Explanation:

Given that a simple power system consists of a dc generator connected to a load center via a transmission line. The load power is 100 kW. The transmission line is 100 km copper wire of 3 cm diameter. If the voltage at the load side is 400 V,

Let first calculate the resistance in the wire.

The resistivity (rho) of a copper wire is 1.673×10^-8 ohm metres

Resistance R =( L× rho)/A

Where Area = πr^2 = π × 0.015^2

Area = 0.00071 m^2

R = (100000 × 1.673×10^-8) / 0.00071

Resistance in wire = 2.367 ohms

Then let calculate the resistance in the load.

Also, since Power P = V^2 /R

Make R the subject of formula

R = V^2/ P

R = 400^2/100000

Resistance in load = 1.6 Ohms

Current l = V / R

I = 400/1.6 = 250 Ampere

a.) Voltage drop across the line V line will be achieved by using Ohms law.

V = I R

V = 250 × 2.367

V = 591.7 v

B.) Voltage at the source side Vsource will be

V = V line + V load

V = 400 + 591.7

V = 991.7 v

C.) Percentage of the voltage drop Vline /Vsource

591.7/991.7 × 100 = 59.7%

D.) Line losses

P = I V

P = 250 × 591.7

P = 147925 W

Power loss = 147925 - 100000

Power loss = 47,925 W

Power loss = 47.9 Kw

E.) Power delivered by the source

P = IV

P = 250 × 991.7 = 247925 W

F.) System efficiency

Efficiency = power line / power source × 100

Efficiency = 147925 / 247925 × 100

Efficiency = 59.7 %
