Figure 1: Power network used in power-flow analysis

Voltage level: Un = 110 kV

Transmission lines: X‘ = 0,38 Ω/km; R‘ = C‘ = G‘ = 0

Short-circuit power at K4: Sk‘‘ = 6 GVA

Generator G2: Sr = 280 MVA; xd‘‘ = 0,14

Transformer T2: Sr = 280 MVA; uk = ux = 0,12

Defined powers at the nodes:

S1 = (210 + j0) MVA S2 = (-240 + j0) MVA S3 = (125 + j0) MVA

Base values: SB = 100 MVA; UB = 110 kV

-Power flow calculation-

a) Draw an equivalent circuit diagram for the power-flow analysis.

b) Determine the elements of the nodal admittance matrix. For this purpose set up the
corresponding equations and then the nodal admittance matrix.

c) The reduced admittance matrix [Yv] can be calculated with a slack node. Identify the
relationship between the complex voltages and currents using the reduced admittance
matrix (numerical values).

d) Perform the first step of the current iteration to calculate the current and determine a
more precise value of voltage u1 at node K1 using a flat start.

The impedance matrix is expressed as

j 14,25 6,25 5,47

= =− 6,25 8,25 7,21
,
100 5,47
7,21 11,25

e) The voltage at node K1 is determined by the power-flow analysis and is expressed as

u1 = (0,9242− j ⋅ 0,2212) pu

Calculate the power input at node K4 in line L14.
