Abstract With the continuous expansion of power systems and application electronic equipment, forced oscillation has become one key problems in terms system safety stability. In this paper, an interline flow controller (IPFC) is used as a suppression carrier its mechanism analyzed using linearized state-space method to improve damping ratio. It shown that although IPFC can suppress with well-de...

Grid-connected wind turbines are fluctuating power sources that may produce flicker during continuous operation. This paper presents a simulation model of a MW-level variable speed wind turbine with a full-scale back-to-back power converter and permanent magnet synchronous generator (PMSG) developed in the simulation tool of PSCAD/EMTDC. Flicker emission of this system is investigated. The 3p (...

We consider the problem of oscillation damping in air of a thermally actuated microlever as it gradually approaches an infinite wall in parallel geometry. As the gap is decreased from 20 microm down to 400 nm, we observe the increasing damping of the lever Brownian motion in the fluid laminar regime. This manifests itself as a linear decrease in the lever quality factor accompanied by a dramati...

This paper presents a novel study for SSR mitigating in the wind power systems based on DFIG using GCSC (Gate controlled series capacitor). The GCSC is composed of three pairs of anti-parallel GTO Thyristors (Gate Turnoff) connected in parallel with a fixed capacitor. The GCSC is applied to reduce inrush current in capacitor compensator during the transient operation by executing a proper firin...

The concept of phasor measurement and its application in power system monitoring and control are introduced in this paper. The example of application of PMU in a Campus Wide Area Monitoring System (WAMS) is then elaborated. With the availability of synchrophasor data measurement, it makes possible to establish the power system monitoring by directly employing spectral analysis of power or phase...

This proposed work aims at forming a switching level modeling of Unified Power Flow Controller (UPFC) and analyzing its operation. The switching level modeling of UPFC is carried out using high power electronic devices such as IGBT based six pulse shunt and series converters. The operating performance of UPFC is demonstrated on Single Machine Infinite Bus (SMIB) system for different case studie...

We present an overview of the applications of graph theory in power system modeling, dynamics, coherency, and control. We first study synchronization of generator dynamics using both nonlinear and small-signal representations of classical structure-preserving models of power systems in light of their network structure and the weights associated with the nodes and edges of the network graph. We ...

-. Wide-area measurement systems enable the wide-area damping controller (WADC) to use remote signals to enhance the small signal stability of large scale interconnected power systems. System operating condition variations and signal transmission time delays are the major factors to worsen the damping effect and even deteriorate the system stability. This paper proposes a novel measurement-base...

This paper considers the decentralized turbine-governor control design for the damping of low-frequency, inter-area oscillations in electric power systems. A time-varying model that explains oscillations caused by parametric resonance is employed to design a controller. A robust turbine-governor controller design is presented on the basis of the model. Furthermore, a basic idea for incorporatin...

If a contact of two purely elastic bodies with no sliding (infinite coefficient of friction) is subjected to superimposed oscillations in the normal and tangential directions, then a specific damping appears, that is not dependent on friction or dissipation in the material. We call this effect "relaxation damping". The rate of energy dissipation due to relaxation damping is calculated in a clos...
