    NCEES #524

    This solution that NCEES has been bugging, so I approached it from an another angle to see if I would get the same answer. Let me know what you think. Let's say No Load, 460 =X and 1/2 Load, 2370 =A. We know that A-X = Copper losses and the equation for Copper losses is I^2R. So we have...

    Coasting all the way to Friday

    For me, it's quick review of transmission lines and then practice, practice reading. Practice reading slowly, completely, and thoroughly...I tend to jump the gun when reading the questions. Practice, practice :) Good luck everyone!!

    NCEES #519 Power

    What part does the capacitor play in the current waveform?

    NCEES Prob. # 514

    Please correct if I'm wrong, I found a formula for Ia1 to read V / (Z1 + (Z2//Z0)). The diagram shows the Z1 is in series with Z2 in parallel with Z0. This makes a world of a difference. Please advise - I'm struggling with these types of problems too. Thanks!

    Problem 540 NCEES

    Thank you for the reply! So I understand, in other words, the MVAsc, M is added because it "feeds" into the other side of the bus, as if it was parallel to (MVAsc,G //MVAsc,T)? On more question, is there ever a case where the MVAsc's are subtracted? Thanks again!

    Problem 540 NCEES

    Just out of curiosity, what would be the case if there was a load(motor) provided in the info? How would the MVA method differ? Thanks for your time!

    problem # 513 ncees power

    Why are the MVAsc's calculated in parallel? And if following this logic, would parallel MVA's be calculated in as series MVAsc? Please advice...I'm not very familiar with this method...it does look quicker. Thanks!
