.
One-Line Diagrams
- A one-line diagram simplifies complex three-phase power systems.
- It uses simplified symbols to represent components.
- It shows major connections and arrangements of power system components.
- Provides a concise overview of the power system.
Symbols Used in One-Line Diagrams
- Machine (generator/motor): A circle with a dash through it.
- Two-winding transformer: Two rectangles connected by lines.
- Circuit breaker: An interconnecting line.
- 30 delta connection: A triangle.
- 30 star connection, ungrounded neutral: A circle resembling a star.
- 30 star connection, grounded neutral: A circle with a line connecting to a triangle-shaped configuration.
Impedance Diagrams
- Used to calculate the performance of a power system during balanced conditions.
- Represents component characteristics in per-phase equivalent circuit form.
- Facilitates analysis of load flow studies.
Assumptions in Impedance Diagrams
- Generators and motors are represented by voltage sources with series resistance and inductive reactance.
- Loads are represented with series resistance and reactance.
- Single-phase transformers are represented by their impedances.
- Short transmission lines are represented by series impedances.
- Medium and long transmission lines are represented with π circuit models.
- Neutral grounding impedances are ignored for balanced conditions.
Reactance Diagrams
- Equivalent circuit of a power system where each component is represented.
- Derived from impedance diagram by omitting resistive components.
- Used in fault calculations.
- Assumptions to simplify modeling:
- Neglecting resistances of equipment.
- Ignoring charging admittance of transmission lines.
- Neglecting shunt branches in transformer equivalent circuits.
- Ignoring static loads.
Per-Unit Quantities
- Components in power systems may operate at different voltage and power levels.
- Expressing parameters with a common base provides simplification for analysis.
- A chosen base value simplifies voltage, power, current and impedance calculations.
- All parameters are expressed as per-unit values relative to the base values.
- Per-unit value of a quantity is its actual value divided by the base value of that quantity.
- Per-unit values are calculated for voltage, current, impedance, and power.
- The base values are chosen to simplify computations and interpretation.
- Single-phase systems use base power (kVA), base voltage (kV), base current (amperes), and base impedance (ohms).
- The per-unit impedance of a component is directly proportional to the base MVA and inversely proportional to the square of the base voltage.
Per-unit Calculations:
- Per-unit impedance of Generator, transformer, and motor are calculated utilizing given formulas to convert to a new base value.
- Per-unit impedance of transmission lines is computed by using the formulas presented.
- Per-unit impedance for transformers is referenced to either primary or secondary sides; the value stays constant.
