Description

Block Transmission Line (Three-Phase) It is a three-phase power transmission line according to a U-shaped substitution scheme with concentrated parameters. This model takes into account phase resistance, intrinsic phase inductance, mutual phase inductance, mutual phase resistance, line capacitance, and line ground capacitance.

To simplify the equations defining the block, the Clark transform is used. As a result, the equations take the form:

С

where

  • — resistance of the line section;

  • — mutual phase resistance;

  • — the intrinsic inductance of the line section;

  • — parameter value Mutual inductance;

  • — grounding capacity;

  • — linear capacity of the line section;

  • — the Clark transformation matrix;

  • — Three-phase current through the port ~1;

  • — Three-phase current through port ~2;

  • — three-phase voltage at the port ~1;

  • — three-phase voltage on the port ~2.

The parameters of the forward and zero sequences are determined by the diagonal terms in the transformed equations:

The permutation of these equations yields physical linear quantities in terms of the parameters of the forward and zero sequence.:

The figure shows an equivalent electrical circuit of one section of the line, constructed according to a U-shaped substitution scheme using the Clark transform.

To increase the accuracy, you can use the parameter Number of segments to repeat the U-shaped section N times, resulting in a transmission line model of N segments. A larger number of segments significantly slows down the modeling process.

Propagation speeds

Block Transmission Line (Three-Phase) calculates the propagation velocities of a direct sequence using the following equations:

  • — serial impedance;

  • — bandwidth;

  • — the distribution constant.

  • — the speed of propagation, where .

For the propagation velocity of the zero sequence, the equations are the same, but , , , , , and equal , , , , , and accordingly.
