–
For tower configurations assume a symmetric conductor spacing, with the distance
in feet given by the following formula: (Last two digits of your EIN+150)/10.
Example student A has an UIN of xxx65. Then his/her spacing is (65+150)/10 =

Recap: Power Flow
• The power flow is used to determine a quasi steadystate operating condition for a power system
–
Goal is to solve a set of algebraic equations
•
–
–
g(y) = 0 [y variables are bus voltage and angle]
Models employed reflect the steady-state assumption
Using a power flow, after a contingency occurs (such as
opening a line), the algebraic equations are solved to
determine a new equilibrium
7
Power Flow vs. Dynamics
• Dynamics simulations is used to determine whether
following a contingency the power system returns to a
steady-state operating point
–
Goal is to solve a set of differential and algebraic equations,
•
•
–
–
dx/dt = f(x,y) [y variables are bus voltage and angle]
g(x,y) = 0
[x variables are dynamic state variables]
Starts in steady-state, and hopefully returns to a new steadystate value
Models reflect the transient stability time frame (up to dozens
of seconds)
•
•
Slow Values  Treat as constants
Ultra Fast States  Treat as algebraic relationships
8
Power System Transient Stability
• In order to operate as an interconnected system all
of the generators (and other synchronous machines)
must remain in synchronism with one another
–
synchronism requires that (for two pole machines) the
rotors turn at exactly the same speed
• Loss of synchronism results in a condition in which
no net power can be transferred between the
machines
• A system is said to be transiently unstable if
following a disturbance one or more of the
generators lose synchronism
9
Generator Transient Stability Models
• In order to study the transient response of a power
system we need to develop models for the
generator valid during the transient time frame of
several seconds following a system disturbance
• We need to develop both electrical and mechanical
models for the generators
10
Generator Electrical Model
• The simplest generator model, known as the
classical model, treats the generator as a voltage
source behind the direct-axis transient reactance;
the voltage magnitude is fixed, but its angle
changes according to the mechanical dynamics

Tm  mechanical input torque (N-m)
J  moment of inertia of turbine & rotor
 m  angular acceleration of turbine & rotor

In general power = torque  angular speed
Hence when a generator is spinning at speed s

Pm

Initially we'll assume no damping (i.e., TD  0)
Then
Pm  Pe ( )  J ms
Pm is the mechanical power input, which is assumed
to be constant throughout the study time period

Generator Swing Equation
This equation is known as the generator swing equation
Pm  Pe ( )  M 
Adding damping we get
Pm  Pe ( )  M   D
This equation is analogous to a mass suspended by
a spring

Single Machine Infinite Bus (SMIB)
• To understand the transient stability problem we’ll
first consider the case of a single machine
(generator) connected to a power system bus with
a fixed voltage magnitude and angle (known as an
infinite bus) through a transmission line with
impedance jXL

Transient Stability Analysis
• For transient stability analysis we need to consider
three systems
1.
2.
3.
Prefault - before the fault occurs the system is assumed
to be at an equilibrium point
Faulted - the fault changes the system equations,
moving the system away from its equilibrium point
Postfault - after fault is cleared the system hopefully
returns to a new operating point
Actual transient stability studies can have
multiple events
20
Transient Stability Solution Methods
• There are two methods for solving the transient
stability problem
1.
Numerical integration
•
2.
this is by far the most common technique, particularly for
large systems; during the fault and after the fault the power
system differential equations are solved using numerical
methods
Direct or energy methods; for a two bus system this
method is known as the equal area criteria
•
mostly used to provide an intuitive insight into the transient
stability problem
21
SMIB Example
• Assume a generator is supplying power to an
infinite bus through two parallel transmission lines.
Then a balanced three phase fault occurs at the
terminal of one of the lines. The fault is cleared by
the opening of this line’s circuit breakers.
22
SMIB Example, cont’d
Simplified prefault system
The prefault system has two
equilibrium points; the left one
is stable, the right one unstable

During the fault the system changes
The equivalent system during the fault is then
During this fault no
power can be transferred
from the generator to
the system
