600= at 450 MW
and maximum incremental cost for generator B

800= at 400 MW
minimum incremental cost for generator B

650= at 150 MW
a Maximim incremental cost of generation A is less than the minimum incremental
constant of generator B. So generator A operate at its maximum load 450= MW
for optimum generation.

(C) The power sharing between the ac line and the HVDC link can be changed by
controlling the HDVC converters alone.
(D) The directions of power flow in the HVDC link (Pdc) cannot be reversed
SOL 1.5 Here power sharing between the AC line and HVDC link can be changed by
controlling the HVDC converter alone because before changing only grid angle we
can change the power sharing between the AC line and HVDC link.
Hence (C) is correct option.

sub-conductors placed at the corners of an equilateral triangle as shown in the

assume that spacing between sub-conductors is much larger than their radius, the

MCQ 1.30 Consider a synchronous generator connected to an infinite bus by two identical
parallel transmission line. The transient reactance ‘x’ of the generator is 0.1 pu
and the mechanical power input to it is constant at 1.0 pu. Due to some previous
disturbance, the rotor angle (
δ) is undergoing an undamped oscillation, with the
maximum value of ()tδ equal to 130

.One of the parallel lines trip due to the
relay maloperation at an instant when ()t130δ=

MCQ 1.32 Consider the two power systems shown in figure A below, which are initially not
interconnected, and are operating in steady state at the same frequency. Separate
load flow solutions are computed individually of the two systems, corresponding to
this scenario. The bus voltage phasors so obtain are indicated on figure A.
These two isolated systems are now interconnected by a short transmission line as
shown in figure B, and it is found that
PPQQ 012 1 2=== =.
The bus voltage phase angular difference between generator bus X and generator
bus Y after interconnection is
