EHV AC Transmission Detailed Syllabus for Power & Energy Systems M.Tech first year first sem is covered here. This gives the details about credits, number of hours and other details along with reference books for the course.

The detailed syllabus for EHV AC Transmission M.Tech 2017-2018 (R17) first year first sem is as follows.

M.Tech. I Year I Sem
Prerequisite: Power Systems -II

Course objectives:

  • To identify the different aspects of Extra High Voltage A.C and D.C Transmission design and Analysis
  • To understand the importance of modern developments of E.H.V and U.H.V transmission systems.
  • To demonstrate EHV ac transmission system components, protection and insulation level for over voltages.

Course Outcomes: Upon the completion of the subject, the student will be able to

  • List the necessity of EHV AC transmission, choice of voltage for transmission, line losses and power handling capability.
  • Estimate the Statistical procedures for line designs, scientific and engineering principles in power systems.
  • Construct commercial transmission system.

UNIT- I: E.H.V.A.C. Transmission line trends and preliminary aspect standard transmission voltages – Estimation at line and ground parameters-Bundle conductor systems-Inductance and Capacitance of E.H.V. lines – positive, negative and zero sequence impedance – Line Parameters for Modes of Propagation.

UNIT- II: Electrostatic field and voltage gradients – calculations of electrostatic field of AC lines – effect of high electrostatic field on biological organisms and human beings – surface voltage gradients and maximum gradients of actual transmission lines – voltage gradients on sub conductor.

UNIT- III: Electrostatic induction in unenergized lines – measurement of field and voltage gradients for three phase single and double circuit lines – un energized lines. Power Frequency Voltage control and over-voltages in EHV lines: No load voltage – charging currents at power frequency-voltage control – shunt and series compensation – static VAR compensation.

UNIT – IV: Corona in E.H.V. lines – Corona loss formulae- attention of traveling waves due to Corona – Audio noise due to Corona, its generation, characteristic and limits. Measurements of audio noise radio interference due to Corona – properties of radio noise – frequency spectrum of RI fields – Measurements of RI and RIV.

UNIT- V: Design of EHV lines based on steady state and transient limits – EHV cables and their characteristics.
