Power System Transient Stability Analysis Based on the Development and Evaluation Methods

A novel method to compute the stability region in power system transient stability analysis is presented. This method is based on the set analysis. The key to this method is to construct the Hamilton-Jacobi-Isaacs (HJI) partial differential equation (PDE) of a nonlinear system, using which we can compute the backward reachable set by applying the level set methods. The backward reachable set of a stable equilibrium yields the stability region of the equilibrium point in power system transient stability assessment. The proposed method is applied to a single machine infinite bus system and a classical two-machine system yielding satisfactory results.Power system transient stability is related to the ability to maintain synchronism when subject to a severe disturbance, such as a short circuit on the bus. The resulting system response involves large excursions of generator rotor angles and is influenced by the nonlinear power-angle relationshipTransient stability assessment essentially determines whether the post-fault operating state can reach an acceptable steady-state operating point or not
