Power System Stability

• „Stability“ - general definition:

Ability of a system to return to a steady state after a disturbance.

• Small signal effects


• Large signal effects (nonlinear dynamics)

• Power System Stability - definition according to CIGRE/IEEE:


• Rotor angle stability (oscillatory, transient-stability)
• Voltage stability (short-term, long-term, dynamic)
• Frequency stability

Fundamentals on Power System Stability 3

Frequency Stability

Ability of a power system to compensate for a power deficit:


1. Inertial reserve (network time constant)
ƒ Lost power is compensated by the energy stored in rotating masses of
all generators -> Frequency decreasing

2. Primary reserve:
ƒ Lost power is compensated by an increase in production of primary
controlled units. -> Frequency drop partly compensated

3. Secondary reserve:
ƒ Lost power is compensated by secondary controlled units. Frequency
and area exchange flows reestablished

4. Re-Dispatch of Generation

maintain steady voltages at all buses in the system after being
subjected to a disturbance.

Dynamic Voltage Stability

• Dynamic voltage stability problems are resulting from sudden


increase in reactive power demand of induction machine loads.

-> Consequences: Undervoltage trip of one or several machines,


dynamic voltage collapse

• Small synchronous generators consume increased amount of


reactive power after a heavy disturbance -> voltage recovery
problems.

-> Consequences: Slow voltage recovery can lead to undervoltage


trips of own supply -> loss of generation
