Lossy three‐phase transmission line transient analysis by Park approach

Purpose – To provide a unified analytical tool, based on Park transformation, for the theoretical and practical analysis of a lossy three‐phase transmission line.Design/methodology/approach – The results obtained in the study of TEM waves propagation in two‐wire line can be extended to a symmetric m‐wire line by employing the modal analysis. This approach relates the dynamic of m‐wire guided field to the propagation of m modal voltages and currents acting on m single‐wire decoupled transverse electromagnetic (TEM) lines. In the symmetric three‐phase system case, the modal analysis includes, as a particular case for m=3, the symmetric component theory. In previous papers, the authors applied the Park transformation to study the wave propagation of (TEM) three‐phase symmetrical lines. The formulation proposed and tested considers the lossless TEM wave propagation of a three‐phase line without consideration to the dissipations phenomena present in the line itself. Taking into account the obtained results, th...
