ECE 476 Power System Analysis Lecture 7: Transmission Line Parameters Prof. Tom Overbye Dept. of Electrical and Computer Engineering University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign [email protected] Announcements • Please read Chapters 4 and 5 (skim 4.7, 4.11, 4.12) • HW 3 is 4.9 (use lecture results for 4.8 comparison), 4.12, 4.19 (just compare 4.19a to 4.19b), 4.25 • • • It does not need to be turned in, but will be covered by an in-class quiz on Thursday Sept 15 Positive sequence is same as per phase; it will be covered in Chapter 8 Use Table A.4 values to determine the Geometric Mean Radius of the wires (i.e., the ninth column). 1 Birds Do Not Sit on High Voltage Lines 2 Voltage Difference The voltage difference between any two points P and P is defined as an integral V P P E dl In previous example the voltage difference between points P and P , located radial distance R and R from the wire is (assuming = o ) V R R R dR ln 2 o R 2 o R q q 3 Voltage Difference, cont’d With V R R R dR ln 2 o R 2 o R q q if q is positive then those points closer in have a higher voltage. Voltage is defined as the energy (in Joules) required to move a 1 coulomb charge against an electric field (Joules/Coulomb). Voltage is infinite if we pick infinity as the reference point 4 Multi-Conductor Case Now assume we have n parallel conductors, each with a charge density of q i coulombs/m. The voltage difference between our two points, P and P , is now determined by superposition V n R i qi ln 2 i 1 R i 1 where R i is the radial distance from point P to the center of conductor i, and R i the distance from P to the center of conductor i. 5 Multi-Conductor Case, cont’d n If we assume that qi 0 then rewriting i=1 V 1 1 n qi ln qi ln R i 2 i 1 R i 2 i 1 1 n n We then subtract qi ln R1 0 i 1 V R i 1 1 n qi ln qi ln 2 i 1 R i 2 i 1 R 1 1 n R i As we more P to infinity, ln 0 R 1 6 Absolute Voltage Defined Since the second term goes to zero as P goes to infinity, we can now define the voltage of a point w.r.t. a reference voltage at infinity: V 1 n 1 qi ln 2 i 1 R i This equation holds for any point as long as it is not inside one of the wires! 7 Three Conductor Case A C B Assume we have three infinitely long conductors, A, B, & C, each with radius r and distance D from the other two conductors. Assume charge densities such that qa + qb + qc = 0 1 1 1 1 Va q ln q ln q ln a b c 2 r D D qa D Va ln 2 r 8 Line Capacitance For a single line capacitance is defined as qi CiVi But for a multiple conductor case we need to use matrix relationships since the charge on conductor i may be a function of Vj q1 C11 qn Cn1 q CV C1n V1 Cnn Vn 9 Line Capacitance, cont’d To eliminate mutual capacitance we'll again assume we have a uniformly transposed line. For the previous three conductor example: Va V Since q a = C Va qa 2 C Va ln D r 10 Bundled Conductor Capacitance Similar to what we did for determining line inductance when there are n bundled conductors, we use the original capacitance equation just substituting an equivalent radius c Rb (rd12 1 d1n ) n Note for the capacitance equation we use r rather than r' which was used for R b in the inductance equation 11 Line Capacitance, cont’d For the case of uniformly transposed lines we use the same GMR, D m , as before. ln 2 Dm d ab d ac dbc C Rbc where Dm R cb (rd12 1 d1n ) n 1 3 (note r NOT r') ε in air o 8.854 10-12 F/m 12 Line Capacitance Example Calculate the per phase capacitance and susceptance of a balanced 3, 60 Hz, transmission line with horizontal phase spacing of 10m using three conductor bundling with a spacing between conductors in the bundle of 0.3m. Assume the line is uniformly transposed and the conductors have a a 1cm radius. 13 Line Capacitance Example, cont’d Rbc Dm C Xc 1 (0.01 0.3 0.3) 3 1 (10 10 20) 3 0.0963 m 12.6 m 2 8.854 1012 1.141 1011 F/m 12.6 ln 0.0963 1 1 C 2 60 1.141 1011 F/m 2.33 10 -m (not / m) 8 14 ACSR Table Data (Similar to Table A.4) GMR is equivalent to r’ Inductance and Capacitance assume a Dm of 1 ft. 15 ACSR Data, cont’d Dm X L 2 f L 4 f 10 ln 1609 /mile GMR 1 3 2.02 10 f ln ln Dm GMR 1 3 2.02 10 f ln 2.02 103 f ln Dm GMR 7 Term from table assuming a one foot spacing Term independent of conductor with Dm in feet. 16 ACSR Data, Cont.

A typical Al. to St. ratio is about 4 to 1. 19 Line Conductors, cont’d • Total conductor area is given in circular mils. One circular mil is the area of a circle with a diameter of 0.001 = 0.00052 square inches • Example: what is the area of a solid, 1” diameter circular wire? Answer: 1000 kcmil (kilo circular mils) • Because conductors are stranded, the equivalent radius must be provided by the manufacturer. In tables this value is known as the GMR and is usually expressed in feet. 20 Line Resistance Line resistance per unit length is given by R = where is the resistivity A Resistivity of Copper = 1.68 10-8 Ω-m Resistivity of Aluminum = 2.65 10-8 Ω-m Example: What is the resistance in Ω / mile of a 1" diameter solid aluminum wire (at dc)? 2.65 10-8 Ω-m m R 1609 0.084 2 mile mile 0.0127m 21 Line Resistance, cont’d • Because ac current tends to flow towards the surface of a conductor, the resistance of a line at 60 Hz is slightly higher than at dc. • Resistivity and hence line resistance increase as conductor temperature increases (changes is about 10% between 25C and 50C, 0.4% per degree C) • Because ACSR conductors are stranded, actual resistance, inductance and capacitance needs to be determined from tables. 22 Variation in Line Resistance Example 23 345 kV+ Transmission Growth at a Glance 24 345 kV+ Transmission Growth at a Glance 25 345 kV+ Transmission Growth at a Glance 26 345 kV+ Transmission Growth at a Glance 27 345 kV+ Transmission Growth at a Glance 28 Ameren Illinois Rivers 345 kV Project • Ameren is in the process of building a number of 345 kV transmission lines across Central Illinois. • Locally this includes a line between Sidney and Rising in Champaign County http://www.ilriverstransmission.com/maps 29 Sidney to Bunsonville 345 kV 30 Sidney to Kansas (IL) 345 31 Sidney to Rising 345 kV 32 Champaign-Urbana Part of Grid Additional Transmission Topics • Multi-circuit lines: Multiple lines often share a common transmission right-of-way. This DOES cause mutual inductance and capacitance, but is often ignored in system analysis. • Cables: There are about 3000 miles of underground ac cables in U.S. Cables are primarily used in urban areas. In a cable the conductors are tightly spaced, (< 1ft) with oil impregnated paper commonly used to provide insulation – – inductance is lower capacitance is higher, limiting cable length 34 Additional Transmission Topics • Ground wires: Transmission lines are usually protected from lightning strikes with a ground wire. This topmost wire (or wires) helps to attenuate the transient voltages/currents that arise during a lighting strike. The ground wire is typically grounded at each pole. • Corona discharge: Due to high electric fields around lines, the air molecules become ionized. This causes a crackling sound and may cause the line to glow! 35 Additional Transmission Topics • Shunt conductance: Usually ignored. A small current may flow through contaminants on insulators. • DC Transmission: Because of the large fixed cost necessary to convert ac to dc and then back to ac, dc transmission is only practical for several specialized applications – – – long distance overhead power transfer (> 400 miles) long cable power transfer such as underwater providing an asynchronous means of joining different power systems (such as the Eastern and Western grids). 36 HVDC Lines in North America http://www.grainbeltexpresscleanline.com/site/page/history_of_hvdc_transmission 37
