Below is a basic guide on how you might structure this calculation:
% Three-Phase Transmission Line Parameters Calculation
% Define the physical and electrical parameters
length_km = 100; % Length of the line in kilometers
f = 60; % Frequency in Hz
r = 0.01; % Radius of the conductor in meters
D = 1; % Distance between conductors in meters
rho = 1.68e-8; % Resistivity of the conductor material (Ohm-meter for copper)
mu0 = 4*pi*1e-7; % Permeability of free space
epsilon = 8.854e-12; % Permittivity of free space
% Calculating Resistance (R)
R = rho * (length_km * 1000) / (pi * r^2);
% Calculating Inductance (L)
L = (mu0 * length_km * 1000) / (2 * pi) * log(D/r);
% Calculating Capacitance (C)
C = (2 * pi * epsilon * length_km * 1000) / log(D/r);
% Calculating Series Impedance (Zs)
% Inductive Reactance (Xl)
Xl = 2 * pi * f * L;
% Series Impedance (Zs)
Zs = R + 1i*Xl; % Using '1i' to represent the imaginary unit in MATLAB
% Display the results
disp(['Transmission Line Parameters for a length of ', num2str(length_km), ' km:']);
disp(['Resistance (R) = ', num2str(R), ' Ohms']);
disp(['Inductance (L) = ', num2str(L), ' Henrys']);
disp(['Capacitance (C) = ', num2str(C), ' Farads']);
disp(['Series Impedance (Zs) = ', num2str(Zs), ' Ohms']);
Note:
This script is for educational purposes and assumes a simplified model of the transmission line.
In real-world scenarios, other factors such as conductor bundling, earth effects, and line configuration
may significantly affect the actual values.

3-phase short transmission line delivers 400kW at 11kV at 0.8 power factor lagging, the resistance and reactance of each conductor are 1.5 2 and 4.0 2 per phase respectively. Write a MATLAB program to determine the line performance, (efficiency and transmission losses)
NB: Use fprintf to display results
Efficiency = ((Psending - Ploss Psending)/Psending)x100%
