In this paper, a largeorder system is reduced by using the self adaptive bat algorithm (SABA) to a reduced-order approximation. The numerator coefficients of a desired reduced-order system are optimized based on integral square error minimization as an objective function pertaining to a unit-step as input. The denominator of the reduced order model is solved by stability equation method. The ef...

With constraints on data availability and for study of power system stability it is adequate to model the synchronous generator with field circuit and one equivalent damper on q-axis known as the model 1.1. This paper presents a systematic procedure for modelling and simulation of a single-machine infinite-bus power system installed with a thyristor controlled series compensator (TCSC) where th...

In this paper the use of artificial neural network in power system stability is studied. A predictive controller based on two neural networks is designed and tested on a single machine infinite bus system which is used to replace conventional power system stabilizers. They have been used for decades in power system to dampen small amplitude low frequency oscillation in power systems. The increa...

With an increase in power transfer, transient stability is increasingly becoming important for secure operation. With the advent of FACTS devices, the problem of transient stability is being addressed and efforts are under way to utilize the systems to their full capacity. The focus of this work is a neural network predictive controller for a versatile FACTs device, Unified Power Flow Controlle...

Since the idea of synchronizing two identical chaotic systems under different initial conditions was first introduced by Pecora and Carroll, the synchronization of chaotic systems has attracted much attention, and the synchronization of non-identical chaotic systems has also been investigated. Single-Machine Infinite-Bus (SMIB) power system has nonlinear behaviour. On account of avoiding undesi...

Synchronous machines installed in recently developed small-scale hydro power plants in Norway have relatively high values of the synchronous reactances, as well as the sub-transient and transient reactances. Typical synchronous reactance is 2 – 2.5 pu, but values up to 3.1 pu are experienced, which is 3 times the typical values for larger low-speed synchronous generators (with salient poles). H...
