Answer any Five questions

All questions carry equal marks
---

1.a) Derive expression for economic distribution of bad between generating units
considering the effect of transmission losses.
b) Consider two steam power plants operating with incremental production costs
dc1 ( p1 )
= (0.08 P1 + 16) Rs / Mwhr and
dp1
dc2 ( p2 )
= (0.08 P2 + 12) Rs / Mwhr
dp2
Given the loss coefficients=
B11 = 0.001 Per MW: B12 = B21 =-0.0005 per MW
B22 = 0.0024 Per MW.
Find the economic schedule for the generation of λ = 20 Rs / Mwh

2.a) What are the assumptions made in deriving transmission loss coefficients?
Enumerate them.
b) What is a penalty factor is economic scheduling explain the significance.

3.a) Explain hydro thermal economic load scheduling derive the necessary equations.
b) What is ‘a tie line? Explain

4.a) What are the advantages of inter connected operation of power systems? Explain.
b) Two inter connected control areas have the follow characteristics.
Area 1 R1=0.01Pµ D1=0.08P.µ Base MUA=500
Area 2 R3=0.02Pµ D2-=1.0P.µ Base MUA=1000
A load change of 100MW occurs is area1. Determine the new steady state
frequency and tie line power derivation.

5.a) Sketch and explain the block schematic of a two-area system

b) Two power stations a and B operate is parallel. They are inter connected by a
shot transmission line the station capacities are 100Mw and 200MW respectively
the generators at A and B have speed regulator 3% and 2% respectively. Calculate
each station and load on the inter connection if
i) The load an each station is 125 MW
ii) The loads an respective bus bars are 60M ward 190M
iii) The load is 150Mw at the station a busbar only.
