Problem 4: Consider an interconnected 50-Hz power system that contains four turbine-generator units rated 750 Mw, 500 MW, 220 MW and 110 MW. The regulating constant of each unit is 0.05 per unit based on its own rating. Each unit is operating on 75% of its own rating when the load is suddenly dropped by 250 MW. We shall choose a common base of 500 MW. Calculate the rise in frequency and drop in the mechanical power output of each unit without Load Frequency Control.

Consider a three-phase generator rated 300MVA,23kV, supplying a system load of 240 MA and 0.9 power factor lagging at 230 kV through a 330MVA,23/230Y-kV step-up transformer with a leakage reactance of 0.11 per unit. (a) Neglecting the exciting current and choosing base values at the load of 100 MVL and 230 kV. Find the phasor currents IA,IB, and IC supplied to the load in per unit. (b) By choosing the load terminal voltage IA as reference, specify the proper base for the generator circuit and determine the generator voltage V as well as the phasor currents IA,IB, and IC, from the generator. (Note: Take into account the phase shift of the transformer.) (C) Find the generator terminal voltage in kV and the real power supplied by the generator in MW. (d) By omitting the transformer phase shift altogether, check to see whether you get the same magnitude of generator terminal voltage and real power delivered by the generator.
With the same transformer banks as in Problem 3.47, Figure 3.41 shows the oneline diagram of a generator, a step-up transformer bank, a transmission line, a stepown transformer bank, and an impedan load. The generator terminal voltage is 15 kV (line-to-line). (a) Draw the per-phase equivalent circuit, aounting for phase shifts for positive-sequence operation. (b) By choosing the line-to-neutral generator terminal voltage as the reference, determine the magnitudes of the generator current, transmiss ion-line current, load current, and line-to-line load voltage. Also, find the three-phase complex power delivered to the load.
PowerWorid Simulator case Problem 3_60 duplicates Example 3.13 except that a resistance term of 0.06 per unit has been added to the transformer and 0.05 per unit to the transmission line. Since the system is no longer lossless, a field showing the real power losses has also been added to the oneline. With the LTC tap fixed at 1.05, plot the real power losses as the phase shift angle is varied from 10 to +10 degrees. What value of phase shift minimizes the system losses?
The per-unit quantity is always dimensionless. (a) True (b) False
The fuel-cost curves for two generators are given as follows: C1(P1)=600+18P1+0.04(P1)2C2(P2)=700+20P2+0.03(P2)2 Assuming the system is lossless, calculate the optimal dispatch values of P1 and P2 for a total load of 1000 MW, the incremental operating cost, and the total operating cost.
