Recent Trends in Power System Stability: Recent Trends in Power System Stability in design of large alternators tend towards lower short circuit ratio (SCR = 1/Xd), which is achieved by reducing machine air gap with consequent savings in machine mmf, size, weight and cost. Reduction in the size of rotor reduces inertia constant, lowering thereby …
Factors Affecting Transient Stability: Factors Affecting Transient Stability – The two-machine system can be equivalently reduced to a single machine connected to infinite bus bar. The qualitative conclusions regarding system stability drawn from a two-machine or an equivalent one-machine infinite bus system can be easily extended to a multimachine system. In the last article we …
Numerical Solution of Swing Equation: Numerical Solution of Swing Equation – In most practical systems, after machine lumping has been done, there are still more than two machines to be considered from the point of view of system stability. Therefore, there is no choice but to solve the swing equation of each machine by a …
Equal Area Criterion in Power System: In a system where one machine is swinging with respect to an infinite bus, it is possible to study transient stability by means of a simple Equal Area Criterion in Power System, without resorting to the numerical solution of a swing equation. Consider the swing equation If the system …

Node Elimination Technique in Power System: In stability studies, it has been indicated that the buses to be considered are those which are excited by the internal machine voltages (transient emf’s) and not the load buses which are excited by the terminal voltages of the generators. Therefore, in YBUS formulation for the stability study, the …
Power Angle Equation of Synchronous Machine: Power Angle Equation of Synchronous Machine – In solving the swing equation (Eq. (12.10)), certain simplifying assumptions are usually made. These are: Mechanical power input to the machine (Pm) remains constant during the period of electromechanical transient of interest. In other words, it means that the effect of the …
