Despite its limitations and dangers, technology can alleviate in part the bind in which humankind naturally finds itself. Appropriate technology can increase life’s possibilities, decrease physical burdens and difficulties at work, and free people from routine activities while opening the door to all kinds of mental creative labor. Natural disasters can be averted, illness overcome, and, in a certain sense, with the aid of electronics and microprocessors, the deaf can hear, the blind can see, and the lame walk again. Technology development can provide a degree of social security, and increase available information so as to extend and deepen communications. Adapted from “Perspectives on Technology and Culture,” by Egbert Schuurman

Calvin College - January 2008 – A C.S. Lewis Quote Calendar - Meditations for Interim 2008 (Complied by P. F. Ribeiro) I believe in Christianity as I believe that the sun has risen, not only because I see it but because by it I see everything else. Is Theology Poetry? Sunday Monday Tuesday Wednesday Thursday Friday Saturday “Prayer is either a sheer illusion or a personal contact between embryonic, incomplete persons (ourselves) and the utterly concrete Person. Prayer in the sense of petition, asking for things, is a small part of it; confession and penitence are its threshold, adoration its sanctuary, the presence and vision and enjoyment of God its wine.” The World’s Last Night

My objective is to provide you with a learning environment in which you will learn the fundamentals of power systems.

My approach is to encourage the student to learn how to learn. To take ownership of the learning process: Initiative, involvement, interactive participation are the keys to an effective learning experience.

Please keep me informed if you do not feel that I have been successful in this goal. Do not wait until evaluation time to express your frustrations. I want to listen to your concerns or difficulties with the material, and am always available to help you outside the classroom.

……Make sure you have your students run LOTS of load flows...PowerWorld has an excellent demo package for schools. You can be sure to tell them that in the "real world" though, we are running 30,000+ bus load flows!However, they will NOT have to know anything about wavelets! :-)

We have a lot of positions open and will have more in the near future.

Why do we use Alternating Current (AC) for Electric Power?

• Construction of Generators:Key component is the 3 phase generator• Simple in raising and lowering voltages:

– Generators limited to about 25kV– Transmission at 345,500 and 765kV (low losses)– Subtransmission at 115, 69, 22kV– Distribution at 12, 8, 4kV– Key component: power transformer

Where does AC come from?

• AC voltages and currents are usually produced by rotating generators in a power system and are represented by “sine waves”

• AC voltages and currents can also be produced by an electronic oscillator.

Page 78: Introduction Power Systems 08 a (2)

78

A one phase AC generator

Page 79: Introduction Power Systems 08 a (2)

79

Phase Angle

• For AC circuits we must be concerned with the phase angle between voltage and current.

• Current may be “in phase” with voltage in which case the phase angle is zero

• Current may “lead” or “lag” voltage

Page 80: Introduction Power Systems 08 a (2)

A phasor is a representation of a sinusoidal voltage or current as a vector rotating about the origin of the complex plane.

Example of Voltage and current calculations without phasors:

For a simple RL circuit with the above excitation voltage, find the current:

This becomes a very difficult problem to solve, with the solution:

AC Power and Phasors

Page 81: Introduction Power Systems 08 a (2)

81

Euler’s Equation

Representation of voltages and currents as complex numbers:

We then shorten the notation, assuming that all phasors that will be used in a system are at the same frequency, the (ejwt) term is implicit in all references to the value. Another assumption that is made is that the magnitude of any voltage or current as a function of time is the real part of its complex representation. Hence, may be represented in any of the following ways:

being called the exponential, polar, and rectangular forms respectively, where

is the root mean square (rms) of the voltage wave form.

Definition of RMS

AC Power and Phasors

voltages using rotating vectors (called phasors)

82

Phasor representation of Resistance, Inductance, Capacitance

Advantages of Phasors

Less Cumbersome (short hand notation)

Simpler Calculations (complex arithmetic, calculators can do), generally less need for integration and differentiation

Additional insights may be obtained about relations between currents, voltages, and power

Limitations

Applies only to sinusoidal steady-state systems

Power Calculated using phasors is only the time average

Voltage and Current are the same(phase angle is zero)

Current “leads” voltage by a phase angle of 45 deg

Page 85: Introduction Power Systems 08 a (2)

Current “lags” voltage by a phase angle of 45 deg

Page 86: Introduction Power Systems 08 a (2)

Why must we use RMS voltages and currents?

• Use RMS so that the product of voltage and current gives the correct power value, or the “effective” value of energy delivered per second to the load.

131

Advantages1. Per-unit representation results in a more meaningful and correlated data. It gives relative magnitude information. 2. There will be less chance of missing up between single - and three-phase powers or between line and phase voltages. 3. The p.u. system is very useful in simulating machine systems on analog, digital, and hybrid computers for steady-state and dynamic analysis. 4. Manufacturers usually specify the impedance of a piece of apparatus in p.u. (or per cent) on the base of the name plate rating of power ( ) and voltage ( ). Hence, it can be used directly if the bases chosen are the same as the name plate rating. 5. The p.u. value of the various apparatus lie in a narrow range, though the actual values vary widely. 6. The p.u. equivalent impedance (Zsc) of any transformer is the same referred to either primary or secondary side. For complicated systems involving many transformers or different turns ratio, this advantage is a significant one in that a possible cause of serious mistakes is removed. 7. Though the type of transformer in 3-phase system, determine the ratio of voltage bases, the p.u. impedance is the same irrespective of the type of 3-phase transformer. (Yç D , D ç Y, D ç D , or Yç Y) 8. Per-unit method allows the same basic arithmetic operation resulting in per-phase end values, without having to worry about the factor '100' which occurs in per cent system.

Conversion Procedure

-Specify the MVA base. Typically this will be related to the rating of a generator, transformer, or transmission line. Just choose the one that will result in the least amount of computation. This base will remain constant throughout the system.

-At any location in the circuit, specify a voltage base. This will typically be the nominal voltage for that particular location.

-Determine the voltage base for all other areas in the circuit by adjusting by the turns ratio every time a transformer is encountered.

-Having specified the voltage and MVA base throughout the system, current and impedance bases may be determined as:

-For each value, the per unit quantity is the actual value divided by the base value.

-For 3phase circuits, the following relationships must also be included:

Load Flow Problem

Load flow calculations are used to determine the voltage, current, and real and reactive power at various points in a power system under normal steady-state conditions.

For power systems with a large number of buses, the load flow problem becomes computationally intensive. Therefore, for large power systems, the load flow is solved using specific programs based on iterative techniques, such as the Newton-Raphson method.

Power systems of smaller size, however, require considerably less computational effort, and load flow algorithms can be developed which function easily on personal computers.

Page 154: Introduction Power Systems 08 a (2)

154

The approach used here for solving the load flow is based on the Newton-Raphson iterative method. The required input to the problem is the generated and load power at each bus and the voltage magnitude on generating buses.

This information is acquired from load data and the normal system operating conditions. The solution provides the voltage magnitude and phase angle at all buses and the power flows and losses of the transmission lines.

Load Flow Problem

Page 155: Introduction Power Systems 08 a (2)

155

For load flow calculations, the system buses are classified into three types:

The slack bus: There is only one such bus in the system. Due to losses in the network, the real and reactive power cannot be known at all buses. Therefore, the slack bus will provide the necessary power to maintain the power balance in the system. The slack bus is usually a bus where generation is available. For this bus, the voltage magnitude and phase angle are specified (normally the voltage phase angle is set to zero degrees). The voltage phase angle of all other buses is expressed with the slack bus voltage phasor as reference.

The generating or PV-bus: This bus type represents the generating stations of the system. The information known for PV-buses is the net real power generation and bus-voltage magnitude. The net real power generation is the generated real power minus the real power of any local load.

The load or PQ-bus: For these buses, the net real and reactive power is known. PQ-buses normally do not have generators. However, if the reactive power of a generator reaches its limit, the corresponding bus is treated as a PQ-bus. This is equivalent to adjusting the bus voltage until the generator reactive power falls within the prescribed limits.

Distribution substations and feeders may be treated as generating buses in distribution networks.

Load Flow Problem

Page 156: Introduction Power Systems 08 a (2)

156

The load flow equations are written in terms of the net power injection to each bus. With reference to figure below, the net power injection into the kth bus is the combination of generated and load power. The power flowing out of this bus must equal the net injected power. Therefore, the power balance equation at the kth bus is written as follows in terms of the system voltage

where

N is the number of network buses,

Pk is the net real power injected into the kth bus,

Qk is the net reactive power injected into the kth bus,

Yk,i is the total admittance between bus k and i: this total can be found from the bus admittance matrix, Ybus, of the system,

Vi is the voltage of the ith bus.

Load Flow Problem

Page 157: Introduction Power Systems 08 a (2)

157

where k,n is the angle of the admittance, Yk,n, and j is the voltage phase angle at bus, j.

A real power equation is written for every PV- and PQ-bus and a reactive power equation is written for every PQ-bus. Thus, for a power system with N buses of which L are PQ-buses there are (N-1) real power equations (excluding the slack bus) and L reactive power equations (a total of N-1+L equations). The unknowns are the magnitude and phase angle of the L PQ-bus voltages and the phase angle of the (N-1-L) PV-bus voltages (a total of N-1+L unknowns).

The left-hand side of these equations are known and an iterative process is used for finding the unknown voltages and phase angles such the above equations are balanced.

Load Flow Problem

Page 158: Introduction Power Systems 08 a (2)

158

The Newton-Raphson method provides a reliable approach for solving non-linear equations such as the previous equations. The main advantages of this method are its convergence characteristics and its speed. The procedure for applying the Newton-Raphson method is as follows:

From the network configuration and parameters the bus-admittance matrix is constructed. The elements of this matrix are used to calculate the power flows according to the equations.

Each network bus is assigned a type and, accordingly, information about the bus real and reactive power and bus voltage is collected.

From the above steps, the load flow equations can be assembled into the following form, with reference to previous equations:

where

P is the vector of the known net real power injections at PV- and PQ-buses,

Q is the vector of the known reactive power injections at PQ-buses,

V is the vector of the unknown bus voltage magnitudes,

is the vector of the unknown bus voltage phase angles, and

fp, fq are functions defined according to Equations (3.1.2).

Load Flow Problem

Page 159: Introduction Power Systems 08 a (2)

159

Solution of the load flow problem requires finding the values of V and such that the right-hand side of the equation equals the known power injections at the network buses. For any estimation of V and , the difference between the known power injections, P and Q and the power injections calculated by the equation is called the power mismatch.

where S is the net real and reactive power mismatch:

The power mismatch is a measure of how close to the solution the estimations of V and are. A correction to these estimations is obtained using the Newton-Raphson method, resulting in an iterative calculation process.

where the superscript, j, denotes variables calculated at the jth iteration step. J is the Jacobian matrix of the equations:

Load Flow Problem

Page 160: Introduction Power Systems 08 a (2)

160

The iteration process continues until the power mismatch at the jth step is smaller than a preset number .

To start the above iterative solution, an estimation of the unknown voltages and their phase angles is required. This first solution approximation is called initial guess. Typically, the initial guess for the voltage magnitudes is 1 pu and for their phase angles is 0 degrees (or radians).
