Time duration: 02 hours
This paper consists of TWO questions. Answer all the questions
Question 1
Consider the power system shown in Figure Q1. Parameters of the system on common
base of 100 MVA are indicted in the figure
Figure Q1
(a) Identify the bus types, known and unknown parameters of the system
(b) Formulate the bus admittance matrix
(c) Calculate unknown voltages of the system using Gauss- Seidel method. One
iteration is sufficient
(d) Determine the accuracy of the results
(e) Calculate slack bus power and power factor
(f) Calculate power flow from bus 1 to 3 and from bus 3 to 1
Question 2
A generator G delivers power to a large system S which can be considered as infinite bus
(Figure Q2). A load (S) is connected between generator and system. Parameters of the
elements of the system in p.u. on a common base are indicated in the figure.
Figure Q2
This system is to be solved using Fast decoupled load flow (FDLF) method
(a) Calculate power mismatch at buses 1 and 2
(b) Calculate elements of the Jacobian matrix (only the elements that are required
for FDLF)
(c) Determine unknown voltages using FDLF method. One iteration is sufficient
