1. Consider the following power system shown in Fig. 1 below. The load will be
modeled as a constant impedance load taking 32+j16 MVA at nominal voltage.
The given percent impedances are with respect to corresponding equipment
rating. For this exercise calculations are to be done with SB= 10 MVA.

a) Calculate the load impedance in ohms.
b) Select the generator rated voltage as a base voltage on generator side. What
should be the base voltages on the transmission and load sides? What are base
impedances on the generator, transmission, and load sides?
c) Draw an impedance diagram showing the generator equivalent circuit, the
transformers, transmission line and load, and label it properly with per unit
impedances. Show the per unit calculation of the generator and transmission line
impedances and for the other just show the per unit values on the diagram.
d) If the generator terminal voltage is regulated to 1 pu, calculate the complex power
delivered by the generator, the voltage at node 4 (V4), and the internal generator
voltage Ea.
e) If the rated power factor of the generator is 0.85, use its capability curve to
determine its reactive power limits when it delivers the active power calculated in
Part e) above? Explain whether the generator is operating satisfactorily.

2. Consider the power system shown in Fig. 2 below for which a load flow is to be
solved using the Gauss-Seidel iterative approach. The powers are given in MVA and
the line reactances are given in per-unit on SB= 100 MVA base. Node 1 is the
reference node with a voltage V1= 1.05∠0.

Fig. 2: 3-Node system for Problem 2
a) Determine the nodal admittance matrix (Y) of the above network. Show the
calculation for one diagonal and one off-diagonal elements, and for other
elements just provide the vales on the matrix.
b) Write down the Gauss-Seidel iterative expressions for this problem for V2 and V3.
Write down the expressions in variable form then in numeric for replacing
appropriate quantities by their values.
c) Starting the iterative process at nominal values (1+j0 pu), calculate the values of
V2 and V3 at the end of the first and second iterations.
3. Consider a generation system consisting of three units for which it is required to
perform an economic load dispatch study. The units have the following fuel-cost
curves and limits.
C1(PG1)= 250 + 25 PG1 + 0.010 PG1
2 $/h
C2(PG2)= 350 + 20 PG2 + 0.020 PG2
2 $/h
C3(PG3)= 240 + 20 PG3 + 0.025 PG3
2 $/h
50 ≤ PG1 ≤ 150 MW
80 ≤ PG2 ≤ 250 MW
50 ≤ PG3 ≤ 150 MW
a) Write down the equations needed to determine the optimum point of system
operation when the demand is 400 MW.
b) Solve the equations set up in Part a) and determine the power delivered by each
generator and the incremental cost of the system.
c) What is the optimum operating point of the system, its incremental cost and the
power delivered by each unit when the demand is raised to 500 MW and then to
520 MW?

4. Consider the system shown in Fig. 3 below, which has the following data in per unit
on a 10 MVA base:
V1= 1 ∠0
ZL= j 0.2
SD1= 0.4 + j 0.2
SD2= 0.8 + j 0.4
The generator rating is 15 MVA at 0.9 PF.

a) Use a Gauss-Seidel iterative method to determine V2 when Q2 is 0. Set up the
iterative equation of V2 and carry out 4 iterations only.
b) What are the line current IL and the complex power S1 supplied by the generator?
Is the complex power supplied within the capability limit of the generator?
Explain.
c) What would be the reactive power Q2 if |V2| is to be regulated to 1? Under these
conditions what is the line current IL and the complex power S1 supplied by the
generator?
d) If you were a system designer in a power company, would you recommend
installing a capacitor bank to supply Q2? Can Q2 be made smaller? If so how
small can Q2 be made approximately? Explain.
5. Write a 100 to 150 words abstract explaining what was your project about, the scope
of work that you have done, the methodology followed or main topics discussed, the
main results, conclusions, or recommendations that you achieved. Then explain with
just enough details to specifically clarify your personal contribution to the project.
