DATE OF SUBMISSION: 30.5.2025
1. A synchronous motor having a steady state stability limit of 200 MW is receiving 50 MW from
the infinite bus bars. Find the maximum additional load that can be applied suddenly without
causing instability.
2. In the power system shown in Fig., three phase fault occurs at P and the faulty line was opened
a little later. Find the power output equations for the pre-fault, during fault and post-fault
conditions.
3. In the power system described in the previous problem, if the generator was delivering 1.0
p.u. just before the fault occurs, calculate δcc.
4. A 20 MVA, 50 Hz generator delivers 18 MW over a double circuit line to an infinite bus. The
generator has KE of 2.52 MJ / MVA at rated speed and its transient reactance is Xd ’ = 0.35
p.u. Each transmission line has a reactance of 0.2 p.u. on a 20 MVA base. E= 1.1 p.u. and
infinite bus voltage V= 1.0 p.u. A three-phase fault occurs at the mid-point of one of the
transmission lines. Obtain the swing curve over a period of 0.5 sec. if the fault is sustained.
5. In the power system considered in the previous problem, fault is cleared by opening the circuit
breakers at both ends of the faulty line. Calculate the CCA and hence find CCT.
6. An alternator rated for 100 MVA supplies 100 MW to an infinite bus through a line of
reactance 0.08 p.u. on 100 MVA base. The machine has a transient reactance of 0.2 p.u. and
its inertia constant is 4.0 p.u. on 100 MVA base. Taking the infinite bus voltage as reference,
current supplied by the alternator is (1.0 – j 0.6375) p.u. Calculate the torque angle and speed
of the alternator for a period of 0.14 sec. when there is a three-phase fault at the machine
terminals and the fault is cleared in 0.1 sec. Use Modified Euler’s method with a time
increment of 0.02 sec.
7. Consider the problem given in previous one and solve it using 4th order RK method.
