why transmission lines using 220KV...

Answer / arin4444

Transmission lines uses higher kV, only to reduce
transmission losses like I2R losses,capacitive,inductive
losses & at higher kV as current is low,so diameter of cu
wire becomes small,which is cost effective also.These are
the main reason for using higher kV.

why transmission lines using 220KV...

Answer / krishna

If we draw power at higher voltage then current will
decrease, so we require smaller conductor to carry that
much curret. As smaller the conductor resistace will be
less and hence I^2*R losses will be reduced. Thus the main
purpose is to reduce transmission losses.

NATURAL GAS ENGINEERING - QUESTION 26.2 : (a) The Hyperion sewage plant in Los Angeles burns 8 million cubic feet of natural gas per day to generate power in United States of America. If 1 metre = 3.28084 feet, then how many cubic metres of such gas is burnt per hour? (b) A reservoir of natural gas produces 50 mole % methane and 50 mole % ethane. At zero degree Celsius and one atmosphere, the density of methane gas is 0.716 g / L and the density of ethane gas is 1.3562 mg / (cubic cm). The molar mass of methane is 16.04 g / mol and molar mass of ethane is 30.07 g / mol. (i) Find the mass % of methane and ethane in the natural gas. (ii) Find the average density of the natural gas mixture in the reservoir at zero degree Celsius and one atmosphere, by assuming that the gases are ideal where final volume of the gas mixture is the sum of volume of the individual gases at constant temperature and pressure. (iii) Find the average density of the natural gas mixture in the reservoir at zero degree Celsius and one atmosphere, by assuming that the final mass of the gas mixture is the sum of mass of the individual gases. Assume the gases are ideal where mole % = volume % at constant pressure and temperature.
