A three phase thyristor bridge rectifier is used in a $$HVDC$$ link. The firing angle $$\alpha $$ (as measured from the point of natural commutation) is constrained to lie between $${5^ \circ }$$ and $${30^ \circ }$$. If the $$dc$$ side current and $$ac$$ side voltage magnitude are constant, which of the following statements is true (neglect harmonics in the $$ac$$ side current and commutation overlap in your analysis)

A synchronous generator is to be connected to an infinite bus through a transmission line of reactance X = 0.2 pu, as shown in figure the generator data is as follows:

X¹ = 0.1 pu, E¹ = 1.0 pu, H = 5 MJ/MVA, mechanical power P_m = 0.0 pu, $$\omega $$_B = 2 $$\pi \times $$50 rad/sec. All quantities are expressed on a common base.

The generator is initially running on open circuit with the frequency of the open circuit voltage slightly higher than that of the infinite bus. If at the instant of switch closure $$\delta = 0$$ and $$\omega = {{d\delta } \over {dt}} = {\omega _{init}},$$ compute the maximum value of $${\omega _{init}}$$ so that the generator pulls into synchronism.

$$\int {\left( {{{2H} \over {{\omega _B}}}} \right)\omega d\omega + {P_e}d\delta = 0} $$

Two transposed $$3$$ phase lines run parallel to each other. The equation describing the voltage drop in both lines is given below.

Compute the self and mutual zero sequence impedances of this system i.e, compute $${Z_{011}},\,\,{Z_{012}},\,\,{Z_{021}},\,\,{Z_{022}}\,\,\,$$ in the following equations.
$$\Delta {V_{01}} = {Z_{011}}\,{{\rm I}_{01}} + {Z_{012}}\,{{\rm I}_{02}}$$
$$\Delta {V_{02}} = {Z_{021}}\,{{\rm I}_{01}} + {Z_{022}}\,{{\rm I}_{02}}\,\,$$ where $$\,\Delta {V_{01}},$$
$$\Delta {V_{02}},\,{{\rm I}_{01}},\,{{\rm I}_{02}}\,\,$$ are the zero sequence voltage drops and currents for the two lines respectively.

A power system consists of 2 areas (Area 1 and Area 2) connected by a single tie line (figure). It is required to carry out a load flow study on this system. While entering the network data, the tie-line data (connectivity and parameters) is inadvertently left out. If the load flow program is run with this incomplete data.
