The single phase rectifier consisting of three thyristors $$T_1,T_2,T_3$$ and a diode $$D_1$$ feed power to a 10 A constant current load. $$T_1$$ and $$T_3$$ are fired at $$\alpha=60^\circ$$ and $$T_2$$ is fired at $$\alpha=240^\circ$$. The reference for $$\alpha$$ is the positive zero crossing of $$V_{in}$$. The average voltage $$V_0$$ across the load in volts is __________ (Round off to 2 decimal places).
For the three-bus power system shown in the figure, the trip signals to the circuit breakers B$$_1$$ to B$$_9$$ are provided by overcurrent relays R$$_1$$ to R$$_9$$, respectively, some of which have directional properties also. The necessary condition for the system to be protected for short circuit fault at any part of the system between bus 1 and the R-L loads with isolation of minimum portion of the network using minimum number of directional relays is
The expressions of fuel cost of two thermal generating units as a function of the respective power generation $${P_{G1}}$$ and $${P_{G2}}$$ are given as
$$\matrix{ {{F_1}({P_{G1}}) = 0.1aP_{G1}^2 + 40{P_{G1}} + 120\,Rs/hour} & {0\,MW \le {P_{G1}} \le 350\,MW} \cr {{F_2}({P_{G2}}) = 0.2P_{G2}^2 + 30{P_{G2}} + 100\,Rs/hour} & {0\,MW \le {P_{G2}} \le 300\,MW} \cr } $$
where $$a$$ is a constant. For a given value of $$a$$, optimal dispatch requires the total load of 290 MW to be shared as $${P_{G1}} = 175\,MW$$ and $${P_{G2}} = 115\,MW$$. With the load remaining unchanged, the value of $$a$$ is increased by 10% and optimal dispatch is carried out. The changes in $${P_{G1}}$$ and the total cost of generation, $$F( = {F_1} + {F_2})$$ in Rs/hour will be as follows
The bus admittance ($$Y_{bus}$$) matrix of a 3-bus power system is given below.
