Question

Statement:
For a power system the admittance and impedance matrices for the fault studies are follows.

Ybus=j8.75j1.25j2.50j1.25j6.25j2.50j2.50j2.50j5.00

Zbus=j0.16j0.08j0.12j0.08j0.24j0.16j0.12j0.16j0.34

The pre-fault voltages are 1.0 p.u. at all the buses.
The system was unloaded prior to the fault. A solid 3 phase fault takes place at bus 2.

Q: The post fault voltages at buses 1 and 3 in per unit respectively are

A
0.24, 0.63

Solution

The correct option is D 0.67, 0.33
Pre fault VBUS=⎢ ⎢V01V02V03⎥ ⎥=101010

Fault current=If=V0rZrr+Zf
Solid 3ϕ fault occurs at bus 2, r = 2 and

ZF=0

Zrr=Z22=j0.24,

V0r=V01=10

If=V02Z22+Zf=10j0.24+0=j4.167p.u.

Post fault voltage at bus i is given by
Vfi=V0iZirIf

Post fault voltage at bus, i=1

Vf1=V01Z12If

=10j0.08×(j4.167)

=0.67p.u.

Post fault voltage at bus , i = 3
Vf3=V03Z32If

=10j0.16×(j4.167)=0.33p.u.
