Introduction Herein are solutions to problems for each of the chapters of Electric Power Prin-
ciples: Sources, Conversion, Distribution and Use. I believe them to be correct, but
errors may have crept in. Use them with caution, and please check them before grading
student’s homework!
There are a number of Matlab scripts in an accompanying directory structure. There is a
subdirectory for each chapter of the book for which there are scripts. (Chapters 2, 3, 5, 6
and 8 through 15). (The scripts are named for the chapter and problem, so that ’p6 5.m’is
a script that solves all or part of Problem 5 of Chapter 6. There are some auxiliary scripts
that are required for some problems. They are located in the appropriate subdirectory and
their identity is made clear in the main scripts that use them. The scripts are known to run
under Matlab Version 7.10.0.499 (R2010a).

4. The trick to this ’magic ladder’ problem is to see that the driving point impedance of
a section can be deduced to be 2R and the transfer relationship is defined by a simple
voltage divider to be 21 . This is true for each of the ’cells’ of the ladder network. Thus

5. While this one looks odd (the voltage source controls the voltage across the current
source and the current source controls current through the voltage source, it is a pretty
good approximation of the interface between solar and some wind generators and the
power system. In such situations, the system ’acts like’ a voltage source and the power
electronics of the generators emulates a current source.
Real power is:
1 n o 1
P = V IRe ejψ = cos ψ
2 2
and Imaginary power is:
1 n o 1
Q = V IIm ejψ = sin ψ
2 2
Instantaneous power is, with the voltage phase being zero:
The phasor diagrams corresponding with ψ = 0 and ψ = π2 are shown in Figure 3, and
instantaneous power is plotted for ψ = 0 in Figure 4 and for psi = π2 in Figure 5.

8. Maximum impedance magnitude will occur if the capacitive admittance balances (and
thus cancels) the inductive admittance, so the condition for maximum voltage magnitude

is XC = −j10Ω, or C = 10×2×π×60 ≈ 265µF

With X = 7.54Ω and R = 10Ω, this evaluates to Y = .0455S, so that C = .0455377 ≈ 120µF .
To construct the phasor diagram, start by assuming the output voltage is real (Vr = 120),
Then the capacitance draws current Ic = .0455j × 120 ≈ j × 5.46A. Current through the
inductance is Ix = 12+j5.46, and the voltage across the inductance is Vx = −41+j90.48.
Source voltage is Vs = 78.8 + j90.48, which has magnitude of 120 V (all of this is RMS).
The resulting phasor diagram is shown in Figure 14.
Maximum voltage at the outupt is clearly achieved when ω 2 LC = 1, when C = 351.8µF .

Maximum output voltage is Vr = Vs ωL ≈ 1.33 × 120 ≈ 159V. A plot of relative output
vs. input voltage is shown in Figure 15

2. Voltage magnitude is RI = 500 volts. The voltages across the three phase resistances
are just current times resistance. The voltage across the ground (neutral) resistor is
the resistance times the sum of the three phase currents, which is always either plus or
minus the peak amplitude. The results are shown in Figure 23

The radial clearance gap is, if the gap itself can be considered to be ’small’(for parts (a)

If, on the other hand, the gap is not small, the reluctance is:

The rest is documented in the atlab script p5 3.m. Inductances limited by the radial
gap are:

Part b) L = Rg2 ≈ 2.28mH

With nonzero axial gap, the inductances are L = Ra +Rg1 or L = Ra +Rg2 .
These are plotted in Figure 26.

(a) Star point of the resistors connected to the neutral of the supply, in which case the
currents can be calculated independently and the problem is simple,
(b) Star point of the resistors is unconnected to the neutral of the supply. In this case,
it is straightforward but tedious to convert the wye to a delta, calculate line-line
voltages, obtain current in the legs of the delta, add those to get terminal currents,
transform them across the transformer and add transformer currents together to get
terminal currents on the delta side, and
(c) Star point is grounded through a resistor. This is handled by calculating the
impedance matrix:
Va Ra + Rg Rg Rg ia
Vb Rg Rb + Rg Rg ib
Vc Rg Rg Rc + Rg ic
In principal, this matrix can be inverted to find the currents, since voltages are
known. To check, it is possible to set Rg = 0, in which case the third case should
equal the first case. Or to set Rg to a very large number, in which case the third
case should approach the second case.
The answer for the problem as posed is:

generator and transformer are lumped together to form a reactance of 0.6 per-unit. The
upper line and right-hand part of the lower line are in series with an impedance of three

Current to achieve flux big enough to approach saturation of the magnetic circuit is
shown in Figure 36.
With this figure, you should ’smell a rat’, because the magnetic circuit is very highly
saturated with 10 A at small gaps. The force is limited to about what would be achieved
with 1.8 T, just over 100 Newtons. With that limit, the actual achievable force is shown

is:

The script that calculates this as a function of frequency is p8 10.m. The results are
shown in Figure 39. Not surprisingly, since this is actually a fairly deep slot (compared
with the skin depth), the resistance and reactance are not far from the infinitely deep
case, with R = 201.914µΩ/m and X = 201.919µΩ/m.

Matlab script that p10 10.m solves this problem. The solution proceeds as follows:
First, get the symmetrical component impedance matrix by doing Zs = T Zph T −1 . This
is readily inverted to get the line admittance matrix. Note that in this situation, real
power is P = V1 V2 Y sin δ, where the admittance variable Y is the reactive admittance
(this is a lossless situation) for positive sequence. By inverting that expression
we find
phase angle δ. Then positive sequence current across the line is just Vd = V ejδ − 1 ,
and that is used with the full admittance matrix to find currents. The script is also used
to find real power to confirm that the angle is right. Here is the summary output:

On that base, generator reactance is xg = 100600 × .25 ≈ .042 and transformer reactance

For the line-neutral fault, z1 = z2 = j.314 and z0 = j.412. Total impedance to the

1. Real power flow through the line is P = V1XV2 sin δ = 10
10 sin δ
So maximum power flow is 100 kW.
Since the sine of 30◦ is 1/2, real power flow is 50 kW.
2
Reactive power flow with equal voltage magnitudes is Q = VX (1 − cos δ) and 1−cos30◦ ≈
.134, then reactive power flow is about 13.4 kVAR.
To get 75 kVAR to flow in the line, sin δ = .75 or δ ≈ 48.6◦
2
2. Real power flow in this three-phase line is P = 138
40 sin δ ≈ 476.1 sin δ(MW)
◦
So when δ = 10 , P ≈ 82.7MW
When δ = 30◦ , P ≈ 238MW
100
For 100 MW, δ = sin−1 476.1 ≈ 12.1◦
With that angle, Q = 476.1 (1 − cos 12.1◦ ) ≈ 10.6MVAR
3. If sending and receiving end power are the same, real and reactive power at sending and
receiving ends are:
V2
(P + jQ)S = 1 − ejδ
R − jX
V2
(P + jQ)R = e−jδ−1
R − jX
These are easily evaluated by Matlab script p11 3.m. Note the solution to the problem of
finding the proper power angle for a given receiving end real power is nonlinear, but the
Matlab routine fzero() can be used to solve that problem with an auxiliary function.
The answers are:

For a phase angle of 30◦ ,
V2
P = X sin δ = 238MW
V 2
Q = X (1 − cos δ) = 16.4MVAR
100 V2
To get 100 MW in the line, δ = sin−1 476.1 ≈ 12.125◦ , for which Q = X (1 − cos δ)−Qc ≈
10.6 − 47.4 = −36.8MVAR

kT i
v= log +1
q I0
kT 1.38×10−23 ×299
At 299 K, q = 1.6×10−19 ≈ 25.2mV
For part a, = log(5×1015 ) ≈ 36.15 and for part b, log( Ii0 +1) = log(5×1016 ) ≈

So the answers are: Part a) v = .0252 × 36.15 ≈ .911V and Part b) v = .0252 × 38.45 ≈
.969V.

For the next half cycle the situation is just reversed, with a negative voltage excursion.

Shown in Figure 61 are output voltage and input current for the full wave bridge rectifier.
In Figure 62 are input and output power (neglecting diode forward drop). Plotted on
the same scale, they are the same.
According to the model of Problem 1, forward drop in each of the diodes is about
0.911 volts, leading to about 18 watts total dissipation, distributed over the four diodes
of the bridge.

7. There are actually three important numbers related to the load voltage output from the
three-phase
p rectifier. They are the peak voltage, which is the peak of√line-line voltage:
Vpeak = (2)×480 = 679V , the average load voltage, which is VL = π3 2×480 ≈ 648V ,
√
and the minimum voltage which is Vmin = 480 2 cos π6 ≈ 588V . The actual waveforms
are shown in Figure 63. Current in Phase A is positive whenever Phase A is most positive
and negative when Phase A is most negative. Since there is a large filter reactor on the
DC side, current is constant.
Accouning for commutation reactance, the reactive voltage drop appears to be accounted
for by the fictitious resistor:RX = π3 ωLℓ π3 × 377 × .003 ≈ 1.08Ω. With a load current of
10 A, VL = 648 − 10 × 1.08 ≈ 637.2V Load voltage as a function of current is shown in
Figure 64.

1 π 2 2√
Z
< VL >= Vp sin ωtdωt = Vp = 2 × 120 ≈ 108V

In the single phase rectifier, load voltage is zero during commutation and rate of change
of current in the leakage inductance is:
diL Vp
= sin ωt
dt Lℓ
And since current in the leakage inductance starts at −IL , current at the end of the
commutation interval is
Vp
iL = −IL + (cos ωt − 1))
ωLℓ
The commutation interval tc is then determined by:

Discounting the signs of the harmonics, the first four nonzero harmonics are 5, 7, 11 and

the fifth and seventh harmonics cancel as do the 17th and 19th. Each of two inverters
handles half the current, so the surviving harmonics are of half amplitude, but they add

5. Running light could be calculated by looking at the smallest value of slip, but in the
script the rotor branch is discounted and impedance of the magnetizing and armature
brances was used:
6. Locked rotor conditions involve s = 1, for which the machine impedance can be calcu-
lated and a voltage to achieve specified current is then easy to estimate. The results
are:
7. The trick to estimating machine operation with fixed voltage and frequency is to find
the limiting values of slip at either end. A crude search was made to find those values
of slip. The rest is straightforward and the results are shown in Figure 71
8. This problem asks for multiple torque-speed calculations, and the only thing to remember
about this is to adjust the reactive elements for frequency, but the resistors stay constant.
Note the lower breakdown torques for low frequencies, shown in Figure 72.
9. This problem uses some brute-force computation, but even using an interpreter like
Matlab, computation is not expensive. In this calculation, operational curves similar to
those shown in Figure 72 were estimated for frequencies separated by 1 Hz. Then a search
was made to find two points that bracket the desired torque. Then linear interpolation
was used to approximate operation at the desired torque. Not shown is a curve that
was drawn of torque vs. speed to estimate how well this interpolation worked. Results
for input and output power are shown in Figure 73 and efficiency and power factor are
shown in 74.

10. Matlab script p13 b.m does the calculations for problems 10 and 11. The torque-speed
curve for the motor operating with fixed voltage and frequency is shown in Figure 75
Small correction is required for stray load loss. Once the end points are determined,
getting efficiency and power factor is done over slip. This is shown in Figure 76.
11. Several torque/speed curves for different frequency and voltage levels are calculated by
the same script and shown in Figure 77
And then it is not difficult to generate an idea of operation by sweeping over frequency
and finding the correct power point along each curve. Resulting efficiency and power
factor are shown in Figure 78
12. The winding plan is shown in Figure 79. Note this did not really need to be a ’consequent
pole’ winding since groups with turns of 17, 9 and 8 turns, respectively, could have been
wound around each of four poles.
To find the winding factor, we use the weighted average of the individual coil pitch
factors:
PN γ
k=1 Ns (k) sin( 2 nNc (k))
kwn = PN
k=1 Ns (k)
where N is the total number of coils (6), n is the harmonic number, Nc is the coil throw
for each coil and Ns is the number of turns in each coil.
This evaluates to kw1 = .9720.
Synchronous reactance is:
3 4 Na2 RLkw1
Xs = ωLs ωµ0
2π p2 g
And this evaluates to about 85.5 Ohms.
Peak flux density is found from the voltage expression:

1. Since Va = GΩIf , Ω = 1×1 = 110 radians/second. N = 2π × 110 ≈ 1050.4 RPM.
If torque is 10 N-m, armature current must be Ia = 10 A. Internal voltage is: Eb =
GΩIf = 110 − 10 = 100 V, so that Ω = 100radians/second, or just about 955 RPM.
Power in is about Pmboxin = 110×11 = 1210 Watts while power out is Pout = 100×10 =

2. Back voltage is Eb = 100 2 × 10 = 95V, so that G = 180 ≈ 0.528. Torque is T = GIIf =

3. Back voltage must be Eb = 50,000
100 = 500V, so that resistance is R =
600−500
100 = 1Ω, and
500
motor constant is G = 100×200 = 0.026H

Pout = GΩI 2 = = = 400kW
(R + GΩ)2 .625 + .125

Current is I = .625+.125 = 800A, so

5. If the motor is producing 400 kW, its back voltage must be:
400kW
Eb = GΩI = = 500V
800A
To get speed vs. voltage we must make power converted by the motor equal to power
absorbed by the load:

(R + GΩ)2 Ω0
Matlab script p14 5.m uses the Matlab function fzero() to solve the nonlinear equation
and plot speed vs. voltage (see Figure 83). It also does a check calculation (figure not

At 1,500 RPM, if the machine is on the third segment (If > 2A), V = 270.8 + 12.5If .

13. T = 23 pλ0 I = 1.5 × 2 × 0.4 × 4 = 4.8N-m.
4,000 RPM is 418.9 Radians/second. So PB = 4.8 × 418.9 ≈ 2011W.
At 4,000 RPM, ω = 837.8, so internal voltage is Eb = .4 × 837.5 ≈ 335.1V (peak).
Reactance is X = .05 × 837.8 ≈ 41.9Ω. 4 × 41.9 ≈ 167.6V. Assuming we are driving
the thing for maximum √ torque per unit of current, internal power factor is unity and
terminal voltage is V = 335.12 + 167.62 ≈ 375V (peak).
Note xd = .05×4
.4 = .5, which is less than one, so there will be a zero-torque speed. It is
375
when ω = .05×4 ≈ 1873Radians/s,or about 8944 RPM.

2
Ld I0
d- axis reactance xd =
λ0
Lq I0
q- axis reactance xq =
λ0
per-unit torque te = (1 − (xq − xd ) id ) iq
Then use expressions 15.15 and 15.16 to find id and iq at the rating point (ia = 1). At
the rating point:
ψd = 1 + xd id
ψq = xq iq
Voltages are:
Vd = ω0 λ0 (ra id − ψq )
Vq = ω0 λ0 (rq iq + psid )
q
Voltage is V = Vd2 + Vq2 and input power is Pin = 32 (Vd Id + Vq Iq ).
Output power is Pout = ωp TB te .
All of this has been implemented in Matlab script p15 13.m and the results for the two
