Analysis and Simulation of High Voltage Alternating Current Connectivity of Afam-Bonny Island
Subject area: Science,Engineering and Technology · Area of research: Electrical Engineering
Abstract
The analysis and simulation of the actual equipment performance on high voltage alternating current connectivity of Bonny Island through Bodo-Ogoni to Afam independent power project (IPP), Rivers State, Nigeria. Necessary data on power transformers and the route length of the network was considered, the determination of the transformer current, the transformer loading, the active power, the reactive power, the apparent power, the complex power, the power factor and the phase voltage on each transformer on the network. Determine the Bus bar current, the cable size, conductor resistance, the cross sectional area of the conductor, the voltage drop on each Buses, and the resistance of line per Kilometre were also determined. Voltage stability technique was use in the implementation of the network. Electrical transient analyzer program (ETAP 19.0.1) simulation software was used in designing the network. Apply Newton-Raphson method was utilized for the achievement of the optimal load flow of the network.
Keywords
Bus bar, Conductor, Electrical Transient Analyzer Program (ETAP) Software, power transformers and Voltage stability technique.
