5. Over the frequency range, 3 rad/s to 8 rad/s, in which the
gain of the Bode plot in Fig. 4 for the open-loop generator 2
PSS channel is above or near 0dB, the generator 2 PSS
overrides the voltage signal to the exciter reducing transient
stability. This overriding of the exciter voltage signal by the
PSS is observed directly from the Bode plots of the open-loop
AVR channels in Fig. 5. The closed-loop AVR channel C2 has
significant loss of gain (as low as –10dB gain) in the vicinity
of the electromechanical mode frequencies, 3.5 rad/s and 6.5
rad/s. In contrast, the gain of closed-loop AVR channel C4
remains close to 0dB at frequencies up to 10 rad/s. In other
words, the AVR at generator 2 is not effective between 3 rad/s
and 8 rad/s but the AVR at generator 4 is. For instance, the
terminal voltage response at generator 2 to a system
disturbance would exhibit markedly more persistent transients.
