The first matrix is Clarke's matrix that is real, frequency independent, easily represented in computational transient programs (EMTP) and separates the line into Quasi-modes α, β and zero. After that, Quasi-modes α and zero are decomposed into their exact modes by using a modal transformation matrix whose elements can be synthesized in time domain through standard curve-fitting techniques. The main advantage of this alternative representation is to reduce the processing time because a frequency dependent modal transformation matrix of a three-phase line has nine elements to be represented in time domain while a modal transformation matrix of a two-phase line has only four elements. This paper shows modal decomposition process and eigenvectors of a non-transposed three-phase line with a vertical symmetry plane whose nominal voltage is 440 kV and line length is 500 km. © 2006 IEEE.491-496engElectromagnetic transients analysisfrequency domain analysistime domain analysistransmission line matrix methodsAlternative proceduresClarke's matrixElectro-magnetic transientFrequency dependentFrequency domainsFrequency independentmatrixModal decompositionModal transformationNominal voltageProcessing TimeSymmetry planesThree-phase linesTime domainTransformation matricesTransmission lineCurve fittingElectric linesFrequency domain analysisLinear transformationsModal analysisTransient analysisTransmission line theoryTime domain analysisAn alternative procedure to decrease the dimension of the frequency dependent modal transformation matrices: Application in three-phase transmission lines with a vertical symmetry planeTrabalho apresentado em evento10.1109/TDCLA.2006.311633WOS:000246244800090Acesso aberto2-s2.0-82955175461483084523054922378706478550058200000-0001-5716-6827
