With increased power transfer, transient stability is increasingly important for secure operation. Transient stability evaluation of large scale power systems is an extremely intricate and highly non-linear problem. An important function of transient evaluation is to appraise the capability of the power system to withstand serious contingency in time, so that some emergencies or preventive cont...

For the improvement of transient stability the general methods adopted are fast acting exciters, circuit breakers and reduction in system transfer reactance. The modern trend is to employ FACTS devices in the existing system for effective utilization of existing transmission resources. These FACTS devices contribute to power flow improvement besides they extend their services in transient stabi...

Power system is subjected to sudden changes in load levels. Stability is an important concept which determines the stable operation of power system. In general rotor angle stability is taken as index, but the concept of transient stability, which is the function of operating condition and disturbances deals with the ability of the system to remain intact after being subjected to abnormal deviat...

In this paper, transient stability improvement using bridge type fault current limiter (FCL) is presented in single machine infinite bus (SMIB) system with a double circuit transmission line. Three single-phase sets of the proposed FCL are installed at the beginning of feeder. The proposed FCL inserts an inductance and a resistance in the fault current pass. The insertion inductance and resista...

this paper works on the concept of flatness and its practical application for the design of an optimal transient controller in a synchronous machine. the feedback linearization scheme of interest requires the generation of a flat output from which the feedback control law can easily be designed. thus the computation of the flat output for reduced order model of the synchronous machine with simp...

This paper presents the improvement of transient stability of a multi-machine power system with a STATCOM. Transient stability improvement is essential from the view point of maintaining system security that is the incidence of a fault should not lead to tripping of generating unit due to loss of synchronism. Static synchronous compensator is widely used in power system to control power by inje...
