Sol:

From the above diagram choppers shown are

switches these are self commutated by the

feed back diodes shown as D1, D3, D4, D2.

For duty ratio greater than 0.5 voltage is

‘ve’ and for < 0.5, voltage is ‘+ve’

Here operated means corresponding switch

is get ON and OFF in that period

When < 0.5

First quadrant operation

CH4 and CH1 is ON: so current flows

through Vs – CH1 – La – E – CH4 - VS

So V0 is +ve, I0 is +ve

When CH1 is turned off, positive current

free wheels through CH4, D2. In this manner

both V0, I0 can be controlled.

Second Quadrant operation

Here CH2 operated and CH1, CH3 and CH4

are kept off, with CH2 ON, reverse (or

negative) current flows through La, CH2, D4

and E. Inductance La stores energy during

the time CH2 ON.

In this time La stores energy then the load

voltage (V0 = E +dt

diL ) > VS

When CH4 is turned off ‘V0’ will turn on

diode D1, D4 then the current is fed back to

source through D1, D4 as load ‘V0 is +ve and

I0 is negative.

When > 0.5 (V0 is negative)

Third Quadarant operation: (V0 is ve, I0

is ve). CH1 is kept off, CH2 is kept ON and

CH3 is operated. Polarity of load emf ‘E’

must be reversed for this Quadarant working

V0 = E0 + I0R

When CH3 ON, load gets connected to

source ‘VS’ so V0 I0 are negative leading to

third Quadarant operation. When CH3 is

turned off. load voltage turn on diode D4.

Load current free wheels through CH2, D4

Fourth Quadrant operation: (V0 ’Ve’, I0

‘+ ve’)

Here CH4 is operated and other devices kept

off. Load emf ‘E’ must have its polarity

reversed. When CH4 ON positive current

flows through CH4, D2, La and E.

Inductance La stores energy during this

period.

This energy will turn on diodes D2, D3 when

CH4 turned off. So that current is fed back

to source through D2, D3. Also power is fed

back from load to source.

Sol: When source voltage is dc ,since the series

motors have very high starting torques, they

are best suited for traction drives. The below

figure(a) shows the basic chopper circuit for

the control of a dc series motor. Here also

one can employ fixed frequency TRC (or)

variable frequency TRC.

The voltage and current wave forms shown

in below figure

During ON-time of the chopper, the

supply voltage Vdc , applied to the

motor.

During OFF-period, of the chopper, no

voltage is applied to the motor.

The main problem in the analysis of a

chopper-controlled series motor araises due

to the nonlinear relationship between

armature induced voltage and armature

current because of saturation in the

magnetisizing characteristic.

The analysis of series motor for TRC is now

carried out by making the following

assumptions.

Sol: String efficiency: It is a measure of the

utilization of material in the string and is

defined as

conductorpowerthenearunittheacrossvoltagen

stringtheacrossvoltage

Let ‘V’ be the operating voltage and V1, V2

are the voltage drops across the units

starting from the cross arm towards the

power conductor.

Arcing Horns:

Arcing horns are used to protect the

insulators from voltage surges.

These are the projecting conductors which

are arranged across the surface of the

insulator to be protected during flashover.

These are generally arranged on paired on

either side of the insulator strings of

overhead lines and bushings of the

transformer, then the length of the string is

increases. The larger the number of insulator

units, the longer will be the string, the

voltage distribution across various insulator

units will be non-uniform. A uniform

distribution of voltage across the insulator

units of a string can be obtained by

providing a large metal ring called the guard

ring connected to the metal work at the

bottom of the unit.

The guard ring, when used a long with the

arcing horn fixed at the top end of the string

which will improve the string efficiency.

03. (b) (i)

Sol: Advantages of Digital Techniques:

1-Improved performance:

Relay performances can be seen from

different perspectives. Some of these

important aspects are;

More complex and hence improved

signal processing.

Higher selectivity and accuracy leading.

Improved security and availability

through self-monitoring.

Shorter response time.

Faster and more accurate localization of

faults.

Greater flexibility due to the fact that

functionality is determined by software

rather than hardware.

Less different parts simplified

maintenance and spare parts

managements.

2-Long-Term Stability:

Long-term stability of the equipment

influences maintenance and routine testing

and therefore strongly reduces the total

lifetime cost for that equipment. Digital

protection and control systems offer the

following advantages;

No, or only very few adjustment points

within the equipment.

Performance largely unaffected by

component aging.

Possibility of automatic calibration and

adjustment.

Abnormality can be detected by self-

monitoring, reducing risk for

malfunction.

Higher availability.

3-Security and Availability: Protection

relays based digital techniques can fully

utilize self-monitoring and self-diagnosis

elements with approximately 5-10% of the

processing power. As a gain, both the

availability and security are increased at the

same time.

: 13 : ESE MAINS

ACE Engineering Academy Hyderabad|Delhi|Bhopal|Pune|Bhubaneswar| Lucknow|Patna|Bengaluru|Chennai|Vijayawada|Vizag|Tirupati|Kukatpally |Kolkata

The availability increases as all major

functional units are tested periodically and

in short intervals.

4-Supplementary and/or associated

functions: One of the important aspects of

the supplementary and/or associated

functions is communication. It is to simplify

monitoring the entire system and to utilize

stored information and capabilities.

In case of disturbance, fault location and

trouble shooting can be simplified much

easier and in a shorter time if information

about the operation of the individual

protection and control devices is available in

time.

5-Cost: All other things being equal, the

cost of a relay is the main consideration in

its acceptability. Over the years, the cost of

digital computers has steadily declined, at

the same time their computational power has

increased substantially. The cost of the

analog relays has steadily increased over the

same period mainly because of some design

improvements. It is estimated that the cost of

the most sophisticate digital relays with all

its abilities and features including software

costs, would be the same as that of analog

relay or even cheaper.

05. (a) (i)

Sol: Advantages of HVDC transmission

(i) The line construction is simpler,

cheaper.

(ii) Power per conductor is more and also

power per circuit is same

(iii) The charging current is totally absent.

So that the length of HVDC

transmission line is not limited.

(iv) No skin effect in HVDC line. As a

merit of this, conductor cross-section is

fully utilized.

(v) HVDC line operates at unity power

factor and charging currents are absent

therefore no reactive power

compensation is required.

(vi) Less corona loss and radio interference

because frequency is zero in case of

D.C.

(vii) The level of switching surges due to

DC is lower as compared to AC and

hence, the same size of conductors

and string insulators can be used for

higher operating voltages.

(viii)No stability problem in HVDC.

Operational problems of HVDC

Transmission:

(i) The converters required at both ends of

the HVDC line more expensive and

these converters have very little

overload capacity and they absorb

reactive power which must be supplied

locally

(ii) The converters produce lot of

harmonics DC and AC sides which

may cause interference with audio-

frequency communication lines.

(iii) Voltage transformation is not easier in

case of DC.

(iv) Circuit breaking for multi-terminal is

difficult.

05. (a) (ii)

Sol: The voltage boost due to a shunt capacitor is

distributed over the transmission line where

as the change in voltages between the two

ends of the series capacitor where it is

connected, is sudden.

Let 1cQ be the reactive power of the shunt

capacitor, V be the receiving end voltage

and X be the reactance of the line. The

current through the capacitor will be

V

Q1c

and the drop due to this current in hv line

will be

V

Q1c X.

Similarly let Qc be the reactive power of the

series capacitor, I be the line current and

sin be the sine of the power factor angle of

the load. The voltage drop across the series

: 19 : ESE MAINS

ACE Engineering Academy Hyderabad|Delhi|Bhopal|Pune|Bhubaneswar| Lucknow|Patna|Bengaluru|Chennai|Vijayawada|Vizag|Tirupati|Kukatpally |Kolkata

capacitor will be

I

Qc sin , since the

magnitude of the voltage across the

capacitor is

I

Qc .

For a typical load with p.f 0.8 lag,

sin r = 0.6 and assumeV

IX = 0.1

For equality of voltage boost with both

shunt and series capacitors.

= 6.

It is evident that for same voltage boost,

reactive power capacity of a shunt capacitor

is greater than that of a series capacitor.

Therefore, the shunt capacitor improves the

p.f. of the load where as the series capacitor

has little effect on the p.f.

05. (a) (iii)

Sol: Let the over head transmission line is

connected through the cable of surge

impedances are Z1,Z2 respectively. When a

wave travels over the line and enters the

cable, then it suffers reflection and

refraction at the junction ‘x’.

Let V and I are the Incident voltage and

current waves. 11 IandV are the reflected

voltage and current waves, 1111 IandV are

the transmitted voltage and current waves

respectively.

Refracted or transmitted wave

= Incident wave + Reflected wave
