What should be real and reactive power flow through the transmission line when the sending end and receiving end voltages are of same magnitudes and phase angles?

The power transfer equation is this:
P = V1*V2*sin(phi)/Xt,
V1 = source 1 voltage
V2 = source 2 voltage
phi = angle between the two sources
Xt = transfer impedance, the impedance of the line + both source impedances
From this you can see that if the angle between the two sources is 0, then the power transferred would be zero as well.
Reactive power flow *should* be zero if perfectly matched as well, although there will be a small amount of reactive power usage due to line charging (charging current).

What is a 132 kv substation?
132kV substation is part of transmission and distribution of power in which the transmission voltage is 132kV. The substation is for stepping down or stepping up of the voltages to the required voltage. the substation also serves as a place where the transmission lines can be isolated, controlled and monitored. The substation consists of different equipment that is used to regulate, monitor and distribute the required power.Another AnswerIn the UK, 132 kV voltages are considered to be the lowest transmission voltages. Other transmission voltages are 275 kV and 400 kV. A '132-kV substation' is normally one in which this voltage is stepped down to a primary distribution voltage, usually 33 kV but, sometimes, 66 kV. As the previous answer points out, substations contain transformers, switchgear, busbars, and protection equipment.
Why do high tension transmission wires carry electricity at high voltages?
For a given load, the higher the supply voltage, the lower the resulting load current. So, using high voltages reduce the load current which, in turn:minimise voltage drop along the line (which, at low voltages, would otherwise be enormous, rendering transmission of energy impossible).enable conductors of practical size.reduce line losses.
Why ac transmission voltage is 765 kv?
For a given load, the higher the supply voltage, the lower the resulting load current. So high voltages are essential for electricity transmission, in order to avoid enormous voltage drops, a need for conductors for huge cross-sectional areas, and to reduce line losses. Actual transmission sytem voltages are determined by the electricity-supply standards used in the country in which you live.
Why 22kv 11kv 33kv 132kv 220 kv are standard transmission voltages in transmission lines why not 20kv 10kv etc?
Its just a matter of standard. In my area, for instance, we use 13.2 KV for distribution lines, and 69 KV / 138 KV for transmission lines.
Why the generation voltage is 11kv not 10kv?
Alternator output voltages are typically restricted to around 25 kV to limit their physical size and the centrifugal forces to which they are subjected. In the UK, this voltage is then typically raised to 400 kV for transmission.The voltages to which you are referring to are typical of the voltages used in the UK's high-voltage distribution system. 'Grid' substations typically transform transmission voltages of 132 kV down to 33 kV (or, less commonly, 66 kV), and 'primary' substations then transform distribution voltages of 33 kV down to 11 kV.
Why are transmission voltages in multiples of 11?
Transmission voltages are in multiples of 11 to allow for 10% transmission line losses. Therefore, to obtain 100% efficiency, voltages in multiples of 11 are transmitted.
What are the voltages in secondary transmission electric lines?
A: Those voltages are called distribution voltages to differentiate from transmission voltages. And that varies from state to state and locals . Usually around 10kv to 20 kv
What are the standard voltages for transmission?
The standard voltage for transmission is about 115 to 1,200 kV (long-distance transmission). The extreme high voltages are measured more than 2,000 kV and it is exists between conductor and ground.Answer for UKThe standard transmission voltages in the UK are 400 kV and 275 kV. Primary distribution voltages are 132 kV and 33 kV, and secondary distribution voltages are 11 kV and 400 V. These are all line voltages -i.e. voltages measured between line conductors.
What causes low power factor?
Reactive power flow results in a lower power factor. In transmission systems, this can be due to unequal source voltages. In load networks, this is usually due to motor load.
How are lower voltages combined into higher voltages for transmission?
Low voltages are not 'combined into higher voltages' for transmission! The lower voltage (e.g. the voltage generated at a power station) is applied to the primary winding of a large power transformer, and the required higher transmission voltage then appears across the transformer's secondary winding. The magnitude of the secondary voltage is determined by the turns ratio of the transformer's windings.
What is the line voltage of a 230000 kv transmission line?
Transmission and distribution voltages are normally expressed in terms of line voltages, so the answer is that the figure you quote is a line voltage. Incidentally, do you really mean 230 megavolts for a transmission voltage?? And the symbol of kilovolt is 'kV', not 'kv'.
Why don't you step up voltage up to 900 Volt for transmission?
Voltages are nearly always stepped up for transmission, sometimes to 400,000 volts or more.
Can two power systems having different voltages be synchronised?
yes. it is happen only for HVDC transmission .. but we can't set different voltage at A.C transmission system...

What is transmission line amps rating?
High power transmission lines carry several hundred amperes up to 2000 amps at voltages up to 500 kV or higher
Is there any need of transformers in HVDC transmission if yes then why it is needed and what is the working of it?
For DC transmission, power is transferred based on the difference in voltage between the sending and receiving end. Because of this, you need to be able to control the sending and receiving voltage. Moreover, HVDC are typically used to transport power long distances into separate AC power systems. Because of this the voltage control is typically accomplished by having an AC/DC converter, which includes specialized power transformers. These transformers are connected to create near DC voltages.
