A long lossless transmission line has a unity power factor (UPF) load at the receiving end and an ac voltage source at the sending end. The parameters of the transmission line are as follows:
Characteristic impedance $${Z_c} = 400\Omega ,\,\,$$, propagation constant $$\,\beta = 1.2 \times {10^{ - 3}}\,\,rad/km,\,\,$$ and length $$\,l = 100\,km.\,\,$$ The equation relating sending and receiving end questions is $${V_s} = {V_r}\,\cosh \,\,\left( {\beta l} \right) + j\,Z{}_c\,\,\sinh \left( {\beta l} \right){{\rm I}_R}$$ Complete the maximum power that can be transferred to the UPF load at the receiving end if $$\left| {{V_s}} \right| = 230\,\,kV.\,\,$$ GATE EE 2002 Power System Analysis - Parameters and Performance of Transmission Lines Question 8 English

A 132 kV transmission line AB is connected to a cable BC. The characteristic impedances of the overhead line and the cable are 400$$\Omega $$ and 80$$\Omega $$ respectively. Assume that these are purely resistive. A 250 kV switching surge travels from A to B.

(a) Calculate the value of this voltage surge when it first reaches C.

(b) Calculate the value of the reflected component of this surge when the first reflection reaches A.
