Hello everyone,

I want to validate my calculation of pu transformation for a load flow
case which is a case of 30 wind turbines : in fact ,  i consider the
turbines like PQ nodes ( P= nominal power of each turbine = 3 MW and Q = 0
) i calculate r  x  b between the branches of cables with these equations:

𝑥  = 2𝜋𝑓. 𝑙. 𝑑 /
𝑏𝑎𝑠𝑒
𝑖𝑚𝑝𝑒𝑑𝑎𝑛𝑐𝑒
𝑏= 2𝜋𝑓. 𝐶.
𝑏𝑎𝑠𝑒
𝑖𝑚𝑝𝑒𝑑𝑎𝑛𝑐𝑒
𝑟= R.  𝑑 / 𝑏𝑎𝑠𝑒
𝑖𝑚𝑝𝑒𝑑𝑎𝑛𝑐𝑒

Where :

d is the cable length in km , L : inductance (H/km), C (F/km) , R(ohm/km)
𝑏𝑎𝑠𝑒
𝑖𝑚𝑝𝑒𝑑𝑎𝑛𝑐𝑒
=
(𝑏𝑎𝑠𝑒𝑣𝑜𝑙𝑡𝑎𝑔𝑒
)^2
/𝑏𝑎𝑠𝑒𝑝𝑜𝑤𝑒𝑟
 The base power for my case is =  30 * 3 = 90 MVA
Question 1 :
Is my equations for calculation x , b, and r are correct ? (i found in
some documents that  b= 2𝜋𝑓. 𝐶.
𝑏𝑎𝑠𝑒
𝑖𝑚𝑝𝑒𝑑𝑎𝑛𝑐𝑒/2
(divison by 2) ) which is the correct equation for b ?

All the turbines are connected after that with a commun transformer (
tranform 33 kv to 132 kv) so my problem here is how to modelize the
transformer. In fact , i found two ways to do that :
1/ by consider only the r and x of the transformer and to put b=0 with a
ratio = 1 ( no no additional transformation)
2/ by consider the transformer like a a cable model with r,x and b so the
ratio = 0

I tried the two ways for the case of 30 turbines and it gives me almost
the same results, but i’m not sure that gives the same for other cases.
Question 2:
Can anyone please validates my approach, which is the approriate way to
modelize the transformer ?
