1 Introduction
In [1] we have presented the eŒects of magnetic saturation, circuit parameters,
and control systems on the power system steady-state stability phenomena. The
saturated synchronous machine reactances are smaller than the unsaturated re-
actances, and the steady-state stability limit computed with control systems ne-
glected is smaller than the stability limit with control systems present [1]. The
term “ saliency” is used for all types of synchronous machines (round-rotor and
salient-pole) in which the electromagnetic parameters are signicantly diŒerent in
the direct and quadrature axes because of the presence of the eld winding on the
d -axis only. It has also been shown in [1] that the eŒect of saturation is much more
important than that of the saliency. The value of the saturated reactance varies with
the saturation. Several methods of nding the values of the synchronous machine d-
and q -axis saturated reactances have been advanced by various writers [2–8]. These
methods diŒer in their simplicity and in their accuracy. The importance of con-

sidering magnetic saturation, circuit parameters, and control systems on the power
system transient stability is presented in this paper. Transient stability is the ability
of the power system to maintain synchronism when subjected to a severe transient
disturbance. A power system is transiently stable for a particular steady-state oper-
ating condition and for a particular large disturbance if, following the disturbance,
it reaches an acceptable steady-state operating condition. The resulting system re-
sponse involves large excursions of generator rotor angles and is inuenced by the
nonlinear power-angle relationship. A conventional transient stability measure of
the system robustness to withstand a large disturbance is its corresponding criti-
cal clearing time (CCT )—the maximum time between the fault initiation and its
clearing such that the power system is transiently stable. To understand the eŒects
of synchronous machine iron saturation, circuit parameters, and control systems on
the system critical clearing time, the following four diŒerent synchronous machine
model systems have been used:
M odel 1: no control system and no saturation
M odel 2: with control system and no saturation
M odel 3: no control system and with saturation
M odel 4: with control systems and with saturation
Steady-state stability depends on both the generator control systems and satura-
tion. It is our objective to investigate the inuences of the control systems and
saturation on the system transient stability as a function of the damper circuit
parameters. We will consider an IEEE3.3 detailed synchronous machine model [9].
The transient stability model, as described in reference [2], has been used for anal-
ysis. The control systems and saturation functions used in steady-state stability
studies have also been used here in transient analysis [1].
and hence, it has a eld winding and two damper windings in the d -axis and three
damper windings in the q -axis. Numerical analysis has been performed on a sin-
gle generator innite bus system connected through a double circuit transmission
line, as shown in Figure 1 and Table 1. The owchart in Figure 2 describes the
structure of the transient stability program. First the initial values of generator
terminal quantities and damper circuit ux linkages are calculated; however, this
is a repeated process because the q -axis synchronous reactance, X q , depends on
saturation. The owchart of reference [1] describes the procedure to calculate the
initial values, such as generator load angle, damper circuit ux linkages, magnetiz-
ing currents, etc. During switching ( i.e., fault occurence, circuit breaker opening,
and circuit breaker reclosing), the network parameters should be modied. Auxil-
iary currents [2], which represent saturation level have been used as a convergence
criterion. For an unsaturated generator, auxiliary current is zero, and this current
increases as the machine becomes more and more saturated. Then we can determine
the power system transient stability characteristics as described in the owchart for
the above-mentioned four models.

urates appreciably more than that of the d -axis because of the presence of the rotor
teeth in the magnetic path of the q -axis. The eŒect of saturation in synchronous
machine analysis is represented by varying the magnetizing reactances X m d and
X m q . In most of the mathematical analyses, it has been assumed for convenience
that even after the machine saturates, the leakage ux will not change signicantly,
(i.e., the leakage ux will remain approximately linear functions of their respective
currents). To simulate synchronous machine saturation, the d - and q -axis saturation
characteristics described in [1] have also been used in this paper and are presented
in Figure 3.
3 Numerical A nalysis
3.1 Simulation Procedure
Figure 1 shows a single-line diagram in which a generator is connected to an in-
nite bus system through a double-circuit transmission line. The generator node is
a PV node, and the innite bus voltage has been assumed to be the reference bus
voltage. The transmission system parameters are presented in Table 1. Nanticoke
generator detailed model parameters have been used for numerical analysis [10] and
are presented in Table 2. The governor and AVR gains K 1 and K 2 are 25 and 20,
respectively, and time constants T g and T a v r are 2.0 and 0.5 seconds, respectively.
To simulate saturation in the synchronous machine, fth-degree polynomials have
been used for the d - and q -axis saturation characteristics described in Figure 3.
We have used 0.00169 pu for r a [2]. A three-phase short circuit at the sending end
of line 2 has been simulated. The fault occurs at t = 0 .0833 seconds (5 cycles),
then disconnecting the line at t = (0 .0833 + FCT ) seconds (where FCT is the
fault clearing time) and nally reclosing it at t = 1.0 seconds (for a 60 Hz system).
The removal of a faulted element requires a protective relaying system to detect
that a fault has occurred and to initiate the opening of circuit breakers, which will
isolate the faulted element from the system. The total fault clearing time is, there-
fore, made up of the relay time and the breaker interrupting time. For numerical
integration, 4th-order Runge-Kutta method has been used, and the time step for
simulation is 1/ 600 seconds. Then we can determine the power system transient
stability characteristics for the above-mentioned four diŒerent models.

Critical clearing times (seconds) and initial load angles for
the four diŒerent models
result of growing oscillations. Critical clearing times for 21 cases of each circuit
parameter have been calculated for the four diŒerent model systems. The critical
clearing times for the four models are presented in Table 3. Figures 6 to 13 show the
variation in critical clearing times for a range of 70% to 130% of the damper circuit
standard values for the four diŒerent models. The following can be concluded from
Table 3 and Figure 5:
· Inclusion of control systems increases the critical clearing time of the system
to a considerable degree (as seen from Table 3) , and the excursion of the load
angle is improved by 2 degrees (as seen from Fig. 5). It is an indication of
system transient stability enhancement.
· Inclusion of saturation causes a decrement in the initial load angle, and the
excursion of the load angle is improved by a considerable amount, as can be
seen from Table 3 and Figure 5. Saturation inclusion also causes an increment
in the critical clearing time. Thus the transient stability is greatly enhanced
by the inclusion of saturation.

Total change in CCT (in seconds) for a 70% to 130% variation of damper circuit
diŒerent generator model parameters. Total change in CCT for a particular param-
eter for four models has been shown in the column “ Total.” Observing the charac-
teristics presented in Figures 6 through 13 and Table 4, the following conclusions
can be made:
1. The power system critical clearing time is most sensitive to eld circuit
leakage reactance among all the rotor circuit parameters.
2. The system critical clearing time reaches its maximum value when saturation
is considered and machine is equipped with control systems.
3. EŒect of control systems on the power system critical clearing time is bigger
than that of saturation.
4. For most of the rotor circuit parameters, critical clearing time varies less as
a function of rotor circuit parameter when control systems and saturation
are considered.
4 Conclusion
The eŒects of synchronous machine iron saturation, circuit parameters, and control
systems on the power system transient stability phenomena have been presented in
this paper. Inclusion of saturation causes a decrement in the initial load angle, and
the excursion of the load angle is improved by a considerable amount. Saturation
inclusion also causes an increment in the critical clearing time. Inclusion of control
systems increases the critical clearing time of the system to a considerable degree,
and the excursion of the load angle is improved by 2 degrees. Thus the transient
stability is greatly enhanced by the inclusion of saturation and control systems. The
power system critical clearing time is most sensitive to eld leakage reactance among
the rotor circuit parameters. The system critical clearing time reaches its maximum
value when saturation is considered and machine is equipped with control systems.
EŒect of control systems on the power system critical clearing time is bigger than
that of saturation. For most of the rotor circuit parameters, critical clearing time
varies less as a function of damper circuit parameter when control systems and
saturation are considered.
