Power System Basics

All power systems have three major components: Generation, Load and Transmission. Generation: Creates electric power. Load: Consumes electric power. Transmission: Transmits electric power from generation to load.

Transmission

Goal is to move electric power from generation to load with as low of losses and cost as possible. P V I or P/V I Losses are 3*I2 R (for three phase) Less losses at higher voltages, but more costly to construct and insulate.

Transmission and Distribution

Typical high voltage transmission voltages are 500, 345, 230, 161, 138 and 69 kV. Transmission tends to be a grid system, so each bus is supplied from two or more directions. Lower voltage lines are used for distribution, with a typical voltages of 13.8, 11 and 6.6 kV.

Loads

Can range in size from less than a single watt to 10s of MW. Loads are usually aggregated. The aggregate load changes with time, with strong daily, weekly and seasonal cycles.

Single-line Diagram

Most power systems are balanced three phase systems. A balanced three phase system can be modeled as a single (or one) line. Single-lines show the major power system components, such as generators, loads, transmission lines. Components join together at a bus.

Power Balance Constraints

Power flow refers to how the power is moving through the system. At all times the total power flowing into any bus MUST be zero! This is know as Kirchhoffs law. And it can not be repealed or modified. Power is lost in the transmission system.
25

10:52 AM

Basic Power Control

Opening a circuit breaker causes the power flow to instantaneously(nearly) change. No other way to directly control power flow in a transmission line. By changing generation we can indirectly change this flow.

10:52 AM

26

Transmission Line Limits

Power flow in transmission line is limited by a number of considerations. Losses (I2 R) can heat up the line, causing it to sag. This gives line an upper thermal limit. Thermal limits depend upon ambient conditions. Many utilities use winter/summer limits.

Reactive Power

Reactive power is supplied by:

generators capacitors transmission lines loads loads transmission lines and transformers

Reactive power is consumed by

10:52 AM

Voltage Magnitude

Power systems must supply electric power within a narrow voltage range, typically with 5% of a nominal value. For example, wall outlet should supply 120 volts, with an acceptable range from 114 to 126 volts. Voltage regulation is a vital part of system operations.
30

10:52 AM

Reactive Power and Voltage

Reactive power and voltage magnitude are tightly coupled. Greater reactive demand decreases the bus voltage, while reactive generation increases the bus voltage.

10:52 AM

31

Voltage Regulation

A number of different types of devices participate in system voltage regulation

generators: reactive power output is automatically changed to keep terminal voltage within range. capacitors: switched either manually or automatically to keep the voltage within a range. Load-tap-changing (LTC) transformers: vary their offnominal tap ratio to keep a voltage within a specified range.

History of power system (war of current)

Nikola Tesla and Thomas Edison became enemies due to Edison's promotion of direct current (DC) for electric power distribution over the alternating current (AC) advocated by Tesla. Which system you think is better and why?
