Question: Transformers in a power system with a single line diagram in the figure operate at 1 5 MVA power, series reactance ( mathrm

Transformers in a power system with a single line diagram in the figure operate at 15MVA power, series reactance \(\mathrm{X}=10\%\mathrm{pu}\) and \(10\Delta /100\mathrm{Y}\mathrm{kV}\) voltage levels. The serial reactance value of the transmission line is \(\mathrm{X}=50\Delta \). The system feeds a load of 10MVA (\(8\mathrm{MW}+\mathrm{j}6\mathrm{MVAr}\)). Find the unit values of the system elements by taking Sbase \(=10\mathrm{MVA}\) and \(\mathrm{Vbase}=12.5\mathrm{kV}\) and ignoring the internal resistance of the generator. Perform the following steps with any power system analysis program and interpret the results.
1.Set the Generator voltage to 1.07 pu .
2. Solve the load flow analysis using the Newton-Raphson method.
3. Triple the line reactance and perform load flow analysis.
4. Perform load flow analysis by changing the reactive power Q between 0.1 pu and 2 pu while keeping the active power P constant.
5. Perform load flow analysis by changing the active power P between 0.1 pu and 2 pu while keeping the reactive power Q constant.
6. Evaluate the drop in the end-of-line voltage by examining the results.
7. Consider methods that can be used to increase the end-of-line voltage (you will compare the line reactance with the value in step 8 when examining the factors below).
a) Parallel compensation. (Add parallel C or B by changing the busbar information at the end of the line).
b) Tuned transformer. (Change the conversion ratio by changing the information of the T2 transformer).
c) Place a second parallel line.
d) Apply series compensation on the line (reduce the line reactance).
e) Increase the transmission line voltage level. (For this you will need to recalculate the base impedance of the transmission line and the pu value of the line impedance. For transformers, use a conversion ratio of \(10/200\)).
8. Discuss your results and evaluate the advantages and disadvantages of each method.
9. Draw the phasor diagram for a single value for each set of experiments.
