QUESTIONS IN BLUE : PARALLEL A

QUESTIONS IN GREEN : PARALLEL B

1. Mid-point of the secondaries of a bank of 4000/440 V Transformers are used to provided a lower voltaje,
as shown in the diagram. Find (a) the voltaje of the bus-bars a b c, and (b) the current in the transformer
secondaries when currents of 100 A at unity power factor are taken from each of the two sets of low-voltaje
bus-bars, a b c and A B C.

2. A 100 HP induction motor has power factor 0.9 and efficiency 0.85 at full load, power factor 0.7 and
efficiency 0.8 at half load. At no load the current is 30% of the full-load currente and power factor 0.14.
Capacitors are supplied a make the line power factor 0.85 at half load. With these capacitors in circuit, find
the line power factor at (a) full load, (b) no load.
3. Two 500-ohms resistances and a condenser are jorned in star to a 400-V, 3-phase, 50 c/s supply. State the
phase rotation, and find the capacitance and equivalent series resistance of the condenser if el voltajes across
the resistances connected to the phase R and phase T are 400 V and 300 V respectively.
4. A Factory is supplied froma 3-phase, 4-wire, 400 V, simmetrical system. The resistance of each line is 0.4
Ωand of the neutral 0.6 Ω. The power input to the main is as follows: 10 KVA at a laggin poer factor ofd
0.7 to phase R, 10 KVA at a leading power factor of 0.7 to phase S, and 10 KVA at unity power factor to
phase T. Calculate the current in the neutral wire and the voltaje between line R and the neutral at the
Factory. Phase secuence RST.
5. A 3-phase, overhead line has resistance and reactance of 6 and 20 Ωrepetively per phase. The sending-end
voltaje is 66 KV while the receiving-end voltaje is maintained at 66 KV by a synchronous phase-modifier.
Determine the KVAR od the modifier when the load at the receiving-end is 75 MW at power factor 0.8
lagging, also the maximun load that can be transmitted.
6. A 3-phase, overhead line has resistance and ractance per phase of 5 and 20 Ω respectively. The load at the
receiving end is 25 000 KW, 33 KV, power factor 0.8 lagging. Find the voltaje at the sending end. If a
synchronous phase modifier is inserted at the receiving end and the voltaje at both ends of the line
maintained at 33 KV, find the KVAR of the modifier when the load is 25 000 KW at power factor 0.8
lagging. Find also the maximum load that can be transmitted.

Each answer to the three parallel questions must contain:

 One-line or three-line diagram, depending on the question.
 Representative phasor diagram.
 Any additional analysis must be conceptually justified.
