Voltage control with shunt capacitance on radial distribution line with high R/X factor

As a previous study showed, the voltage on a distribution line with high R/X ratio will actually decrease as shunt capacitance is added. This thesis develops a new distribution feeder model and confirms this unexpected result. Then the IEEE radial test feeders are modeled to further study the effect...

Description
Summary:As a previous study showed, the voltage on a distribution line with high R/X ratio will actually decrease as shunt capacitance is added. This thesis develops a new distribution feeder model and confirms this unexpected result. Then the IEEE radial test feeders are modeled to further study the effect and provide additional insight into voltage control on feeders with high R/X ratio. === Thesis (M.S.)--Wichita State University, College of Engineering, Dept. of Electrical and Computer Engineering === "December 2005."
