Effect of load characteristics on maximum power transfer limit for HV compensated transmission lines

In this paper a new method for calculating the maximum power transfer limit of high voltage compensated transmission lines is made. The effect of load characteristics as function of voltage and frequency is taken into account. Two schemes using series and shunt compensation are studied and numerical...

Summary:In this paper a new method for calculating the maximum power transfer limit of high voltage compensated transmission lines is made. The effect of load characteristics as function of voltage and frequency is taken into account. Two schemes using series and shunt compensation are studied and numerical results for maximum power transfer limit, critical angular separation and critical voltage are given. These schemes are applied to the existing AC 500 kV transmission line connected between High-Dam and Cairo in Egypt.
