EE-447 Power System Analysis I: Problem 1

The document contains 4 problems related to power system analysis: 1) Calculates geometric mean radius (GMR) and resistance of a stranded conductor, and inductance of a 3-phase transmission line. 2) Determines inductance and capacitance per km of a 3-phase line with two "Rook" conductors per phase. 3) Calculates sending end voltage, voltage regulation, and power when a 18 km line delivers 100 MVA at 0.9 power factor. 4) Performs similar calculations as problem 3 but for a 98 km line delivering 50 MVA.

EE-447 Power System Analysis I

Problem 1
The stranded conductor below consists of six identical aluminum strands
surrounding a fiber optic cable. The six strands and the fiber optic cable all have
the same radius of 3.0 mm.

a) Determine the GMR of the conductor.

b) Three of these conductors are equally spaced 2.5 m apart to form a


three-phase transmission line. Determine the inductance per phase in
mH/km of the line.
c) Given the resistivity, ρ, of aluminum is 2.8 × 10-8 Ω-m, determine
the dc resistance per km of the complete conductor (all six strands).
