Re-determine the Example 9_8 fault currents, except with a second generator added at bus 3. The parameters
Question:
Re-determine the Example 9_8 fault currents, except with a second generator added at bus 3. The parameters for the new generator should be identical to those of the existing generator at bus 3. Are the fault currents larger or smaller than the Example 9_8 values?
Example 9_8
Consider the five-bus power system whose single-line diagram is shown in Figure 6.2. Machine, line, and transformer data are given in Tables 9.1, 9.2, and 9.3. Note that the neutrals of both transformers and generator 1 are solidly grounded, as indicated by a neutral reactance of zero for this equipment. However, a neutral reactance equal to 0.0025 per unit is connected to the generator 2 neutral. The prefault voltage is 1.05 per unit. Using PowerWorld Simulator, determine the fault currents and voltages for a bolted single line-to-ground fault at bus 1 , then bus 2 , and so on to bus 5 .
