Nominal-T 100 km line, 20 MW at 110 kV
Short answer
Total Z=20+j40 Ω, Y=j2.5×10⁻⁴ S. Receiving V_R=63.51 kV, I_R=116.6∠-25.84° A. Nominal-T: mid-point V_C=65.59∠1.39° kV, I_S=110.1∠-18.23° A, V_S=67.39∠2.84° kV/phase (116.73 kV line).
A 100 km long 3-phase 50 Hz transmission line is nominal-T modelled. The resistance and reactance are 0.2 Ω per phase per km and j0.4 per phase per km respectively. The shunt admittance is j2.5 × 10⁻⁶ S/phase per km. Calculate current and voltage at the sending end if the line delivers 20 MW at 110 kV and at 0.9 p.f. lagging.
Given: km, /km, S/km; load 20 MW at 110 kV, 0.9 p.f. lagging; nominal-T model.
