Obtain the solution for Problems 5.8 through 5.13 using the lineperf program. Then, solve each Problem using hand calculations. A three-phase, 765-kV, 60-Hz transposed line is composed of four ACSR 1,431,000, 45/7 Bobolink conductors per phase with flat horizontal spacing of 14 m. The conductors have a diameter of 3.625 cm and a GMR of 1.439 cm. The bundle spacing is 45 cm. The line is 400 Km long, and for the purpose of this problem, a lossless line is assumed.
(a) Determine the transmission line surge impedance Zc, phase constant ¯, wavelength ¸, the surge impedance loading SIL, and the ABCD constant.
(b) The line delivers 2000 MVA at 0.8 lagging power factor at 735 kV. Determine the sending end quantities and voltage regulation.
(c) Determine the receiving end quantities when 1920MWand 600 Mvar are being transmitted at 765 kV at the sending end.
(d) The line is terminated in a purely resistive load. Determine the sending end quantities and voltage regulation when the receiving end load resistance is 264:5 at 735 kV.
