This paper presents the solutions of a real-time parallel-processing based simulator, eMEGAsim, to perform electromagnetic transient and transient stability simulations for distribution power networks. The electromagnetic transient simulation can be distributed into several processors without adding an artificial delay, and the transient stability simulation tool can model three-phase unbalance...

To achieve rapid real-time transient stability prediction, a power system transient stability prediction method based on the extraction of the post-fault trajectory cluster features of generators is proposed. This approach is conducted using data-mining techniques and support vector machine (SVM) models. First, the post-fault rotor angles and generator terminal voltage magnitudes are considered...

As one of the key technologies of large scale access of distributed energy resources, the HVDC transmission system has great potential for further development. Therefore, in the past decades, the problem associated with HVDC converters connected to weak AC networks has become an important research field. The one of particular interest, and highest in consequences, is the AC voltage stability at...

Main contribution of this work is improving transient stability by installing Flexible AC Transmission System (FACTS) in power systems. For do this, Unified Power Flow Controller (UPFC) has been selected. Also a novel structure has been suggested to improve classic Harmony Search algorithm and suggested improved Harmony Search (iHS) algorithm. This algorithm has been used to obtain UPFC paramet...

The main objective of this paper is to perform transient stability analysis using the electrical power systems design and analysis software namely ETAP. The purpose of performing transient stability on the power system is to study the stability of a system under various disturbances. The stability of the power system is the ability of generators to remain in synchronisation even when subjected ...

The Static Synchronous Compensators (STATCOMs) have been recoginzed as the most effective solution for dynamic reactive power compensation, voltage stability enhancement and subsynchronous resonance damping purposes in the electric power systems. The STATCOMs in the distribution utilites (DSTATCOMs) are increasingly investigated for dynamic reactive power compensation and power quality improvem...
