Lecture (1) - EPM352-Introduction, and Concept of Symmetrical Components.
1- Introduction
For a system of three phasors, three different types of symmetry are possible:
Three phasors equal in magnitude with phase shift equal 120o and have
sequences opposite with the original sequences (a,b,c - a2, c2, b2)
From the above analysis the three phase quantities are equals
Va = Va1 + Va2 + Va0 (1)
a = 1 1200 ,
a2 = 1 2400 ,
a3 =1,
a4 =a,
1+a+a2 =0,
a *= a 2,
(a2)*=a.
we can express “a” and “a2” in cartesian co-ordinates as:
a = -0.5 + j0.866, a2 = -0.5 - j0.866
From (+ ve) Sequence
Vb1 = a2 Va1 , Vc1 = a Va1
From (- ve) Sequence
Vb2 = a Va2 , Vc2 = a2 Va2
From (Zero) sequence
Va0 = Vb0 = Vc0
Then equations (5-1), (5-2) and (5-3) becomes;
Va = Va1 + Va2 + Vao (4)
Multiplying equation (5) in “a“ and equation (6) in “a2“ and summing the resultant
with equation (4), we get on:
3V a1 = Va + aVb + a 2Vc
1
Va1 = (Va + aVb + a 2Vc ) (8)
3
Multiplying equation (5) in “a2 “ and equation (6) in “a” and summing the resultant
with equation (4), we obtain on:
3Va 2 = Va + a 2Vb + aVc
1
Va 2 = (Va + a 2Vb + aVc ) (9)
