Q5. A 3-phase, 50 Hz , 100 Km transmission line has conductors composed of 12 strands of Aluminum wound around a core of 7 steel strands. Each of the aluminum and steel strands has a diameter of 0.28 cm. The resistivity and T constant for the aluminum are given by 2.85 ×10° N m at 20 C, and 228 respectively. The steel strands carry no current due to the skin effect. If the line conductors are placed at corners of an equilateral triangle of 2 m a side. Determine : 1- The conductor resistance per Km of the line at 40° C 2- The line inductance and capacitance. 3- The voltage and current at the sending end, if the receiving end voltage is 132 KV .

Question
Q5. A 3-phase, 50 Hz, 100 Km transmission line has conductors
composed of 12 strands of Aluminum wound around a core of 7
steel strands . Each of the aluminum and steel strands has a
diameter of 0.28 cm. The resistivity and T constant for the
aluminum are given by 2.85x10 2 m at 20° C, and 228
respectively. The steel strands carry no current due to the skin
effect. If the line conductors are placed at corners of an cquilateral
triangle of 2 m a side. Determine :
1- The conductor resistance per Km of the line at 40" C
2- The line inductance and capacitance.
3- The voltage and current at the sending end, if the receiving end
voltage is 132 KV.
