The objective of this paper is to present a simplified method to analyze small-signal stability of a power system and provide performance metrics for stability assessment of a given power-system-architecture. The stability margins are stated utilizing a concept of maximum peak criteria (MPC), derived from the behavior of an impedance-based sensitivity function that provides a single number to s...

Purpose – The purpose of the paper is to introduce the Dynamic Phasor Modelling (DPM) approach for stability investigation and control design of single-phase Phase Locked Loops PLLs. The aim is to identify the system instabilities not predicted using the existent analysis and design methods based on the simplified average model approach. Design/methodology/approach – This paper starts by invest...

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...

-In the micro-grid, droop control strategy simulates traditional power system droop characteristics , by changing the output of active and reactive power to control the output voltage frequency and amplitude, thus the micro-grid system can work at the stabilize voltage point in island operation mode . And the voltage is more or less with the grid-connect mode,so that the transition is smooth wh...

In this study, a new method for designing the damping controller was proposed to improve the transient power system stability in a single machine network connected to an infinite bus. The STATCOM controller problem in a wide area of the system function was considered as an optimization problem with multi-purpose objective function. Also, the Honey Bee Mating Optimization Algorithm was used to d...

This paper presents a detailed small-signal and transient analysis of a full bridge PWM DC-DC converter designed for high voltage, high power applications using an average model. The derived model is implemented in a typical system and used to produce the small-signal and transient characteristics of the converter. Results obtained in the analysis of the high voltage and high power design examp...
