Ferranti Effect

This document contains a MATLAB program to simulate the Ferranti effect on a 5000 km transmission line. The program varies the length of the line from 0 to 5000 km in steps of 10 km and plots the sending end voltage phasor. The theoretical solution to finding the incident and reflected voltages at the receiving and 200 km points on the open-circuited line is also provided, but the calculations are not shown. The expected output plots the real and imaginary components of the sending end voltage over length, and the resultant voltage at 5000 km.

E2 - MATLAB Program to Simulate Ferranti Effect


AIM: To find Ferranti effect of a 5000 kM transmission line and to plot the locus of
voltage for the given problem and verify results in MATLAB.

PROBLEM:
A 3-Phase 50 Hz transmission line is 5000 kM long. The line parameters are R=
0.125Ω/km,X= 0.4 Ω/km and Y= 2.8*10-6 mho/km. If the line is open circuited with
a receiving end voltage of 220KV, find the rms value and phase angle of the
following. Use the receiving-end line to neutral voltage as reference.
(a) The incident and reflected voltages to neutral at the receiving-end.
(b) The incident and reflected voltages to neutral at 200 km from the receiving-
end.
(c) The resultant voltage at 200 km from the receiving end.
Solve the problem theoretically. Vary the length of the long transmission
line in steps of 10 KM from zero (receiving end) to 5000KM (sending end),
and plot the sending end voltage phasor using MATLAB.
