Power System Stability

1.1 tatreduction
Since the industtial revolution man’s demand for and consumption of energy has
increased steadily The invention of the induction motor by Nikola Tesla in 1888 si
naled the growing importance of electrical energy in the industrial world as well as its
use for artificial lighting. A major portion of the energy needs of a modern society is
supplied in the form of electrical energy
Industrially developed societies need an ever-
and the demand on the North American continent has been doubling every ten yeass
Very complex power systems have been built to satisfy this increasing demand The
trend in electric power production is toward an interconnected network of transmission
lines linking generators and loads into large integrated systems, some of which span en-
tire continents Indeed, in the United States and Canada, generators located thousands
of miles apart operate in parallel
This vast enterprise of supplying electrical energy presents many engineering prob-
lems that provide the engineer with a variety of challenges The planning, construction,
and operation of such systems become exceedingly complex. Some of the problems
stimulate the enginect's managerial talents; others tax his knowledge and experience in
system design. The entire design must be predicated on automatic control and not on
the slow response of human operators To be able to predict the performance of such
complex systems, the engineer is forced to seek ever mote powerful tools of analysis and
synthesis
This book is concerned with some aspects of the design problem, particularly the
dynamic performance, of interconnected power systems, Characteristics of the various
components of a power system during normal operating conditions and during dis-
turbances will be examined, and effects on the overall system performance will be
analyzed, Emphasis will be given to the transient behavior in which the system is de-
scribed mathematically by ordinary differential equations
1.2. Requirements of a Reliable Electrical Power Service
Successful operation of a power system depends largely on the engineer's ability to
provide reliable and uninterrupted service to the loads The reliability of the power
supply implies much more than merely being available. Ideally, the loads must be fed at
constant voltage and frequency at all times. In practical terms this means that both
voltage and frequency must be held within close tolerances so that the consumer's
34 Chapter 1
equipment may operate satistactorily. For example, a drop in voltage of 10-15% or a
reduction of the system frequency of only a few hertz may lead to stalling of the motor
loads on the system. Thus it can be accurately stated that the power system operator
must maintain a very high standard of continuous electrical service
The first requirement of reliable service is to keep the synchronous generators
running in parallel and with adequate capacity to meet the load demand. If at any time
generator loses synchronism with the rest of the system, significant voltage and current
fluctuations may occur and transmission lines may be automatically tripped by theit
relays at undesired locations. Ifa generator is separated from the system, it must be re-
synchronized and then loaded, assuming it has not been damaged and its prime mover
has not been shut down due to the disturbance that caused the loss of synchronism.
Synchronous machines do not easily fall out of step under normal conditions If a
machine tends to speed up or slow down, synchronizing forees tend to keep it in step
Conditions do arise, however, in which operation is such that the synchronizing forces
for one or more machines may not be adequate, and small impacts in the system may
cause these machines to lose synchronism A major shock to the system may also lead
to a loss of synchronism for one or more machines,
A second requitement of reliable electrical service is to maintain the integrity of the
power network. The high-voltage transmission system connects the generating stations
and the Joad centers Interruptions in this network may hinder the flow of power to the
load. This usually requires a study of large geographical areas since almost all power
systems are interconnected with neighboring systems Economic power as well as
emergency power may flow over interconnecting tie lines to help maintain continuity of
service Therefore, successful operation of the system means that these lines must re~
main in setvice if firm power is to be exchanged between the areas of the system
While it is frequently convenient to talk about the power sysiem in the “steady
state,” such a state never exists in the true sense. Random changes in load are taking
place at all times, with subsequent adjustments of generation. Furthermore, major
changes do take place at times, e.g., a fault on the network, failure in a piece of equip-
ment, sudden application of a major load such as a stee! mill, or loss of a line or gen-
erating unit, We may look at any of these as a change from one equilibrium state to
another It might be tempting to say that successful operation requires only that the
new state be a “stable” state (whatever that means) For example, if a generator is
lost, the remaining connected generators must be capable of meeting the load demand;
or if a line is lost, the power it was carrying must be obtainable from another source,
Unfortunately, this view is erroneous in one important aspect: it neglects the dynamics
of the transition from one equilibrium state to another. Synchronism frequently may be
lost in that transition period, or growing oscillations may occur over a transmission line,
eventually leading to its tripping These problems must be studied by the power sys-
tem engineer and fall under the heading “power system stability.”
1.3. Statement of the
joblem
The stability problem is concerned with the behavior of the synchronous machines
after they have been perturbed. If the perturbation does not involve any net change in
power, the machines should return to their original state. If an unbalance between the
supply and demand is created by a change in load, in generation, or in network condi-
tions, a new operating state js necessary. In any case aif interconnected synchronous
machines should remain in synchronism if the system is stable; ie , they should all re-
main operating in parallel and at the same speedPower System Stability 5
The transient following a system perturbation js oscillatory in nature; but if the sys-
tem is stable, these oscillations will be damped toward a new quiescent operating con-
dition These oscillations, however, are reflected as fluctuations in the power flow over
the transmission lines If a certain line connecting two groups of machines undergoes
excessive power fluctuations, it may be tripped out by its protective equipment thereby
disconnecting the two groups of machines. This problem is termed the stability of the
lie line, even though in reality it reflects the stability of the two groups of machines
A statement declaring a power system to be “stable” is rather ambiguous unless
the conditions under which this stability has been examined are clearly stated. This in-
cludes the operating conditions as well as the type of perturbation given to the system,
The same thing can be said about tie-line stability, Since we are concerned here with
the tripping of the line, the power fluctuation that can be tolerated depends on the
initial operating condition of the system, including the line loading and the nature of the
impacts to which it is subjected. These questions have become vitally important with
the advent of large-scale interconnections. In fact, a severe (but improbable) distur-
bance can always be found that will cause instability. Therefore, the disturbances for
which the system should be designed to maintain stability must be deliberately selected
1.3.1 Primitive definition of stability
Having introduced the term “stability,” we now propose a simple nonmathematical
definition of the term that will be satisfactory for elementary problems Later, we will
provide a more rigorous mathematical definition
The problem of interest is one where a power system operating under a steady load
condition is perturbed, causing the readjustment of the voltage angles of the syn-
chronous machines Jf such an occurrence creates an unbalance between the system
generation and load, it results in the establishment of a new steady-state operating con-
dition, with the subsequent adjustment of the voltage angles. The perturbation could
be a majos disturbance such as the loss of a generator, a fault or the loss of a Tine, or a
combination of such events. It could also be a small load or random load changes
occurring under normal operating conditions.
Adjustment to the new operating condition is called the transient period The sys-
tem behavior during this time is called the dynamic system performance, which is of
concern in defining system stability The main criterion for stability is that the syn-
chronous machines maintain synchronism at the end of the transient period
Definition If the oscillatory response of a power system during the transient period
following a disturbance is damped and the system setiles in a finite time to a new
steady operating condition, we say the system is stable If the system is not stable, it
is considered unstable
This primitive definition of stability requires that the system oscillations be damped
This condition is sometimes called asymptotic stability and means that the system con-
tains inherent forces that tend to reduce oscillations. This is a desirable feature in many
systems and is considered necessary for power systems
The definition also excludes continuous oscillation fiom the family of stable sys-
tems, although oscillators are stable in a mathematical sense. The reason is practical
since a continually oscillating system would be undesirable for both the supplier and the
user of electric power Hence the definition describes a practical specification for an ac-
ceptable operating condition‘ Chapter 1
1.3.2. Other stal
ty problems
While the stability of synchronous machines and tie lines is the most important and
common problem, other stability problems may exist, particularly in power systems
having appreciable capacitances In such cases arrangements must be made to avoid
excessive voltages during light load conditions, to avoid damage to equipment, and to
prevent self-excitation of machines
Some of these problems are discussed in Volume 2, while others are beyond the
scope of this book
13.3. Stability of synchronous machines
Distinction should be made between sudden and major changes, which we shall call
large impacts, and smaller and more normal random impacts A fault on the high-
voltage transmission network or the loss of a major generating unit are examples of
large impacts. If one of these large impacts occurs, the synchronous machines may lose
synchronism This problem is referred to in the literature as the transient stability
problem Without detailed discussion, some general comments are in order. First,
these impacts have a finite probability of occurring Those that the system should be de-
signed to withstand must therefore be selected a priori’ Second, the ability of the sys-
tem to survive a certain disturbance depends on its precise operating condition at the
time of the occurrence A change in the system loading, generation schedule, network
interconnections, or type of circuit protection may give completely different results in a
stability study for the same disturbance Thus the transient stability study is a very
specific one, from which the engineer concludes that under given system conditions and
for a given impact the synchronous machines will or will not remain in synchronism
Stability depends strongly upon the magnitude and location of the disturbance and to a
lesser extent upon the initial state or operating condition of the system
Let us now consider a situation where there are no major shocks or impacts, but
rather a random occurrence of small changes in system loading Here we would expect
the system operator to have scheduled enough machine capacity to handle the load. We
would also expect each synchronous machine to be operating on the stable portion of its
power-angle curve, ie, the portion in which the power inereases with incteased angle
In the dynamics of the transition from one operating point to another, to adjust for load
changes, the stability of the machines will be determined by many factors, including the
power-angle curve It is sometimes incorrect to consider a single power-angle curve,
since modern exciters will change the operating curve during the petiod under study
The problem of studying the stability of synchronous machines under the condition of
small load changes has been called “steady-state” stability A more recent and certainly
more appropriate name is dynamic stability In contrast to transient stability, dynamic
stability tends to be a property of the state of the system
Transient stability and dynamic stability are both questions that must be answered
to the satisfaction of the engineer tor successful planning and operation of the system
This attitude is adopted in spite of the fact that an artificial separation between the
two problems has been made in the past. This was simply a convenience to accommo-
date the different approximations and assumptions made in the mathematical treat-
1 Inthe United States the regional committees of the National Electric Reliability Council (NERC)
specify the contingencies against which the system must be proven stablePower System Stability 7
ments of the two problems n support of this viewpoint the following points are
pertinent
First, the availability of high-speed digital computers and modern modeling tech-
niques makes it possible to represent any component of the power system in almost any
degree of complexity required or desired Thus questionable simplifications or assump-
tions are no longer needed and are often not justified
Second, and perhaps more important, in a large interconnected system the full
eflect of a disturbance is felt at the remote parts some time after its occurrence, perhaps
a few seconds Thus different parts of the interconnected system will respond to lo-
calized disturbances at different times Whether they will act to aid stability is difficult
to predict beforehand The problem is aggravated if the initial disturbance causes
other disturbances in neighboring areas due to power swings As these conditions
spread, a chain reaction may result and large-scale interruptions of service may occur
However, in a farge interconnected system, the effect of an impact must be studied over
a telatively long period, usually several seconds and in some cases a few minutes. Per-
formance of dynamic stability studies for such long periods will require the simulation
of system components often neglected in the so-called transient stability studies.
134° Tie-tine oscillations
‘As random power impacts occur during the normal operation of a system, this
added power must be supplied by the generators, The portion supplied by the different
generators under different conditions depends upon electrical proximity to the posi
of impact, energy stored in the rotating masses, governor characteristics, and other
factors The machines therefore are never truly at steady state except when at standstill
Each machine is in continuous oscillation with respect to the others due to the effect of
these random stimuli, These oscillations are reflected in the flow of power in the trans-
mission lines, If the power in 4”) line is monitored, periodic oscillations are observed
to be superimposed on the steady flow Normally, these oscillations are not large and
hence not objectionable.
The situation in a tie line is different in one sense since it connects one group of
machines to another. These two groups are in continuous oscillation with respect to
each other, and this is reflected in the power fiow over the tie line. The situation may
be further complicated by the fact that each machine group in turn is connected to other
groups Thus the tie line under study may in effect be connecting two huge systems In
this case the smallest oscillatory adjustments in the large systems are reflected as sizable
power oscillations in the tie line The question then becomes, To what degree can these
oscillations be tolerated?
The above problem is entirely different from that of maintaining a scheduled
power interchange over the tie line; control equipment can be provided to perform this
function These controllers are usually too slow to interfere with the dynamic oseilla-
tions mentioned above To alter these oscillations, the dynamic response of the com-
ponents of the overall interconnected system must be considered. The problem is not
only in the tie line itself but also in the two systems it connects and in the sensitivity of
control in these systems The electrical strength (admittance) or capacity of the tie
cannot be divorced from this problem. For example, a 40-MW oscillation on a
400-MW tie is a much less scrious problem than the same oscillation on a 100-MW tie.
The oscillation frequency has an effect on the damping characteristics of prime movers,8 Chapter |
exciters, ete Therefore, there is a minimum size of tie that can be effectively made from
the viewpoint of stability
1.4 Effect of an Impact upon System Components
In this section a survey of the effect of impacts is made to estimate the elements that
should be considered in a stability study. A convenient starting point is to relate an im-
pact to a change in power somewhere in the network. Our “test” stimulus will be a
change in power, and we will use the point of impact as our reference point The follow-
ing effects, in whole or in part, may be felt The system frequency will change be-
cause, until the input power is adjusted by the machine governors, the power change
will go to or come from the energy in the rotating masses The change in frequency will
affect the loads, especially the motor loads. A common tule of thumb used among
power system engineers is that a decrease in frequency results in a load decrease of
equal percentage; ie, load regulation is 100% The network bus voltages will be
affected to a lesser degree unless the change in power is accompanied by a change in
reactive power

1.4.1. Loss of synchronism
Any unbalance between the generation and load initiates a transient that causes the
rotors of the synchronous machines to “swing” because net accelerating (or decelerat-
ing) torques are exerted on these rotors If these net torques are sufficiently large to
cause some of the rotors to swing far enough so that one or more machines “slip a
pole,” synchronism is lost. To assure stability, a new equilibrium state must be reached
before any of the machines experience this condition. Loss of synchronism can also
happen in stages, ¢ g., if the initial transient causes an electrical link in the transmission
network to be interrupted during the swing This creates another transient, which when
superimposed on the first may cause synchronism to be lost, .
Let us now consider a severe impact initiated by a sizable generation unbalance,
say excess generation, The major portion of the excess energy will be converted into
kinetic energy. Thus most of the machine rotor angular velocities will increase. A
lesser part will be consumed in the loads and through various losses in the system
However, an appreciable increase in machine speeds may not necessarily mean that
synchronism will be lost The important factor here is the angle difference between
machines, where the rotor angle is measured with respect to a synchronously rotating
reference. This is illustrated in Figure 1 1 in which the rotor angles of the machines in
a hypothetical four-machine system are plotted against time during a transient
In case (a) all the rotor angles increase beyond w radians but all the angle differences
are small, and the system will be stable if it eventually settles to a new angle, In case (b)
itis evident that the machines are separated into two groups where the rotor angles
continue to drift apart This system is unstable
1.4.2. Synchronous machine during a transient
During a transient the system seen by a synchronous machine causes the machine
terminal voltage, rotor angle, and frequency to change. The impedance seen “looking
into” the network at the machine terminal also may change The field-winding voltage
will be affected by:
1, Induced eutrents in the damper windings (or rotor iron) due to sudden changes in
armature currents The time constants for these currents are usually on the order of
less than 0.1 s and are often referred to as “subtransient” effects
2. Induced currents in the field winding due to sudden changes in armature currents
The time constants for this transient are on the order of seconds and are referred to
as “transient” effects
3. Change in rotor voltage due to change in exciter voltage if activated by changes at
the machine terminal. Both subtransient and transient effects are observed Since
the subtransient eflects decay very rapidly, they are usually neglected and only the
transient effects are considered important
Note also that the behavior discussed above depends upon the network
well as the machine parameters
The machine output power will be affected by the change in the rotor-winding EMF
and the rotor position in addition to any changes in the impedance “seen” by the ma-
chine terminals. However, until the speed changes to the point where it is sensed and
corrected by the governor, the change in the output power will come from the stored
energy in the rotating masses. The important parameters here are the kinetic energy in
MW-s per unit MVA (usually called 7) or the machine mechanical time constant 7),
which is twice the stored kinetic energy per MVA.
pedance as10 Chapter 1
When the impact is large, the speeds of all machines change so that they are
sensed by their speed governors. Machines under load frequency control will correct
for the power change. Until this correction is made, each machine’s share will depend
on its regulation or droop characteristic Thus the controlled machines are the ones re~
sponsible for maintaining the system frequency The dynamics of the transition period,
however, are important The key parameters are the governor dynamic characteristics,
In addition, the flow of the tie lines may be altered slightly. Thus some machines
are assigned the requirement of maintaining scheduled flow in the ties. Supplementary
controls are provided to these machines, the basic functions of which are to permit each
control area to supply a given load. The responses of these controls are relatively slow
and their time constants are on the order of seconds This is appropriate since the
scheduled economic loading of machines is secondary in importance to stability
1.8. Methods of Simulation
If we look at a large power system with its numerous machines, lines, and loads and
consider the complexity of the consequences of any impact, we may tend to think it is
hopeless to attempt analysis. Fortunately, however, the time constants of the phenom-
ena may be appreciably different, allowing concentration on the key elements affecting
the transient and the area under study
The first step in a stability study is to make a mathematical model of the system
during the transient. The elements included in the model are those affecting the ac-
celeration (or deceleration) of the machine rotors The complexity of the model de-
pends upon the type of transient and system being investigated Generally, the com-
ponents of the power system that influence the electrical and mechanical torques of the
machines should be included in the model These components are:
The network before, during, and after the transient
The loads and their characteristics
The parameters of the synchronous machines
The excitation systems of the synchronous machines
The mechanical turbine and speed governor
Other important components of the power plant that influence the mechanical
torque
7. Other supplementary controls, such as tie-line controls, deemed necessary in the
mathematical description of the system
Thus the basic ingredients for solution are the knowledge of the initial conditions of
the power system prior to the start of the transient and the mathematical description of
the main components of the system that affect the transient behavior of the synchronous
machines
The number of power system components included in the study and the com-
plexity of their mathematical description will depend upon many factors. In general,
however, differential equations are used to describe the various components Study of
the dynamic behavior of the system depends upon the nature of these differential
equations
1.5.1 Linearized system equal
ns.
If the system equations are linear (or have been linearized), the techniques of linear
system analysis are used to study dynamic behavior The most common method is toPower System Stability u
simulate each component by its transfer function The various transfer function blocks
are connected to represent the system under study. The system performance may then
be analyzed by such methods as root-locus plots, frequency domain analysis (Nyquist
criteria), and Routh’s criterion.
The above methods have been frequently used in studies pertaining to small systems
ora small number of machines Fat larger systems the state-space model has been used
more frequently in connection with system studies described by linear differential equa-
tions Stability characteristics may be determined by examining the eigenvalues of the
A matrix, where A is defined by the equation
k= Ax +Bu ap
where x is an n vector denoting the states of the system and A is a coefficient matrix
The system inputs are represented by ther vector u, and these inputs are related mathe-
matically to differential equations by ann x 7 matrix B_ This description has the ad-
vantage that A may be time varying and u may be used to represent several inputs
if necessary
1.5.2 Large system with nenlinear equations
The system equations for 4 transient stability study are usually nonlinear Here the
system is described by a large set of coupled nonlinear differential equations of the form
% = fxn (2)
where fis an nm vector of nonlinear functions
Determining the dynamic behavior of the system described by (1 2) is a more diffi-
cult task than that of the linearized system of (I 1), Usually cime solutions of the non-
linear differential equations are obtained by numerical methods with the aid of digital
computers, and this is the method usually used in power system stability studies
Stability of synchronous machines is usually decided by behavior of their rotor angles,
as discussed in Section 141 More recently, modern theories of stability of nonlinear
systems have been applied to the study of power system transients to determine the
stability of synchronous machines without obtaining time solutions Such efforts,
while they seem to offer considerable promise, are still in the research stage and not in
common use Both linear and nonlinear equations will be developed in following

The Elementary Mathematical Model
A stable power system is one in which the synchronous machines, when perturbed,
will either return to their original state if there is no net change of power or will acquire
a new state asymptotically without losing synchronism Usually the perturbation causes
a transient that is oscillatory in nature; but if the system is stable, the oscillations will
be damped
The question then arises, What quantity or signal, preferably electrical, would
enable us to test for stability? One convenient quantity is the machine rotor angle
measured with respect to a synchronously rotating reference If the difference in angle
between any two machines increases indefinitely or if the oscillatory transient is not
sufficiently damped, the system is unstable The principal subject of this chapter is the
study of stability based largely on machine-angle behavior
2.1. Swing Equation
The swing equation governs the motion of the machine rotor relating the inertia
torque to the resultant of the mechanical and electrical torques on the rotor; ie!
Jé= 7, Nem QD
where J is the moment of inertia in kg-m? of all rotating masses attached to the shaft,
Gis the mechanical angle of the shaft in radians with respect to a fixed reference, and
T, is the accelerating torque in newton meters (N-m) acting on the shaft (See Kim-
bark [1] for an excellent discussion of units and a dimensional analysis of this equa-
tion.) Since the machine is a generator, the driving torque Ij, is mechanical and the
retarding or load torque 7, is electrical. Thus we write
Ty= Te TE Nem (2.2)
which establishes a useful sign convention, namely, that in which a positive Ty ac-
celerates the shaft, whereas a positive 7, is a decelerating torque The angular refer-
ence may be chosen relative to a synchronously rotating reference frame moving with
The dot notation is used to signily derivatives with respect to time Thus

4 = (wat + @) + 6, Tad (2.3)
where a is a constant, The angle a is needed if 5, is measured from an axis different
from the angular reference frame; for example, in Chapter 4 a particular choice of the
reference for the rotor angle 4,, gives a = r/2and 8 = wal + #/2 + bn. From (23)
we see that # may be replaced by é,, in (2.1), with the result
Bea = Jin = T, Nom 24)
where J is the moment of inertia in kg-m?, 5, is the mechanical (subscript m) torque
angle in rad with respect to a synchronously rotating reference frame, wy is the shaft
angular velocity in rad/s, and [, is the accelerating torque in N-m
Another form of (2.4) that is sometimes useful is obtained by multiplying both sides
by wp, the shaft angular velocity in rad/s. Recalling that the product of torque T and
angular velocity w is the shaft power P in watts, we have
Tiindm = Pa — Ps W (25)
The quantity Jaq is called the inertia constant and is denoted by M. (See Kimbark
(1] pp. 22-27 and Stevenson [2], pp. 336-40 for excellent discussions of the inertia
constant) It is related to the kinetic energy of the rotating masses W,, where
W, = (1/2) Jo} joules Then M is computed as
M = Sein = 2Wy om VS 26
It may seem rather strange to call M a constant since it depends upon w, which
certainly varies during a transient On the other hand the angular frequency does not
change by a large percentage before stability is lost To illustrate: for 60 Hz, w, =
377 rad/s, and a 1% change in w, is equal to 377 rad/s A constant slip of 1% of the
value of w, for one second will change the angle of the rotor by 3.77 rad Certainly,
this would lead to loss of synchronism
The equation of motion of the rotor is called the swing equation. It is given in
the literature in the form of (2 4) or in terms of power,
Mi, = Midy = Py - Pe W (27)
where M is in J-s, 5, is in rad, w,, is in tad/s, and P is in W.
In relating the machine inertial performance to the network, it would be more
useful to write (2 7) in terms of an electrical angle that can be conveniently related
to the position of the rotor Such an angle is the rorque angle 6, which is the angle
between the field MMF and the resultant MMF in the air gap, both rotating at syn-
chronous speed It is also the electrical angle between the generated EMF and the
resultant stator voltage phasors
The torque angle 6, which is the same as the electrical angle 4,, is related to
the rotor mechanical angle 6,, (measured from a synchronously rotating frame) by
6 = 8, = (p/2)bm (2.8)
where p is the number of poles. (In Europe the practice is to write 3, = péy, where p is
the number of pole pairs )

61 in ANSI standards ANSI Y 105. 1968 Hence wR =) in every caseThe Elementary Mathematical Model 15
For simplicity we drop the subscript ¢ and write simply 4, which is always under-
stood to be the electrical angle defined by (2 8)
From (2 7) and (2 8) we write
QM/p)é = QM/p)o = P, W (2.9)
which relates the accelerating power to the electrical angle @ and to the angular velocity
of the revolving magnetic field
In most problems of interest there will be a large number of equations like (2.9),
one for cach generator shaft (and motor shaft too if the motor is large enough to
warrant detailed representation) In such large systems problems we find it convenient
to normalize the power equations by dividing all equations by a common three-phase
voltampere base quantity Sy; _ Then (2 9) becomes a per unit (pu) equation
(2M /pSx)8 = 2M /pSes)o = Pa[Ses = Poy a 2.10)
where M, p, 6, and w are in the same units as before; but P is now in pu (noted by
the subscript u)
2.2. Units
Ithas been the practice in the United States to provide inertial data for rotating
machines in English units The machine nameplate usually gives the rated shaft speed
in revolutions per minute (r/min). The form of the swing equation we use must be
in MKS units (or pu) but the coefficients, particularly the moments of inertia, will
usually be derived from a mixture of MKS and English quantities
We begin with the swing equation in N-m
QU /p)b = QI/p)e = T, Nem QM)
Now normalize this equation by dividing by @ base quantity equal to the rated torque
at rated speed
Ty 3 far = 60S ar /20my (2.12)
where Spy is the three-phase VA tating and ng is the tated shaft speed in r/min
Dividing (2 11) by (212) and substituting 120 fx /ng for p, we compute
(J ?n} /900., 55) = T/Ty = Tay PU (2.13)
where we have substituted the base system radian frequency we = 2x fe for the base
frequency Note that o in (2 13) is in rad/s and Ty, is in pu
The U.S. practice has been to supply /, the moment of inertia, as a quantity usually
called WR?, given in units of lbm-ft?, “The consistent English unit for J is slug-ft? or
WR?/g where g is the acceleration of gravity (32,17398 ft/s?) We compute the cor-
responding MKS quantity as
7 WR? slug-ft? | 1 felbfis? | 746 Ws

Substituting into (2 13), we write

‘We now define the important quantity
HE Wy/Ses § (2.16)

Then we write the swing equation in the form most useful in practice:
QH/op)o = T,, pu Q17)
where # is in s, a is in rad/s, and Z,is in pu. Note that w is the angular velocity of
the revolving magnetic field and is thus related directly to the network voltages and
currents For this reason it is common to give the units of w as electrical rad/s
Note also that the final form of the swing equation has been adapted for machines
with any number of poles, since all machines on the same system synchronize to the
same wp
‘Another form of the swing equation, sometimes quoted in the literature, involves
some approximation It is particularly used with the classical modet of the synchronous
machine Recognizing that the angular speed w is nearly constant, the pu accelerating
power P, is numerically nearly equal to the accelerating torque T, A modified (and
approximate) form of the swing equation becomes
(2H/wp)e & P, pu 218)
The quantity H is often given for a particular machine normalized to the base VA rating
for that machine. This is convenient since these machine-normalized H quantities are
usually predictable in size and can be estimated for machines that do not physically
exist Curves for estimating H are given in Figures 21 and 22 The quantities taken
from these curves must be modified for use in system studies by converting from the
machine base VA to the system base VA. Thus we compute
Hse = Hesci(Snsmach / S035) $ (2.19)
The value Of Hy, is usually in the range of 1-5 Values for Hy vary over a much
wider range With Sys, = 100 MVA values of Hy, from a few tenths of a second
(for small generators) to 25-30 s (for large generators) will often be used in the same
study. Typical values of 7 (in MJ) are given in Appendix D.
2.3. Mechanical Torque
The mechanical torques of the prime movers for large generators, both steam and
waterwheel turbines, are functions of speed. (See Venikov [6], Sec 1 3, and Crary [7],
Vol II, Sec 27) However we should carefully distinguish between the case of the un-
regulated machine (not under active governor control) and the regulated (governed)
caseThe Elementary Mathematical Model 7

2.3.1 Unregulated machines
For a fixed gate or valve position (ie, when the machine is not under active gov-
ernor control) the torque speed characteristic is nearly linear over a limited range at
rated speed, as shown in Figure 2 3(a) No distinction seems to be made in the literature
between steady-state and transient characteristics in this respect Figure 2.3(a) shows
that the prime-mover speed of a machine operating at a fixed gate or valve position
will drop in response to an increase in load. The value of the turbine torque coefficient
suggested by Crary [7] is equal to the loading of the machine in pu This can be veri-
fied as follows, From the fundamental relationship between the mechanical torque

2.3.2 Regulated machines
In regulated machines the speed control mechanism is responsible for controlling
the throttle valves to the steam turbine or the gate position in hydroturbines, and theThe Elementary Mathematical Mode! 9
mechanical torque is adjusted accordingly This occurs under normal operating condi-
tions and during disturbances
To bestable under normal conditions, the torque speed characteristic of the turbine
speed control system should have a “droop characteristic”; ie, a drop in turbine
speed should accompany an increase in load. Such a characteristic is shown in Fig-
ure 2 3(b)_ A typical “droop” or “speed regulation” characteristic is 5% in the United
States (4% in Europe). This means that a load pickup from no load (power) to full
load (power) would correspond to a speed drop of 5% if the speed load characteristic
is assumed to be linear The droop (regulation) equation is derived as follows: from
Figure 2.3(b), Im = Tyo + Ta, and Tma = ~W,/R, where R is the regulation in rad/
Noms Thus
Tm = Tro — (0 ~ @x)/R Nom (2.25)
Multiplying (2 25) by og, we can write
Pu % Tix = Pao — (ax /R)@s (2.26)

As previously mentioned, R, is usually set at 005 in the United States
We also note that the “effective” regulation in a power system could be appreciably
different from the value 0.05 if some of the machines are not under active governor
control. If Sp is the sum of the ratings of the machines under governor control, and
DSip is the sum of the ratings of all machines, then the effective pu regulation is
given by
Rue = RLS /ESs0) (2.30)
Similarly, if @ system base other than that of the machine is used in a stability
study, the change in mechanical power in pu on the system base Pmas is given by
Paaw = ~(Ss@av/ Sey) pu (2.31)
A block diagram representing (2.28) and (2.31) is shown in Figure 2.4 where
K = Ss/Sin
The droop characteristic shown in Figure 2.3(b) is obtained in the speed control
system with the help of feedback. It will be shown in Volume 2 that without feed-
back the speed control mechanism is unstable, Finally we should point out that the
steady-state regulation characteristic determines the ultimate contribution of each
machine to a change in load in the power system and fixes the resulting system fre-
quency error20 Chapter 2

During transients the discrepancy between the mechanical and electrical torques
for the various machines results in speed changes The speed control mechanism for
each machine under active governor controt will attempt to adjust its output accord-
ing to its regulation characteristic Two points can be made here:
1 For a particular machine the regulation characteristic for a small (and sudden)
change in speed may be considerably different in magnitude from its overall average
regulation
2. In attempting to adjust the mechanical torque to correspond to the speed change,
time lags are introduced by the various delays in the feedback elements of the speed
control system and in the steam paths; therefore, the dynamic response of the turbine
could be appreciably different from that indicated by the steady-state regulation
characteristic This subject will be dealt with in greater detail in Volume 2
2.4 Electrical Torque
In general, the electrica] torque is produced by the interaction between the three
stator cireuits, the field circuit, and other cireuits such as the damper windings. Since
the three stator circuits are connected to the rest of the system, the terminal voltage
is determined in part by the external network, the other machines, and the loads. The
flux linking each circuit in the machine depends upon the exciter output voltage, the
loading of the magnetic circuit (saturation), and the current in the different windings
Whether the machine is operating at synchronous speed or asynchronously affects all
the above factors. Thus a comprehensive discussion of the electrical torque depends
upon the synchronous machine representation If all the circuits of the machine are
taken into account, discussion of the electrical torque can become rather involved
Such a detailed discussion will be deferred to Chapter 4. For the present we simply
note that the electrical torque depends upon the flux linking the stator windings and
the cuzrents in these windings. If the instantaneous values of these flux linkages and
currents are known, the correct instantaneous value of the electrical torque may be
determined. As the rotor moves, the flux linking each stator winding changes since
the inductances between that winding and the rotor circuits are functions of the rotor
position These flux linkage relations are often simplified by using Park’s transforma-
tion A modified form of Park’s transformation will be used here (see Chapter 4)
Under this transformation both currents and flux linkages (and hence voltages) are
transformed into two fictitious windings located on axes that are 90° apart and fixed
with respect to the rotor One axis coincides with the center of the magnetic poles of
the rotor and is called the direct axis The other axis lies along the magnetic neutral
axis and is called the quadrature axis Expressions for the electrical quantities such as
power and torque are developed in terms of the direct and quadrature axis voltages (or
flux linkages) and currentsThe Elementary Mathematical Model 21
A simpler mathematical model, which may be used for stability studies, divides the
electrical torque into two main components, the synchronous torque and a second com-
ponent that includes all other electrical torques We explore this concept briefly as an
aid to understanding the generator behavior during transients
2.4.1 Synchronous torque
The synchronous torque is the most important component of the electrical torque.
It is produced by the interaction of the stator windings with the fundamental com-
ponent of the air gap flux. It is dependent upon the machine terminal voltage, the rotor
angle, the machine reactances, and the so-called quadrature axis EMF, which may be
thought of as an effective rotor EMF that is dependent on the armature and rotor eur
rents and is a function of the exciter response Also, the network configuration affects
the value of the terminal voltage
242 Other electrical torques
During a twansient, other extraneous electrical torques are developed in a syn-
chronous machine The most important component is associated with the damper
windings. While these asynchronous torques are usually small in magnitude, their effect
on stability may not be negligible The most important effects are the following
1 Positive-sequence damping results from the interaction between the positive-sequence
air gap flux and the rotor windings, particularly the damper windings. In general,
this effect is beneficial since it tends to reduce the magnitude of the machine oscilla-
tions, especially after the first swing It is usually assumed to be proportional to the
slip frequency, which is nearly the case for small slips
Negattve-sequence braking results from the interaction between the negative-sequence
air gap flux during asymmetrical faults and the damper windings Since the nega-
tive-sequence slip is 2 — s, the torque is always retarding to the rotor Its magnitude
is significant only when the rotor damper winding resistance is high
3. The de braking is produced by the de component of the armature current during
faults, which induces currents in the rotor winding of fundamental frequency. Their
interaction produces 4 torque that is always retarding to the rotor
It should be emphasized that if the correct expression for the instantaneous elec-
trical torque is used, all the above-mentioned components of the electrical torque will
be included In some studies approximate expressions for the torque are used, eg ,
when considering quasi-steady-state conditions Here we usually make an estimate of
the components of the torque other than the synchronous torque
2.5 Power-Angle Curve of a Synchronous Machine
Before we leave the subject of electrical torque (or power), we return momentarily to
synchronous power to discuss a simplified but very useful expression for the relation
between the power output of the machine and the angle of its rotor
Consider two sources V = V/Q and E = £/5 connected through a reactance x as
shown in Figure 2 S{a)> Note that the source V'is chosen as the reference. A current

Fig, 25. A simple two-machine system: (a) schematic representation, (b) power-angle curve
T = 1/0 flows between the two sources We can show that the power P is given by
P = (EV/x) sind (232)
Since E, V, and x are constant, the relation between P and 6 is a sine curve, as shown
in Figure 2 5(b). We note that the same power is delivered by the source F and received
by the source V since the network is purely reactive
Consider a round rotor machine connected to an infinite bus. At steady state the
machine can be represented approximately by the above circuit if V is the terminal
voltage of the machine, which is the infinite bus voltage; x is the direct axis synchronous
reactance; and £ is the machine excitation voltage, which is the EMF along the quadra-
ture axis We say approximately because such factors as magnetic circuit saturation and
the difference between direct and quadrature axis reluctances are overlooked in this
simple representation But (2.32) is essentially correct for a round rotor machine at
steady state Equation (2.32) indicates that if £, V, and x are constant, EV/x is a
constant that we may designate as Py to write P = Py sin 6; and the power output of
the machine is a function only of the angle 5 associated with E Note that E can be
chosen to be any convenient EMF, not necessarily the excitation voltage; but then the
appropriate x and 8 must be defined accordingly
studies
2.5.1 Classical representation of a synchronous machine in stabi
The EMF of the machine (i, the voltage corresponding to the current in the main
field winding) can be considered as having two components: a component E’ that cor-
responds to the flux linking the main field winding and a component that counteracts
the armature reaction, The latter can change instantaneously because it corresponds to
currents, but the former (which corresponds to flux linkage) cannot change instantly,The Elementary Mathematical Model 23
‘When a change in the network occurs suddenly, the flux linkage (and hence E") will
not change, but currents will be ptoduced in the armature; hence other currents will be
induced in the various rotor circuits to keep this flux linkage constant. Both the arma-
ture and rotor currents will usually have ac and de components as required to match
the ampere-turns of various coupled coils The flux will decay according to the effective
time constant of the field circuit At no load this time constant is on the order of sev-
eral seconds, while under load it is reduced considerably but still on the order of one
second or higher
From the above we can see that for a period of less than a second the natural char-
acteristic of the field winding of the synchronous machine tends to maintain constant
fiux linkage and hence constant £’. Exciters of the conventional type do not usually
respond fast enough and their ceilings are not high enough to appreciably alter this
picture. Furthermore, it has been observed that during a disturbance the combined
effect of the armature reaction and the excitation system is to help maintain constant
flux linkage for a period of a second or two. This period is often considered adequate
for determining the stability of the machine. Thus in some stability studies the assump-
tion is commonly made that the main field flux linkage of a machine is constant
The main field-winding flux is almost the same as a fictitious flux that would create
an EMF behind the machine direct axis transient reactance. The model used for the
synchronous machine is shown in Figure 2.6, where xj is the direct axis transient
reactance
Fig 26 Representation of a synchronous machine by # constant voltage behind transient reactance
The constant voltage source £/3 is determined from the initial conditions, ic,
pretransient conditions, During the transient the magnitude £ is held constant, while
the angle 6 is considered as the angle between the rotor position and the terminal
voltage V

émay vary The initial value of 6, called dp, is 8.06"24 Chapter 2
During the transient period, assuming that is held constant, the machine power as
a function of the angle @ is also given by a power-angle curve Thus
P = (EV/xj)sing = Pysind (233)

25.2 Synchro
Consider a synchronous machine the terminal voltage of which is constant. This
is the case when the machine is connected to a very large power system (infinite bus).
Let us assume that the machine can be represented by a constant voltage magnitude be-
hind a constant reactance, as shown in Figure 26 The power is given by (2 32) Let the
initial power delivered by the machine be P,, which corresponds to a rotor angle 5)
(which is the same as the angle of the EMF £). Let us assume that 6 changes from its
initial value 6 by a small amount 8,;i¢, 8 = 4, + 5, From (2 32) P also changes to
P= P, + Py Then we may write
Py + Py = Pysin(& + 4) = Pu(sin a c0s8, + coséy sin és) (2.34)

and since Py = Py sin by,

efficient and is sometimes designated P, From (2.35}we also observe that

In the above analysis the appropriate values of x and £ should be used to obtain
Py. In dynamic studies xj and the voltage £’ are used, while in steady-state stability
analysis a saturated steady-state reactance x, is used. If the control equipment of the
machine is slow or inoperative, it is important that the machine be operating such that

This is the same as having a positive synchronizing power coefficient This criterion was
used in the past to indicate the so-called “steady-state stability limit.”
2.6 Natural Frequencies of Oscillation of a Synchronous Machine
A synchronous machine, when perturbed, has several modes of oscillation with re-
spect to the rest of the system. There are also cases where coherent groups of machines
oscillate with respect to other coherent groups of machines. These oscillations cause
fluctuations in bus voltages, system frequencies, and tie-line power flows. It is im-
portant that these oscillations should be small in magnitude and should be damped if
the system is to be stable in the sense of the definition of stability given in Section 1.2.1The Elementary Mathematical Model 25
In this section we will illustrate the inherent oscillatory nature of @ synchronous
machine by the following example
Example 22
A bvo-pole synchronous machine is connected to an infinite bus with voltage 7
through a reactance x as in Figure 2 S(a)_ The voltage F remains constant, and a small
change in speed is given to the machine {the rotor is given a small twist); ie,
© = wy + eu(¢), where u(t) is a unit siep function, Let the resulting angle change be
5, Let the damping be negligible, Compute the change in angle as a function of time
and determine its frequency of oscillation.

which has the solution of the form
8) = MIP, sin VP,Sq/Mt elect rad (238)
Equation (2.38) indicates that the angular frequency of oscillation of the synchronous
machine with respect to the rest of the power system is given by VP.3m/M_ This fre-
quency is usually referred to as the natural frequency of the synchronous machine
it should be noted that P, is a function of the operating point on the power-angle
characteristic Different machines, especially different machine types, have different
inertia constants Therefore, the different machines in a power system may have some-
what different natural frequencies
We now estimate the order of magnitude of this frequency From (2.6) and (2 16)
we write M/Spy = 2H/oey OF P,Sqs/M = P,o_/2H where P, is in pu, &y is in 1ad/s, and
Hisins, Now P, is the synchronizing power coefficient in pu (on a base of the machine
three-phase rating). If the initial operating angle 8 is small, P, is approximately equal
to the amplitude of the power-angle curve We must also be careful with the units
For example, a system having P,/Sp; = 2 pu, H = 8,
Woe = VEX STA x 8) = 685 rad/s
fox = 685/28 = 109 Hz
If MKS units are used, we write
fous = (1/28) Vaf(PFSa 1) (239)
where f= system frequency in Hz
Sgs = three-phase machine rating in MVA
H = inertia constant in s
P, = synchronizing power coefficient in MW/rad
Next, we should point out that a system of two finite machines can be reduced to a
single equivalent finite machine against an infinite bus The equivalent inertia is
Ih fd, + 42) and the angle is da — 62426 Chapter 2
Thus we conclude that each machine oscillates with respect to other machines, each
coherent group of machines oscillates with respect to other groups of machines, and
soon. The frequencies of oscillations depend on the synchronizing power coefficients
and on the inertia constants.
2.7 System of One Machine against an Infinite Bus—The Classical Model
An infinite bus is a source of invariable frequency and voltage (both in magnitude
and angle). A major bus of a power system of very large capacity compared to the rating
of the machine under consideration is approximately an infinite bus, The inertia of
the machines in a large system will make the bus voltage of many high-voltage buses
essentially constant for transients occurring outside that system
Consider a power system consisting of one machine connected to an infinite bus
through a transmission line A schematic representation of this system is shown in
Figure 2 7(a)
@ *
Fig 27 One machine connected to an infinite bus through a transmission line: (a) one-line diagram
(b) equivalent circuit
The equation of motion of the rotor of the finite machine is given by the swing
equation (2.7) ot 2.10) To obtain a time solution for the rotor angle, we need to
develop expressions for the mechanical and the electrical powers. In this section the
simplest mathematical model is used This model, which will be referred to as the
classical model, requires the following assumptions:
1 The mechanical power input remains constant during the period of the transient
2 Damping or asynchronous power is negligible
3. The synchronous machine can be represented (electrically) by a constant voltage
source behind a transient reactance (see Section 2.5 1)
4, The mechanical angle of the synchronous machine rotor coincides with the electrical
phase angie of the voltage behind transient reactance
5. Ifa local load is fed at the terminal voltage of the machine, it ean be represented by
a constant impedance (or admittance) to neutral
The period of interest is the first swing of the rotor angle 8 and is usually on the
order of one second or less. At the start of the transient, and assuming that the impact
initiating the transient creates a positive accelerating power on the machine rotor, the
rotor angle increases. If the rotor angle increases indefinitely, the machine loses
synchronism and stability is lost If it reaches a maximum and then starts to decrease,
the resulting motion will be oscillatory and with constant amplitude Thus according
to this model and the assumptions used, stability is decided in the first swing. (If
damping is present the amplitude will decrease with time, but in the classical model
there is very little damping )The Elementary Mathem a7

By using a ¥-A transformation, the node representing the terminal voltage V, in
Figure 2.7 can be eliminated The nodes to be retained (in addition to the reference
node) are the internal voltage behind the transient reactance node and the infinite bus.
These are shown in Figure 2.8 as nodes 1 and 2 respectively Also shown in Figure 28

Examining Figure 29, we note that the power-angle curve of @ synchronous
machine connected to an infinite bus is a sine curve displaced from the origin vertically
by an amount P, which represents the power dissipation in the equivalent network, and
horizontally by the angle y, which is determined by the real component of the transfer
admittance Viz, In the special case where the shunt load at the machine terminal V,
is open and where the transmission network is reactive, we can easily prove that
Pc = and y =.0. In this case the power-angle curve becomes identical to that given

Solution
The equations for 6 were obtained in Example 24 for the faulted network and for
the system with the fault cleared These equations are nonlinear; therefore, time solu-
tions will be obtained by numerical methods A partial survey of these methods is
given in Appendix B
To illustrate the procedure used in numerical integration, the modified Euler
method is used in this example This method is outlined in Appendix B
First, the swing equation is replaced by the two first-order differential equations:
be ot) op, = ea /2H)P, ~ P.O) (2.42)
The time domain is divided into increments called Ar_ With the values of 5 and w and
their derivatives known at some time f, an estimate is made of the values of these vari-
ables at the end of an interval of time Ar, ie, at time 1+ At These are called
the predicted values of the variables and are based only on the values of 5(t), #(/),
and their derivatives. From the calculated values of 5(f + A‘) and w(s + 4), values
of the derivatives at ¢+ Af are calculated A corsected value of 5(¢ + Az) and
w(t + Ad) is obtained using the mean derivative over the interval. The process can
be repeated until a desited precision is achieved At the end of this repeated prediction
and correction a final value of 6(¢ + At) and w(¢ + Ar) is obtained. The process is
then repeated for the next interval The procedure is outlined in detail in Chapter 10
of [8]. From Example 24 the initial value of 4 is sin~'0 368, and the equationThe Elementary Mathematical Model 31

The results of the numerical integration of the system equations, performed with the
aid of a digital computer, are shown in Figure 213. The time solution is carried out
for two successive peaks of the angle @ The first peak of 48 2° is reached at ¢ = 0.38 s,
after which 6 is decreased until it reaches a minimum value of about 13 2° at ¢ = 082 s,
and the oscillation of the rotor angle 6 continues
For the system under study and for the given impact, synchronism is not lost (since
the angle 5 does not increase indefinitely) and the synchronous machine is stable

Equation (2 49) gives the relative speed of the machine with respect to a reference
frame moving at constant speed (by the definition of the angle 6). For stability this
speed must be zero when the acceleration is either zero or is opposing the rotor motion
Thus for a rotor that is accelerating, the condition of stability is that a value Bom

Fora system of one machine connected to an infinite bus and for a given fault and

machine system). The maximum angle 6,,., corresponds to the angle 4,, on the fault-

trated in Figure 2.15. The angle at ¢ = 0 is 21.09° and is indicated by the intersection

2.9 Classical Model of a Multimachine System
The same assumptions used for a system of one machine connected to an infinite
bus are often assumed valid for a multimachine system
1 Mechanical power input is constant
2. Damping or asynchronous power is negligible
3. Constant-voltage-behind-transient-reactance model for the synchronous machines
is valid
4 The mechanical rotor angle of a machine coincides with the angle of the voltage
behind the transient reactance
5. Loads are represented by passive impedances
This model is useful for stability analysis but is limited to the study of transients for
only the “first swing” or for periods on the order of one second
Assumption 2 is improved upon somewhat by assuming a linear damping character-
istic. A damping torque (or power) Dw is frequently added to the inertial torque (or
power) in the swing equation The damping coefficient D includes the various damping,
torque components, both mechanical and electrical. Values of the damping coefficient
usually used in stability studies are in the range of 1-3 pu [9, 10, 11, 12) This repre-
sents turbine damping, generator electrical damping, and the damping effect of electrical
loads. However, much larger damping coefficients, up to 25 pu, are reported in the
literature due to generator damping alone [7, 13]
Assumption 5, suggesting foad representation by a constant impedance, is made for
convenience in many classical studies Loads have their own dynamic behavior, which
is usually not precisely known and varies from constant impedance to constant MVA.
This is a subject of considerable speculation, the major point of agreement being that
constant impedance is an inadequate representation Load representation can have a
marked effect on stability results
The electrical network obtained for an n-machine system is as shown in Figure 2.17.
Node 0 is the reference node (neutral). Nodes 1, 2,...., are the internal machine buses,
or the buses to which the voltages behind transient reactances are applied Passive
impedances connect the various nodes and connect the nodes to the reference at load
buses. As in the one-machine system, the initial values of Ej, E,.....E, are de-
termined from the pretransient conditions. Thus a load-flow study for pretransient36 Chapter 2

2.10 Classical Stability Study of a Nine-bus System
The classical model of a synchronous machine may be used to study the stability of
a power system for a period of time during which the system dynamic response is de-
pendent largely on the stored kinetic energy in the rotating masses For many power
systems this time is on the ordes of one second or less The classical model is the
simplest model used in studies of power system dynamics and requires a minimum.
amount of data; hence, such studies can be conducted in a relatively short time and at
minimum cost. Furthermore, these studies can provide useful information For ex-
ample, they may be used as preliminary studies to identify problem ateas that require
further study with more detailed modeling Thus a large number of cases for which the
system exhibits a definitely stable dynamic response to the disturbances under study are
eliminated from further consideration
A classical study will be presented here on a small nine-bus power system that has
three generators and three loads. A one-line impedance diagram for the system is given
in Figure 2.18 The prefault normal load-flow solution is given in Figure 219 Gen-
erator data for the three machines are given in Table 2.1. This system, while small, is
large enough to be nontrivial and thus permits the illustration of a number of stability
concepts and results.

2.10.2 Preliminary calculations
To prepare the system data for a stability study, the following preliminary calcula-
tions are made:
1. All system data are converted to a common base; a system base of 100 MVA is
frequently used
2. The loads are converted to equivalent impedances or admittances. The needed data
for this step are obtained from the load-flow study. Thus if a certain load bus has a
voltage V,, power P,, reactive power Q,, and current 7, flowing into a Joad ad-
mittance ¥, = G, + jB,, then
Pr + iQ = Wilf = VUPNG, ~ iB) = ViCG, - iB.)
The equivalent shunt admittance at that bus is given by
Ye = P/VE ~ (Qi /¥E) (2.60)
3. The internal voltages of the generators F, /djy are calculated from the load-flow data
These internal angles may be computed from the pretransient terminal voltages V/a.
as follows Let the terminal voltage be used temporarily as a reference, as shown in
Figure 220. If we define J = 1, + jl, then from the relation P + jQ = VT* we have
1, + jh = (P ~ jQ)/V. But since £/3 = V+ jx}T, we compute
Eb! = (V + Oxi/V) + i(Pxi/V) @61)
The initial generator angle 4) is then obtained by adding the pretsansient voltage40

The ¥ matrix for each network condition is calculated. The following steps are
usually needed:
a. The equivalent load impedances (or admittances) are connected between the load
‘buses and the reference node; additional nodes are provided for the internal gen-
erator voltages (nodes 1,2, in Figure 2.17) and the appropriate values of
xjare connected between these nodes and the generator terminal nodes. Also,
simulation of the fault impedance is added as required, and the admittance matrix
is determined for each switching condition
b All impedance elements are converted to admittance:
c. Elements of the ¥ matrix are identified as follows: Y,, is the sum of all the ad-
mittances connected to node i, and Y,, is the negative of the admittance between
node i and node j
Finally, we eliminate all the nodes except for the internal generator nodes and ob-
tain the ¥ matrix for the reduced network The reduction can be achieved by matrix
operation if we recall that all the nodes have zero injection currents except for the in-
ternal generator nodes This property is used to obtain the network reduction as

Example 26
The technique of solving a classical transient stability problem is illustrated by con-
ducting a study of the nine-bus system, the data for which is given in Figures 2.18 and
219 and Table 2.1 The disturbance initiating the transient is a three-phase fault
‘occurring neat bus 7 at the end of line 5-7. The fault is cleared in five cycles (0 083 s) by
opening line 5-7
For the purpose of this study the generators are to be represented by the classical
model and the loads by constant impedances. The damping torques are neglected The
system base is 100 MVA
Make all the preliminary calculations needed for a transient stability study so that
all coefficients in (2.56) are known
Solution
The objective of the study is to obtain time solutions for the rotor angles of the gen-
erators after the transient is introduced. These time solutions are called “swing curves *
In the classical model the angles of the generator internal voltages behind transient
reactances are assumed to correspond to the rotor angles. Therefore, mathematically,
‘we are to obtain a solution for the set of equations (2.56) The initial conditions, de-
noted by adding the subscript 0, are given by Gj. = 0 and 59 obtained from (2.57)
Preliminary calculations (following the steps outlined in Section 2 10 2) are:
1 The system base is chosen to be 100 MVA. All impedance data are given to this base
2. The equivalent shunt admittances for the loads are given in pu as

bus 2 and bus 7 is the sum of the generator and transformer reactances (0.1198 +
0.0625), The prefault network admittances including the load equivalents are given
in Table 2.2, and the corresponding ¥ matrix is given in Table 23 The ¥ matrix for
the faulted network and for the network with the fault cleared are similarly obtained
The results are shown in Tables 2 4 and 2.5 respectively.
5 Elimination of the network nodes other than the generator internal nodes by net-
work reduction as outlined in step 5 is done by digital computer. The resulting re-
duced ¥ matrices are shown in Table 2.6 for the prefault network, the faulted net-
work, and the network with the fault cleared respectively
We now have the values of the constant voltages behind transient reactances for
all three generators and the reduced Y matrix for each network. Thus all coefficients
of (2.56) are available

time, The fault is cleared in five cycles by opening line 5-7 of Figure 2.18. Plot the
angles 5, 8;, and 6, and their difference versus time—- = has
Solution
The problem is to solve the set of equations (2 56) form = 3 and D = 0. All the
coefficients for the faulted network and the network with the fault cleared have been
determined in Example 2.6 Since the set (2.56) is nonlinear, the desired time solutions
for 6,, 6;, and 8, are obtained by numerical integration, A brief survey of numerical
integration of differential equations is given in Appendix B (For hand calculations

in Figure 2 22 where we can see that the system is stable The maximum angle difference
is about 85° This is the value of 6, at ¢ = 0.43 s Note that the solution is carried
out for two “swings” to show that the second swing is not greater than the first for
cither 8, or 8, To determine whether the system is stable or unstable for the par-
ticular transient under study, it is sufficient to carry out the time solution for one
swing only If the rotor angles (or the angle differences) reach maximum values and
then decrease, the system is stable, If any of the angle differences increase indefinitely,
the system is unstable because at least one machine will lose synchronism
2.11 Shortcomings of the Classical Model
System stability depends on the characteristics of all the components of the power
system. This includes the response characteristics of the control equipment on the
turbogenerators, on the dynamic characteristics of the loads, on the supplementary
control equipment installed, and on the type and settings of protective equipment used
The machine dynamic response to any impact in the system is oscillatory In the
past the sizes of the power systems involved were such that the period of these oscilla-
tions was not much greater than one second. Furthermore, the equipment used for
excitation controls was relatively slow and simple. Thus the classical model was
adequate
Today large system interconnéctions with the greater system inertias and relatively
weaker ties result in longer periods of oscillations during transients. Generator control
systems, particularly modern excitation systems, are extremely fast It is therefore46 Chapter 2
questionable whether the effect of the control equipment can be neglected during these
longer periods. Indeed there have been recorded transients caused by large impacts,
resulting in loss of synchronism after the system machines had undergone several oscil-
lations, Another aspect is the dynamic instability problem, where growing oscillations
have occurred on tie lines connecting different power pools or systems As this situation
has developed, it has also become increasingly important to ensure the security of the
bulk power supply. This has made many engineers realize it is time to reexamine the
assumptions made in stability studies This view is well stated by Ray and Ship-
ley (14):
‘We have reached « time when it is appropriate that we appraise the state of the Art of Dynamic
Stability Analysis. In conjunction with this we must:
1. Expand our knowledge of the characteristic time response of our system loads to changes in
voltage and frequency—develop new dynamic models of system loads
2. Re-examine old concepts and develop new ideas on changes in system networks to improve
system stability
3. Update our knowledge of the response characteristics of the various components of energy
systems and their controls (boilers, reactors, turbine governors, generator regulators, field
excitation, ete.)
4, Reformulate our analytical techniques to adequately simulate the time variation of all of the
foregoing factors in system response and accurately determine dynamic system response.
Let us now make a critical appraisal of some of the assumptions made in the classi-
cal model:
L. Transient stability is deciced in the first swing A latge system having many machines
will have numerous natural frequencies of oscillations The capacities of most of the
tie lines are comparatively small, with the result that some of these frequencies are
quite low (frequencies of periods in the order of 5-6 s are not uncommon) It is
quite possible that the worst swing may occur at an instant in time when the peaks of
some of these nodes coincide It is therefore necessary in many cases to study the
transient for a period longer than one second
2. Constant generator main field-winding flux linkage This assumption is suspect on two.
counts, the longer period that must now be considered and the speed of many
modern voltage regulators The longer period, which may be comparable to the
field-winding time constant, means that the change in the main field-winding flux
may be appreciable and should be accounted for so that a correct representation of
the system voltage is realized, Furthermore, the voltage regulator tesponse could
have a significant effect on the field-winding flux. We conclude from this discussion
that the constant voltage behind transient reactance could be very inaccurate
3. Neglecting the damping powers A large system will have relatively weak ties In
the spring-mass analogy used above, this is a rather poorly damped system, It is
important to account for the various components of the system damping to obtain a
correct model that will accurately predict its dynamic performance, especially in loss
of generation studies (8}
4 Constant mechanical power If periods on the order of a few seconds or greater are
of interest, it is unrealistic to assume that the mechanical power will not change
The turbine-governor characteristics, and perhaps boiler characteristics should be in-
cluded in the analysis
5. Representing loads by constant passive impedance. Let us illustrate in a qualitative
manner the effect of such representation, Consider a bus having a voltage V to
which a load P; + jQ, is connected. Let the load be represented by the static ad-The Elementary Mathematical Model 47
v
6 &
Fig. 223 A load represented by passive admittance
mittances G, = P,/¥? and B, = Q,/V? as shown in Figure 2.23. During a tran-
sient the voltage magnitude V and the frequency will change. In the model used in
Figure 2.17 the change in voltage is reflected in the power and reactive power of the
load, while the change in the bus frequency is not reflected at all in the load power
In other words, this model assumes P, « V2, 0, V2, and that both are frequency
independent. This assumption is often on the pessimistic side (There are situa-
tions, however, where this assumption can lead to optimistic results. This discussion
is intended to illustrate the errors implied.) To illustrate this, let us assume that the
transient has been initiated by a fault in the transmission network. Initially, a
fault causes a reduction of the output power of most of the synchronous generators,
Some excess generation results, causing the machines to accelerate, and the area fre-
quency tends to increase At the same time, a transmission network fault usually
causes a reduction of the bus voltages near the fault location In the passive im-
pedance model the load power decreases considerably (since P, « V2), and the in-
crease in frequency does not cause an increase in load power. In real systems the
decrease in power is not likely to be proportional to V? but rather less than this
An increase in system frequency will result in an increase in the load power Thus
the model used gives a load power lower than expected during the fault and higher
than normal after fault removal
From the foregoing discussion we conclude that the classical model is inadequate
for system representation beyond the first swing Since the first swing is largely an
inertial response to a given accelerating torque, the classical model does provide useful
information as to system response during this brief period.
2.12 Block Diagram of One Machine
Block diagrams are useful for helping the control engineer visualize a problem. We
will be considering the control system for synchronous generators and will do so by
analyzing each control function in turn It may be helpful to present 2 general block
diagram of the entire system without worrying about mathematical details as to what
makes up the various blocks. Then as we proceed to analyze each system, we can fill
in the blocks with the appropriate equations or transfer functions. Such a block dia-
gram is shown in Figure 2.24 [15]

1 = P,- P.= P, pu (2.66)
where § has been replaced by o and J has been replaced by a time constant 1,, the
numerical value of which depends on the rotating inertia and the system of units
Three separate control systems are associated with the generator of Figure 2.24
The first is the excitation system that controls the terminal voltage Note that the
excitation system also plays an important role in the machine’s mechanical oscillations,
since it affects the electrical power, P,. The second control system is the speed control
or governor that monitors the shaft speed and controls the mechanical power P,,48 Chopter 2

Finally, in an interconnected system there is a master controller for each system, This
sends a unit dispatch signal (UDS) to each generator and adjusts this signal to meet the
load demand or the scheduled tie-line power It is designed to be quite slow so that it
is usually not involved in a consideration of mechanical dynamics of the shaft. Thus in
most of our work we can consider the speed reference or governor speed changer
(GSC) position to be @ constant. In an isolated system the speed reference is the desited
system speed and is set mechanically in the governor mechanism, as will be shown later
In addition to the three control systems, three transfer functions are of vital im-
portance The first of these is the generator transfer function, The generator equations
are nonlinear and the transfer function is a linearized approximation of the behavior of
the generator terminal voltage V; near a quiescent operating point or equilibrium state
The load equations are also nonlinear and refiect changes in the electrical output quanti-
ties due to changes in terminal voltage V, Finally, the energy source equations are a
desctiption of the boiler and steam turbine or of the penstock and hydraulic turbine
behavior as the governor output calls for changes in the energy input These equations
are very nonlinear and have several long time constants
To visualize the stability problem in terms of Figure 2.24, we recognize immediately
that the shaft speed « must be accurately controlled since this machine must operate at
precisely the same frequency as all others in the system Ii a sudden change in w occurs,
we have two ways of providing controlled responses to this change. One is through the
governor that controls the mechanical power P,, but does so through some rather long
time constants. A second controlled response acts through the excitation system to con-
trol the electrical power P, Time delays are involved here too, but they are smaller
than those in the governor loop. Hence much effort has been- devoted to refinements in
excitation control

System Response to Small Disturbances
3.1. Introduction
is chapter reviews the behavior of an electric power system when subjected to
small disturbances. It is assumed the system under study has been perturbed from
a steady-state condition that prevailed prior to the application of the disturbance.
This small disturbance may be temporary or permanent. If the system is stable, we
would expect that for a temporary disturbance the system would return to its initial
state, while a permanent disturbance would cause the system to acquire a new operating
slate after a transient period. In either case synchronism should not be lost. Under
normal operating conditions a power system is subjected to small disturbances at ran-
dom. Itis important that synchronism not be lost under these conditions Thus system.
behavior is a measure of dynamic stability as the system adjusts to small perturbations
We now define what is meant by a small disturbance. The criterion is simply that
the perturbed system can be linearized about a quiescent operating state An example
of this linearization procedure was given in Section 2.5, While the power-angle rela-
tionship for a synchronous machine connected to an infinite bus obeys a sine law (2.33),
it was shown that for small perturbations the change in power is approximately propor
tional to the change in angle (2 35). Typical examples of small disturbances are a small
change in the scheduled generation of one machine, which results in a small change in
its rotor angle 6, or a small load added to the network (say 1/100 of system capacity
cor less)
In general, the response of a power system to impacts is oscillatory. If the oscil-
lations are damped, so that after sufficient time has elapsed the deviation or the change
in the state of the system due to the small impact is small (or less than some prescribed
finite amount), the system is stable. If on the other hand the oscillations grow in magni-
tude or are sustained indefinitely, the system is unstable
For a linear system, modern linear systems theory provides a means of evaluation
of its dynamic response once a good mathematical model is developed. The mathe-
matical models for the various components of a power network will be developed in
greater detail in later chapters Here a brief account is given of the various phenomena
experienced in a power system subjected to small impacts, with emphasis on the qualita-
tive description of the system behavior
5354 Chapter 3
3.2. Types of Problems Studied
The method of small changes, sometimes called the perturbation method [1,2, 3],
is very useful in studying two types of problems: system response to small impacts and
the distribution of impacts
3.2.1 System response to small impacts
If the power system is perturbed, it will acquire a new operating state. If the
perturbation is small, the new operating state will not be appreciably different from the
initial one. In other words, the state variables or the system parameters will usually
not change appreciably Thus the operation is in the neighborhood of a certain
quiescent state xo. In this limited range of operation 2 nonlinear system can be de-
scribed mathematically by linearized equations This is advantageous, since linear sys-
tems are more convenient to work with. This procedure is particularly useful if the
system contains control elements
The method of analysis used to linearize the differential equations describing the
system behavior is to assume small changes in system quantities such as 64, Us.
P, (change in angle, voitage, and power respectively). Equations for these variables
are found by making a Taylor series expansion about xo and neglecting higher order
terms [4,56] The behavior or the motion of these changes is then examined. In ex-
amining the dynamie performance of the system, it is important to ascertain not only
that growing oscillations do not result during normal operations but also that the oscil-
latory response to small impacts is well damped.
If the stability of the system is being investigated, it is often convenient to assume
that the disturbances causing the changes disappear The motion of the system is then
free Stability is then assured if the system returns to its original state Such behavior
can be determined in a linear system by examining the characteristic equation of the
system. If the mathematical description of the system is in state-space form, ic., if
the system is described by a set of first-order differential equations,
ke Ax + Bu Gh
the free response of the system can be determined {rom the eigenvalues of the A matrix
3.2.2. Distribution of power impacts
When a power impact occurs at some bus in the network, an unbalance between
the power input to the system and the power output takes place, resulting in a transient.
When this transient subsides and a steady-state condition is reached, the power impact,
is “shared” by the various synchronous machines according to their steady-state char-
acteristics, which are determined by the steady-state droop characteristics of the various
governors [5,7] During the transient period, however, the power impact is shared by
the machines according to different criteria, If these criteria differ appreciably among
groups of machines, each impact is followed by oscillatory power swings among groups
of machines to reflect the transition from the initial sharing of the impact to the final
adjustment reached at steady state
Under normal operating conditions « power system is subjected to numerous ran-
dom power impacts from sudden application or removal of loads As explained above,
each impact will be followed by power swings among groups of machines that respond
to the impact differently at different times. These power swings appear as power oscil-System Response to Small Disturbances 55
lations on the tie lines connecting these groups of machines This gives rise to the term
“tie-tine osciltations.”
In large interconnected power systems tie-line oscillations can become objectionable
if their magnitude reaches a significant fraction of the tie-line loading, since they are
superimposed upon the normal flow of power in the line. Furthermore, conditions may
exist in which these oscillations grow in amplitude, causing instability, This problem
is similar to that discussed in Section 3.21. It can be analyzed if an adequate math-
ematical model of the various components of the system is developed and the’ dynamic
response of this model is examined If we are interested in seeking an approximate
answer for the magnitude of the tie-line oscillations, however, such an answer can be
reached by a qualitative discussion of the distribution of power impacts. Such a discus-
sion is offered here
3.3. The Unregulated Synchronous Machine.
We start with the simplest model possible, ic. the constant-voltage-behind-tran-
sient-reactance model. The equation of motion of a synchronous machine connected
to an infinite bus and the electrical power output are given by (2 18) and (2.41) re-

The system described by (3.4) is marginally stable (ie, oscillatory) for P, > 0.
Its response is oscillatory with the frequency of oscillation obtained from the roots of
the characteristic equation (2H /wg)s? + P, = 0, which has the roots

If the electrical torque is assumed to have a component proportional to the speed
change, a damping term is added to (3 4) and the new characteristic equation becomes

where D is the damping power coefficient in pu

Usually (Dwr)? < 8HP,/on, and the roots are complex; ie, the response is oscilla-
tory with an angular frequency of oscillation essentially the same as that given by
(3.6) The system described by (3.7) is stable for P, > 0 and for D > 0 Lf either
one of these quantities is negative, the system is unstable
Venikov [4] reports that a situation may occur where the machine described by
(3.4) can be unstable under light load conditions if the network is such that # < 7.
This would be the case where there is appreciable series resistance (see [4], Sec. 3.2)
From Chapter 2 we know that the synchronizing power coefficient P, is negative
if the spontancous change in the angle 6 is negative A negative value of P, leads to
unstable operation
3.3.1 Demagneti
The model of constant main field-winding flux linkage neglects some important
effects, among them the demagnetizing influence of a change in the rotor angle 6. To
account for this effect, another model of the synchronous machine is used It is not
our concern in this introductory discussion to develop the model or even discuss it in
detail, as this will be accomplished in Chapter 6. Rather, we will state the assump-
tions made in such a model and give some of the pertinent results applicable to
this discussion These results ate found in de Mello and Concordia [8] and are based
on a model previously used by Heffron and Phillips [9]. To account for the field con-
ditions, equations for the direct and quadrature axis quantities are derived (see Chap-
ter 4) Major simplifications are then made by neglecting saturation, stator resistance,
and the damper windings The transformer voltage terms in the stator voltage equa-
tions are considered negligible compared to the speed voltage terms. Linearized rela-
tions are then obtained between small changes in the electrical power P.., the rotor
angle 4, the field-winding voltage v,,, and the voltage proportional to the main
field-winding flux £5

Note that all the constants (3 11) are usually positive Thus from Routh's criterion (10]
this system is stable if K, - K,K,K, > Oand K,KjK, > 0.
The first of the-above criteria states that the synchronizing power coefficient K,
must be greater than the demagnetizing component of clectsical power. The second
criterion is satisfied if the constamts K;, Ky, and K, ate positive Venikov [4] points
out that if the transmission network has an appreciable series capacitive reactance, it is
possible that instability may occur This would happen because the impedance factor
producing the constant K, would become negative.
3.3.2. Effect of small changes of speed
In the linearized version of (3 2) we are interested in terms involving changes of
power due to changes of the angle and its derivative. The change in power due to58 Chapter 3
44 was discussed above and was found to include synchronizing power component
and a demagnetizing component due the change in £4 with 6, The change in speed,

to the coefficient discussed in Section 2.5.2 for one machine connected to an infinite bus
We also note that since (3.21) applies to any number of nodes where the voltages
are known, the linearized equations (3.22) and (3.23) can be derived for a given machine
in terms of the voltages at those nodes and their angles Thus the concept of the syn-
chronizing power coefficients can be extended to mean “the change in the electrical
power of a given machine due to the change in the angle between its internal EMF and60 Chapter 3

voltage at the remote bus is also held constant) This expanded definition of the syn-
chronizing power coefficient will be used in Section 3.6.

Consider the three-machine, nine-bus system of Example 2.6, operating initially in
the steady state with system conditions given by Figure 2.18 (load flow) and the com-
puted initial values given in Example 26 for E,/%g,i = 1,2, 3. A small 10-MW load
(about 3% of the total system load of 315 MW) is suddenly added at bus 8 by adding a
three-phase fault to the bus through 10.0 pu impedance ‘The system base is 100 MV.
Assume that the system load after 1 = 0 is constant and consists of the original load
plus the 10 pu shunt resistance at bus 8
Compute the frequencies of oscillation that will result from this small disturbance
Then compare these computed frequencies against those actually observed in a digital
computer solution Assume there are no governors active on any of the three turbines

First we compute the frequencies of oscillation From (3 24)

Note that the 4/9 are the values of the relative rotor angles at ¢ = 0. Since these
are rotor angles, they will not change at the time of impact, so these are also the correct,
values for r = 0*, Thisis also true of angles at load buses to which appreciable inertia
is connected For loads that are essentially constant impedance, however, the voltage
angle will exhibit a step change.
Also from Example 26 we know H, = 23 64, 6.40, and 301 for = 1, 2, 3 respec-
tively, Thus we can compute the values of a, from Example 31 as follows:

Thus two frequencies, about 1.1 Hz and 2.1 Hz, should be observed in the inter-
machine oscillations of the system. This can be approximately verified by an actual so-
lution of the system by digital computer. The results of such a solution are shown in
Figure 3 3, where absolute angles are given in Figure 3 3(a) and angle differences rela-
tive to 8, are given in Figure 3.3(b). As might be expected, neither of the computed
frequencies is clearly observed since the response is a combination of the two frequen-
cies A rough measurement of the peak-to-peak periods in Figure 3.3(b) gives periods in
the neighborhood of 0.7 s.
Methods have been devised (3, 11] by which a system such as the one in Example 3.2
can be transformed to a new frame of reference called the Jordan canonical form In
Jordan form the different frequencies of oscillation are clearly separated. In the form of
equations normally used, the variables 6, and 8,, (or other angle differences) contain

we have difficulty observing these frequencies in measured physical variables.

may be applied to systems of any size. For very large systems this may not be practical,
however, since the cigenvector computation may be too costly
Finally, we note that the simple model used here assumes that no damping exists,
In physical systems damping is usually present; therefore, the oscillatory response given
above is usually damped, The magnitude of the damping, however, is such that the fre~
quencies of oscillation given by the above equations are not appreciably affected
3.5 Regulated Synchronous Machine
In this section we examine the effect of voltage and speed control equipment on the
dynamic performance of the synchtonous machine. Again we are interested in the free
response of the system, We will consider two simple cases of regulation: a simple
voltage regulator with one time lag and a simple governor with one time lag
3.5.1 Voltage regulator with one time lag
Referring to Figure 2 24, we note that a change in the field voltage Us, is pro-
duced by changes in either Vase or ¥;, If we assume that Vareg = Oand the transducer
has no time lags, v-, depends only upon V,, modified by the transfer function of the
excitation system Analysis of such a system is discussed in Chapter 7. To simplify the
analysis, a rather simple model of the voltage regulator and excitation system is as-
sumed This gives the following s domain relation between the change in the exciter
voltage Ug, and the change in the synchronous machine terminal voltage Vj:
Ure = — EK + 29 Ma 3.36)
where K, = regulator gain
7, = segulator time constant
To examine the effect of the voltage regulator on the system response, we return to
the model discussed in Section 3.3 for a machine connected to an infinite bus through a
transmission network. These relations are given in (3.9) and (3 10)
To use (3 36), a relation between V, 6,,and Ej is needed Such a relation is de-
veloped in reference (8) and is in the form
Vig = Ks5y + Keka (337)
where Ky = Via/Sale, — change in terminal voltage with change in rotor angle for
constant E’
= change in terminal voltage with change in £’ for constant 6
Ke = Val Es

Analysis of this fourth-order system for stability is left as an exercise (see Problem 3.3)68 ‘Chapter 3
3.5.2 Governor with one time lag
Referring to Figure 2 24, we note that a change in the speed w ot in the load or
speed reference (governor speed changer (GSC)] produces a change in the mechanical
torque J; The amount of change in T,, depends upon the speed droop and upon the
transfer functions of the governor and the energy source
For the model under consideration it is assumed that GSC, = 0 and that the com-
bined effect of the turbine and speed governor systems are such that the change in the
mechanical power is in the form

Then the linearized swing equation in the s domain is in the form
(2H /og)s?5a(s) = =[Ky/( + 745)]85a(5) — Peals) G44)
The order of this equation will depend upon the expression used for P..(s)._ If we as-
sume the simplest mode! possible, Pz4(s) = P,6a(3), the elraracteristic equation of the
system is given by

The system is now of third order. Applying Routh’s criterion, the system is stable
if K, > Oand P, > 0
Ifanother model is used for P,.(3), such 28 the model given by (39) and (3 10),
the system becomes of fourth order, as shown in Figure 3.5 Its dynamic response will
change Information on stability can be obtained front the roots of the charactesistic
‘equation or from examining the eigenvalues of its characteristic matrix

If both speed governor and voltage regulation are added simultaneously, as is
usually the case, the system becomes fifth order, as shown in Figure 3.6
3.6. Distribution of Power Impacts
In this section we consider the effect of the sudden application of a small load P;
at some point in the network. (See also [7,5]) To simplify the analysis, we also as-
sume that the load has a negligible reactive component, Since the sudden change in
load P,, creates an unbalance between generation and load, an oscillatory transient
results before the system settles to a new steady-state condition This kind of impact
is continuously occurting during normal operation of power systems The oscillatory
transient is in fact a “spectrum” of oscillations resulting from the random change in
loads. These oscillations are reflected in power flow in the tie lines. Thus the scheduled
tic-line flows will have “random” power oscillations superimposed upon them Our
concern here is to make an estimate of the magnitude of these power oscillations Note
that the estimates made by the methods outlined below are only approximate, yet they
are quite instructive
We formulate the problem mathematically using the network configuration of Fig-
ure 3.7 and the equations of Sections 2.9 and 34 Referring to the (w+ 1)-port net-
work in Figure 37, the power into node i is obtained from (3.21) by adding node k

Here we assume that the power network has a very high X/R ratio such that the
conductances are negligible The machines are represented. by the classical model of
constant voltage behind transient reactance. We also assume that the network has been
reduced to the internal machine nodes (nodes 1,2,.. ., of Figure 2 17) and the node k,
where the impact Pr . is applied
The immediate effect (assuming the network response to be fast) of the application
‘of Pzq is that the angle of bus k is changed while the magnitude of its voltage %;
is unchanged, os V; /dyq becomes V; /dg0 + dgg- Note also that the internal angles of
the machine nodes 6), 5;,...,d, do not change instantly because of the rotor inertia,
3.6.1 Linearization
‘The equations for injected power (347) and (3.48) are nonlinear because of the
transcendental functions. Since we are concerned only with a small impact P;4, we
linearize these equations to find
Poe Pot Piso Pr = Pro + Pea
and determine only the change variables P,, and Pes
The transcendental functions are linearized by the relations

stituting (3 49) into (3.47) and (3 48) and eliminating the initial values, we compute

These equations are valid for any time ¢ following the application of the impactSystem Response to Small Disturbances 7
3.6.2 Aspecial case: # = 0*
The instant immediately following the impact is of interest. In particular, we would
like to determine exactly how much of the impact P,. is supplied by each generator
Pim 12,
At the instant ¢ = * we know that 4, = 0 for all generators because of rotor
inertias Thus we can compute (with both j and j indicating generator subscripts)

Thus (3.50) becomes
Pig(0*) = —Pradsa(O*) — Pra") = z Paes (0") G5)
£
Comparing the above two equations at 1 = 0*, we note that at node k
Pus(0") = ~ D> Pia(0*) (352)
oi
This is to be expected since we are assuming a nearly reactive network, We also note
that at node i Pi, depends upon By cosdy9. In other words, the higher the transfer
susceptance By and the lower the initial angle duo, the greater the share of the im-
pact “picked up” by machine i, Note also that P,y = —Prs, 0 the foregoing equa-
tions can be written in terms of the load impact as.

fH
Itis interesting that at the instant of the load impact (ie, at 1 = 0%, the source of
energy supplied by the generators is the energy stored in their magnetic fields and is
distributed according to the synchronizing power coefficients between i and k. Note
that the generator rotor angles cannot move instantly; hence the energy supplied by the
generators cannot come instantly from the energy stored in the rotating masses. This
is also evident from the first equation of (3.51); Pi depends upon P,x or By, which
depends upon the reactance between generator i and node k Later on when the rotor
angles change, the stored energy in the rotating masses becomes important, as shown
below
Equations (3 52) and (3.55) indicate that the load impact P,4 at a network bus k
is immediately shared by the synchronous generators according to their synchronizing
power coefficients with respect to the bus k Thus the machines electrically close to the
point of impact will pick up the greater share of the load regardless of their size
Let us consider next the deceleration of machine i due to the sudden increase in its
output power P,, The incremental differential equation governing the motion of

Obviously, the shaft decelerates for a positive load Pr,. The pu deceleration of ma-
chine i, given by (357), is dependent on the synchronizing power coefficient P,. and
inertia H,. This deceleration will be constant until the governor action begins Note
that after the initial impact the various synchronous machines will be retarded at differ-
ent rates, each according to its size H, and its “electrical location” given by Pa

3.6.3 Average behavior prior to governor action (t = f:)
We now estimate the system behavior during the period 0 < 1 < t,, where f is
the time at which governor action begins To designate this period simply, we refer
to time as f, although there is no specific instant under consideration but a brief
time period of no more than a few seconds Looking at the system as a whole, there
will be an overall deceleration of the machines during this period To obtain the
mean deceleration, let _us define an “inertial center” that has angle § and angular
velocity @, where by definition,

Hane Pes |e 2H, G60)
Equation (3.60) gives the mean acceleration of all the machines in the system, which is
defined here as the acceleration of a fictitious inertial center.
‘We now investigate the way in which the impact Pr, will be shared by the various
machines Note that while the system as a whole is retarding at the rate given by
(3.60), the individual machines are retarding at different rates. Each machine follows
an oscillatory motion governed by its swing equation. Synchronizing forces tend to
pull them toward the mean system retardation, and after the initial transient decays
they will acquire the same retardation as given by (3.60), In other words, when the
transient decays, do,,/dé will be the same as di, /de as given by (3.60). Substituting
this value of day,/d¢ in (3.56), at f = , > toy
Piatti) = (u/% 1) Pra(0*) G61)
Thus at the end of a brief transient the various machines will share the increase in
load as a function only of their inertia constants. The time 1, is chosen large enoughSystem Response to Small Disturbances 73
so that all the machines will have acquited the mean system retardation, At the same
time ¢, is not so large as to allow other effects such as governor action to take place
Equation (3.61) implies that the H constants for all the machines are given to a common
base. If they are given for each machine on its own base, the correct powers are ob-
tained if H is replaced by HS,;/S,», where Sy; is the machine rating and S,y is the
chosen system base.
Examining (3.56) and (3.61), we note that immediately after the impact Pra(ie., at
1 = 0*) the machines share the impact according to their electrical proximity to the
point of the impact as expressed by the synchronizing power coefficients After a brief
transient period the same machines share the same impact according to entirely differ-
ent criteria, namely, according to their inertias.

‘A nominal 10-MW (0.1 pu) load is added to bus 8 by applying a three-phase fault
through a 10 pu resistance, using a library transient stability program. The resulting
power oscillations Ps, i = 1, 2, 3, are shown in Figure 3.8 for the system operating
without governor action
The prefault conditions at the generators are given in Table 3.1 and in Example 2.6
From the prefault load flow of Figure 2 19 we determine that Vio = 1016 and dj =

Note that the actual load pickup is only 9.1 MW instead of the desired 10 MW,
This is due in part to the assumption of constant voltage Yj at bus 8 (actually, the
voltage drops slightly) and to the assumed linearity of the system. If the computed
Pia are scaled down by 0.91, the results agree quite well with values measured from the
computer study. These values are also shown on the plot of Figure 3.8 at time ¢ = 0*

little damping and the oscillations are likely to persist for some time This is partly due
to the inherent nature of this particular system, but the same phenomenon would be
present to some extent on any system
The second plot of interest is the speed deviation or slip as a function of time,
shown in Figure 39. The computer program provides speed deviation data in Hz and
these units are used in Figure 39. Note the steady deceleration with all units oscillating
about the mean or inertial center This is computed as

The individual machine speed deviations w,, are plotted in Figure 3.9 and show graphi-
cally the intermachine oscillations that occur as the system slowly retards in frequency
The mean deceleration of about 0.09 Hz/s is plotted in Figure 3 9 as a straight line
If the governors were active, the speed deviation would level off after a few seconds
to a constant value and the oscillations would eventually decay Since the governors
have a drooping characteristic, the speed would then continue at the reduced value as7 Chopter 3
long as the additional load was present. If the. speed deviation is great, signifying
a substantial load increase on the generators, the governors would need to be readjusted
to the new load level so that additional prime-mover torque could be provided
Example 3.5
Let us examine the effect of the above on the power flow in tie lines Consider a
power network composed of two areas connected with @ tic line, as shown in Fig-
ure 3.10 The wo areas are of comparable size, say 1000 MW each. They ate con-
nected with a tie line having capacity of 100 MW. The tie line is carrying a steady
power flow of 80 MW from area I to area 2 as shown in Figure 3.10. Now let a load
impact P,, = 10 MW (1% of the capacity of one area) take place at some point in
area I, and determine the distribution of this added load immediately after its applica-
tion (1 = 0*) and a short time later (1 = 1) after the initial transients have subsided.
Because of the proximity of the groups of machines in area I to the point of impact,
their synchronizing power coefficients are larger than those of the groups of machines
in area 2 If we define 3) Paclaess = Pry EPaelarcaz = Pay then let us assume that P,, =
2Pa
Pn 1oMw.
Fig 310 Two areas connected with a tie line
Solution
Since P,, = 2P;2, at the instant of the impact 2/3 of the 10-MW load will be sup-
plied by the groups of machines in area 1, while 1/3 or 33 MW will be supplied by
the groups of machines in area 2, Thus 33 MW will appear as a reduction in te-line
flow In other words, at that instant the tie-line flow becomes 76.7 MW toward area 2
At the end of the initial transient the load power impact P:. will be shared by the
machines according to their inertias, Let us assume that the machines of area | are
Tie Line Poor Bae MW

predominantly hydro units (with relatively small H), while the units of area 2 are of
larger inertia constants such that Milena: = 2£Hileras Where all H's are on a com-
mon base. Ihe sharing of the load among the groups of machines will now become
6.7 MW contributed from area 2 and 33 MW from area 1. The tie-line flow will now
become 73 3 MW (toward area 2)
From the above we can see that in the situation discussed in this example a sudden
application of 2 10-MW load caused the tie-line flow to drop almost instantly by
3.3 MW, and after a brief transient by 67 MW The transition from 76.7-MW flow
to 73.3-MW flow is oscillatory, and power swings of as much as twice the diflerence
between these two values may be encountered. This situation is illustrated in Fig-
ure 3.11
The time 1, mentioned above is smaller than the time needed by the various con-
trollers to adjust the system generation to match the load and the tie-line flow to meet
the scheduled flow

We now consider a slightly more complex and mote realistic case wherein the area
equivalents in Figure 3.10 arc represented by their Thevenin equivatents and the tic-

In this example the synchronizing power coefficients P,., and P, are nearly equal,
while the inertias of the two areas are not. Thus while the fitial distributions of theSystem Response to Small Disturbances 79
load P,, are about the same, the distributions at a later time ¢ = f, are such that
area | picks up about 59% of the load and area 2 picks up the remaining 41%,
In general, the initial distribution of a load impact depends on the point of impact.
Problem 3.10 gives another example where the point of impact is in area | (bus 3)
In the above discussion many factors have been neglected, eg, the effect of the
network transfer conductances, the effect of the reactive component of the load impact,
the fast primary controllers such as some of the modern exciters, the load frequency and
voltage characteristics, and others Thus the conclusions reached above should be
considered qualitative and as rough approximations Yet these conclusions are basically
sound and give a good “feel” for what happens to the machines atid to the tie-line
fiows under the influence of small routine load changes,
If the system is made up of groups of machines separated by tie lines, they share
the impacts differently under different conditions. Hence they will oscillate with respect
to each other during the transient period following the impact The power flow in the
connecting ties will reflect these oscillations
The analysis given above could be extended to include governor actions Following
an impact the synchronous machines will share the change first according to their
synchronizing power coefficients, then after @ brief period according to their inertias
The speed change will be sensed by the prime-mover governors, which will act to make
the load sharing according to an entirely different criterion, namely, the speed governor
droop characteristic The transition from the second to the finat stage is oscillatory
(see Rudenberg (7|, Ch 23) The angular frequency of these oscillations can be esti-
mated as follows From Section 35.2, neglecting P,,, the change in the mechanical
power P,,4 is of the form
=U/R ws
Ps = Ty oa ae (3.62)
where R is the regulation and 7, is the servomotor time constant. The swing equation

The characteristic equation of the system is given by
SU /rads + 1/2HRita = 0 (3.63)
from which the natural frequeney of oscillation can be estimated
Itis interesting to note the order of magnitude of the frequentcy of oscillation in the
two different transients discussed in this section, For a given machine (or a group of
machines) the frequency of oscillation in the first transient is the natural frequency with
respect to the point of impact These frequencies are determined by finding the eigen-
values of the A matrix by solving det (A - XU) = 0, where U is the unit matrix
and A is defined by (3.1)
For the second transient, which occurs during the transition from sharing according
to inertia to sharing according to governor characteristic, the {requeney of oscillation
is given by vi = [/2H,Rir.. Usually these two frequencies are appreciably different.80

4.1 Introduction
In this chapter we develop a mathematical model for a synchronous machine for
use in stability computations. State-space formulation of the machine equations is used.
Two models are developed, one using the currents as state variables and another using
the flux linkages. Simplified models, which are often used for stability studies, are dis-
cussed This chapter is not intended to provide an exhaustive treatment of synchronous
machine theory, The interested readet should consult one of the many excellent refer-
ences on this subject (sce (1}-19))
The synchronous machine under consideration is assumed to have three stator
windings, one field winding, and two amortisseur or damper windings These six wind-
ings are magnetically coupled The magnetic coupling between the windings is a function
of the rotor position. Thus the flux linking each winding is also a function of the rotor
position The instantaneous terminal voltage v of any winding is in the form,
v=4bnedk (4.1)
where is the flux linkage, ris the winding resistance, and / is the current, with posi-
tive directions of stator currents flowing out of the generator terminals The notation
42 indicates the stimmation of all appropriate terms with due regard to signs The
expressions for the winding voltages are complicated because of the variation of \ with
the rotor position
4.2 Park's Transformation
A great simplification in the mathematical description of the synchronous machine
is obtained if a certain transformation of variables is performed The transformation
used is usually called Park's transformation [10,11]. It defines a new set of stator
variables such as currents, voltages, or flux linkages in terms of the actual winding vari-
ables. The new quantities are obtained from the projection of the actual variables on
three axes: one along the direct axis of the rotor field winding, called the direct axis;
a second along the neutral axis of the field winding, called the quadrature axis; and the
third on a stationary axis. Park's transformation is developed mathematically as fol-
jows '
1. The transformation developed and used in this book is not exactly that used by Pack [10,11] but is
sore nearly that suggested by Lewis [12] with certain other features suggested by Concordia (discussion 0

Fig. 4 1 Pictorial representation of a synchronous machine,
We define the d axis of the rotor at some instant of time to be at angle @ rad with
respect to a fixed reference position, as shown in Figure 4.1. Let the stator phase cur-
rents /,, ig, and /, be the currents leaving the generator terminals. If we “project” these
currents along the d and g axes of the rotor, we get the relations
ia = (2/3){f.8in@ + i,sin(6 — 2/3) + i,sin(@ + 2"/3))
(2/3){é, cos8 + i,cos(@ — 2x/3) + icos(@ + 2x/3)) 42)
We note that for convenience the axis of phase a was chosen to be the reference
Position, otherwise some angle of displacement between phase a and the arbitrary
reference will appear in all the above terms
The effect of Park’s transformation is simply to tansform all stator quantities from
phases a, b, and ¢ into new variables the frame of reference of which moves with the
rotor We should remember, however, that if we have three variables i,, /,, and
i, we need three new variables Park's transformation uses two of the new variables
as the d and q axis components The third variable is a stationary current, which is
proportional to the zero-sequence current A multiplier is used to simplify the numeri-
cal calculations Thus by definition

The main field-winding fiux is along the direction of the d axis of the rotor _It produces
an EMF that lags this flux by 90°. Therefore the machine EMF £ is primarily along the

machine torque angle é if the phasor V is in the direction of the reference phase

Att = 0 the phasor V is located at the axis of phase a, ie, at the reference axis
in Figure 41 The q axis is located at an angle 4, and the d axis is located at 6 =

the axis of phase a Thed axis of the rotor is therefore located at

torque angle in electrical radians
Expressions similar to (4,3) may also be written for voltages or flux linkages; ¢ g.,
Year =P Yate ody = PA (47)
If the transformation (4 5) is unique, an inverse transformation also exists wherein we
may write
ave = Po "oag (48)
The inverse of (45) may be computed to be

Po! = VIP3II/V2_cos( — 2x/3) sin (@ - 24/3) 49)
I/V2_ cos(@ + 2/3) sin(# + 2x/3)
and we note that P-! = P’, which means that the transformation P is orthogonal
Having P orthogonal also means that the transformation P is power invariant, and we
should expect to use the same power expression in either the a-b-c or the O-d-g frame

43° Flux Linkage Equations
The situation depicted in Figure 4 1 is that of a network consisting of six mutually
coupled coils These are the three phase windings sa-fa, sb-fo, and sc-fe; the field
winding F-F'; and the two damper windings D-D' and Q-Q' (The damper windings
arc often designated by the symbols kd and kg. We prefer the shortet notation used
here. Phase-winding designations s and / refer to “start” and “finish” of these coils }
We write the flux linkage equation for these six circuits as

where Lx =
elf-inductance when j = k
= mutual inductance when j = k
and where L;, = L,;in all cases Note the subscript convention in (4.11) where lower-
case subscripts are used for stator quantities and uppercase subscripts are used for rotor
quantities Prentice [14] shows that most of the inductances in (4.11) are functions of
the rotor position angle @. These inductances may be written as follows
4.3.1 Stator self-inductances
The phase-winding self-inductances are given by
Log = Ly + £,.00820 H
Ly = Ly + L,c0s2(8 - 27/3) H
La = Ly + Lp cos2(0 + 2/3) H (412)
where L, > L,, and both L, and L,, are constants, (All inductance quantities such as
1, or M, with single subscripts are constants in our notation.)
43.2 Rotor self-inductances
Since saturation and slot effect are neglected, all rotor self-inductances are constants
and, according to our subscript convention, we may use a single subscript notation; i¢.,
Lie Lp Ho Lop = Lp H Log = Le H (413)
4.3.3. Stator mutual inductances
The phase-to-phase mutual inductances are functions of @ but are symmetric,
Lay = Lig = ~M, - L,cos2(0 + 2/6) H
Lie = La = -M, — L,cos 20 - 2/2) H
= La = ~M, ~ L,,cos2(0 + Sx/6) H (414)
where | M,| > Lq. Note that signs of mutual inductance terms depend upon assumed
current directions and coil orientations
4.3.4 Rotor mutual inductances
The mutual inductance between windings F and D is constant and does not vary
with & The coefficient of coupling between the d and g axes is zero, and all pairs of
windings with 90° displacement have zero mutual inductance. Thus
Lip = Lop = Mp Ho Lig= Lop = 0H Log = Loo = 0H (415)
43.5 Stator-to-rotor mutual inductances
Finally, we consider the mutual inductances between stator and rotor windings, all
‘of which are functions of the rotor angle 8, From the phase windings to the field wind-
ing we write
Lat = Lee = Mycosd H
Lu = La = M,cos(@ 2/3) H
Lip = Lp = Mycos(6 + 2x/3) H (4.16)
Similarly, from phase windings to damper winding D we haveThe Synchronous Machine 87
Lap = Lng = Mycosé H
Lip = Lop = Mpcos(# — 2x/3) H
Lip = Lp. = Mpcos(@ + 2x/3) H (417)
and finally, from phase windings to damper winding Q we have
Lig = Lon = Mosind H
Leo = Mgsin(@ - 2x/3) H
Lo = Mosin(@ + 2x/3) H (4.18)
The signs on mutual terms depend upon assumed current directions and coil orienta-
tion
4.3.6 Transformation of inductances:
Knowing all inductances in the inductance matrix (4.11), we observe that nearly
all terms in the matrix are time varying, since @ is a function of time Only four of
the off-diagonal terms vanish, as noted in equation (4.15) Thus in voltage equations
such as (4.1) the \ term is nota simple Li but must be computed as \ = Li + Li,
We now observe that (4.11) with its time-varying inductances can be simplified by
referring all quantities to a rotor frame of reference through a Park’s transformation
(45) applied to the a-b-c partition. We compute

In (4.20) dy is the flux linkage in a cireuit moving with the rotor and centered on the
daxis Similarly, ), is centered on the g axis, Flux linkage Ap is completely uncoupled
from the other circuits, as the first row and column have only a diagonal term
tis important also to observe that the inductance matrix of (4 20) is a matrix of
constants This is apparent since all quantities have only one subscript, thus conforming
with our notation for constant inductances. The power of Park's transformation is that
it removes the time-varying coefficients from this equation. This is very important
We also note that the transformed matrix (4.20) is symmetric and therefore is physically
realizable by an equivalent circuit This was not true of the transformation used by
Park [10, 11], where he let Voie = Qvate With Q defined as
1/2 12 1/2
Q = 2/3 | cos@ —cos(# — 2x/3) cos (0 + 2x/3) (4.22)
=sin® ~sin(@ — 2x/3) ~sin(@ + 2/3),
Other transformations are found in the literature. The transformation (4.22) is not a
power-invariant transformation and does not result in a reciprocal (symmetric) in-
ductance matrix. This leads to unnecessary complication when the equations are nor
malized ,
4.4 Voltage Equations
The generator voltage equations are in the form of (41) Schematically, the ci
cuits are shown in Figure 4.2, where coils are identified exactly the same as in Fig-
ure 4.1 and with coil terminations shown as well Mutual inductances are omitted
from the schematic for clarity but are assumed present with the values given in Sec-
tion 4 3 Note that the stator currents are assumed to have a positive direction flowing
out of the machine terminals, since the machine is a generator For the conditions in-
dicated we may write the matrix equation

4,5. Formulation of State-Space Equations
Recall that our objective is to derive a set of equations describing the synchronous
machine in the form
& = f(x,u,) (437)
where x = a vector of the state variables
u = the system driving functions
a set of nonlinear functions
If the equations describing the synchronous machine are linear, the set (4.37) is
of the well-known form
X= Ax + Bu (438)
Examining (4 35), we can see that it represents a set of first-order differential equa-
tions. We may now put this set in the form of (4.37) or (4 38), ie, in state-space form.
Note, however, that (4 35) contains flux linkages and currents as variables Since these
two sets of variables are mutually dependent, we can eliminate one set to express
(4.35) in terms of one set of variables only Actually, numerous possibilities for the
choice of the state variables are available, We will mention only two that are common:
(1) a set based on the currents as state variables; ie, x' = [igig/rin ig), which has the
advantage of offering simple relations between the voltages v, and v, and the state
variables (through the power network connected to the machine terminals) and (2) a
set based on flux linkages as the state variables, where the particular set to be chosen
depends upon how conveniently they can be expressed in terms of the machine currents
and stator voltages. Here we will use the formulation x! = [As\gAr Ao Aol
4.6 Current Formulation
Starting with (4.35), we can replace the terms in A and } by terms in é and jas fol-
lows The d term has been simplified so that we can compute its value from (4 20),
which we rearrange in partitioned form. Let

where Li, is the transpose of L,, But the inductance matrix here is a constant ma-
trix, so we may write A = Li V, and the \ term behaves exactly like that of a passive
inductance, Substituting this result into (4.35), éxpanding to full 6 x 6 notation, and
rearranging,2 Chapter 4
°
L, kMg
kMy Lo
(439)
where k = V/37Zas before A great deal of information is contained in (4.39)
First, we note that the zero-sequence voltage is dependent only upon ig and iy. This
equation can be solved separately from the others once the initial conditions on ip
are given. The remaining five equations are all coupled in a most interesting way.
They are similar to those of a passive network except for the presence of the speed
voltage terms These terms, consisting of wd of wLi products, appear unsymmetrically
and distinguish this equation from that of a passive network Note that the speed
voltage terms in the d axis equation are due only to g axis currents, viz ,i, and ig Simi-
larly, the g axis speed voltages are due to d axis currents, ig, i, and ip Also observe
that all the terms in the coefficient matrices are constants except w, the angular velocity
This is a considerable improvement over the description given in (4.23) in the a-b-c
frame of reference since nearly all inductances in that equation were time varying The
price we have paid to get rid of the time-varying coefficients is the introduction of speed
voltage terms in the resistance matrix. Since w is a variable, this causes (4 39) to be
nonlinear If the speed is assumed constant, which is usually a good approximation,
then (4.39) is linear In any event, the nonlinearity is never great, as w is usually
nearly constant
4.7 Per Unit Conversion
The voltage equations of the preceding section are not in a convenient form for en-
gineering use. One difficulty is the numerically awkward values with stator voltages in
the kilovolt range and field voltage at a much lower level. This problem can be solved
by normalizing the equations to a convenient base value and expressing all voltages in
pu (or percent) of base (See Appendix C )
An examination of the voltage equations reveals the dimensional character shown
in Table 4 1, where all dimensions are expressed in terms of a v-i-t (voltage, current,
time) system, {These dimensions are convenient here. Other possible systems areThe Synchronous Machine 93
FL1Q (force, length, time, charge) and MZry (mass, length, time, permeability) | Ob-
serve that all quantities appearing in (4 39) involve only three dimensions. Thus if we
choose three base quantities that involve all three dimensions, all bases are fixed for all
quantities For example, if we choose the base voltage, base current, and base time, by
combining these quantities according to column 4 of Table 4 1, we may compute base
quantities for all other entries Note that exactly three base quantities must be chosen
and that these three must involve all three dimensions, v, i, and 1

4.7.1 Choosing a base for stator quant
The variables v2, Up, izy igs Avs ANG Ay are stator quantities because they relate di-
rectly to the a-b-c phase quantities through Park’s transformation (Also see Rankin
[15], Lewis [12] and Harris et al [9] for a discussion of this topic.) Using the subscript
B to indicate “base” and R to indicate “rated,” we choose the following stator base
quantities
Let Sp = Sq = stator rated VA/phase, VA rms
Vy = Va = stator rated ine-to-neutral voltage, V rms
sp © we = generator rated speed, elec rad/s (440)
Before proceeding further, let us examine the effect of this choice on the d and q axis
quantities
Fitst note that the three-phase power in pu is three times the pu power per phase
(for balanced conditions) To prove this, let the rms phase quantities be V/a V and
If. The three-phase power is 3 V/cos(a — y)W The pu power Pj, is given by
Pig = BVI Vala)cos (a ~ y) = 3¥L.cos(w — ¥) (440)
where the subscript w is used to indicate pu quantities, To obtain the d and q axis
quantities, we first write the instantaneous phase voltage and currents. To simplify the
expression without any loss of generality, we will assume that v,(1) is in the form,
v, = Vy sin(@ +a) = V2Vsin(@ +a) V
vy = V2Vsin(6 + a ~ 2x/3) V
v, = ViVsin (6 + @ + 22/3) V (4.42)

Similarly,

Obviously, then
Uh + Un = VE (4.46)
The above results are significant, They indicate that with this particular choice of the
base voltage, the pu d and g axis voltages are numerically equal to V3 times the pu
phase voltages.
Similarly, we can show that if the rms phase current is I/-y A, the corresponding d

i |= |v3rsiny| A (4.47)
ud) [wa reosy
and the pu currents are given by
in = V3KsiNY — ig = V3I,co8y (448)
To check the validity of the above, the power in the d and q circuits must be the
same as the power in the three stator phases, since P is a power-invariant transfor-
mation
Pry = lade, + lye = 34, V.(Sinasiny + cosecos y)
= 31,V,cos(a — 7) pu (4.49)
We now develop the relations for the various base quantities From (4.40) and
Table 4 1 we compute the following:
Ty = SofVq = Sg/Vq A xms fg = Veg = Vfog 5
As = Vola = Valog = Ly ly Whturn
Ry = Vo/ly = Va/ly 0 Ly = Vate/ly = Va/lnsoy HL (450)
Thus by choosing the three base quantities Sp, Vp, and ig, we can compute base"
values for all quantities of interest.
To normalize any quantity, it is divided by the base quantity of the same dimension
For example, for currents we write
i = i(A)/Ig(A) pu (451)
where we use the subscript u to indicate pu. Later, when there is no danger of ambiguity
in the notation, this subscript is omittedThe Synchronous Machine 95
4.7.2 Choosing a base for rotor quantities
Lewis [12) showed that in circuits coupled electromagnetically, which are to be nor-
malized, it is essential to select the same voltampere and time base in cach part of the
circuit. (See Appendix C for a more detailed treatment of this subject) The choice
of equal time base throughout all parts of a circuit with mutual coupling is the impor-
tant constraint It can be shown that the choice of a common time base fy forces the
VA base to be equal in all circuit parts and also forces the base mutual inductance to be
the geometric mean of the base self-inductances if equal pu mutuals are to result; ie.,
Mug = (Lislos)'”, (See Problem 4 18.)
For the synchronous machine the choice of Sy is based on the rating of the stator,
and the time base is fixed by the rated radian frequency These base quantities must be
the same for the rotor circuits as well. It should be remembered, however, that the
stator VA base is much larger than the VA rating of the rotor (field) circuits. Hence
some rotor base quantities are bound to be very large, making the corresponding pu
rotor quantities appear numerically small, Therefore, care should be exercised in the
choice of the remaining free rotor base term, since all other rotor base quantities will
then be automatically determined. There is a choice of quantities, but the question is,
Which is more convenient?
To illustrate the above, consider a machine having a stator rating of 100 x 10° VA/
phase. Assume that its exciter has a rating of 250 V and 1000 A If, for example, we
choose Tgp = 1000 A, Vg will then be 100,000 V; and if we choose Vea = 250 V, then
Jag will be 400,000 A.
Is one choice more convenient than the other? Are there other more desirable
choices? The answer lies in the nature of the coupling between the rotor and the stator
circuits. It would seem desirable to choose some base quantity in the rotor to give the
correct base quantity in the stator For example, we can choose the base rotor current
to give, through the magnetic coupling, the correct base stator flux linkage or open
circuit voltage. Even then there is some latitude in the choice of the base rotor current,
depending on the condition of the magnetic circuit
The choice made here for the free rotor base quantity is based on the concept of
equal mutual flux linkages This means that base field current ot base d axis amortisscur
current will produce the same space fundamental of air gap flux as produced by base
stator current acting in the fictitious d winding
Referring to the flux linkage equations (4.20) let iy = Ia, ig = Ire, and ip = Ipy
be applied one by one with other currents set to zero If we denote the magnetizing
inductances (= leakage inductances) as
Ing 2Ly- 2a Ho bmg £ Ey ~ 2, H

and equate the mutual flux linkages in each winding,
Yt = Lats = KM lip = KMplyp WO ng = Lng ly = KMgIgp WD
Qne = KMely = Lne len = Mploy Wo np = kKMgly ~ Lyolon Wb
Ano = KMply = Mylex = Lo lop WO (453)
Then we can show that76 Chapter 4
Lnals = Lnelig = Luolbe = kMrlolen = KMolalon = Mylralon
Lngli = KMolelon = Lnolbs (454)
and this is the fundamental constraint among base currents
From (4 54) and the requirement for equal S,, we compute
Vee/Va = Soflew = Lne{Lms)'” = KMe/Lng = LmefkMy = Ma/kMy > ky
Von! Ve = mol Ema)? = KMpfLng = EmofKMp = Mg/kM, © kp
You/Ms Col Lng? = KMfo/Lng = LnolkMg * ky (455)
These basic constraints permit us to compute
Ris = KFRy 2 Ron = kbRa QD — Ron = kRRy D
Lig = KiLy Ho Lop = kbLg H Lop = kelp H (456)
and since the base mutuals must be the geometric mean of the base self-inductances
(see Problem 4.18),
Mig =kelg H Mop =kolp H Mon=kolp H Mg = kekpLy H

4.7.3 Comparison with other per unit systems .
The subject of the pu system used with synchronous machines has been contro-
versial over the years. While the use of pu quantities is common in the literature, it is
not always clear which base quantities are used by the authors Furthermore, synchro-
nous machine data is usually furnished by the manufacturer in pu, Therefore it is
important to understand any major difference in the pu systems adopted Part of
the problem lies in the nature of the original Park's transformation Q given in (4.22)
This transformation is not power invariant; ie., the three-phase power in watts is given
by pac = 15 (igby + i,04) Also, the mutual coupling between the field and the stator
d axis is not reciprocal When the Q transformation is used, the pu system is chosen
carefully to overcome this difficulty. Note that the modified Park’s transformation P
defined by (4.5) was chosen specifically to overcome these problems.
The system most commonly used in the literature is based on the following base
quantities:
= three-phase rated VA
Ve = peak rated voltage to neutral
Ip = peak rated current
and with rotor base quantities chosen to give equal pu mutual inductances This leads
to the relations
Ten = V2 (Lal Melby Vew = 3/V2)(Me/Lma) Vo
This choice of base quantities, which is commonly used, gives the same numerical
values in pu for synchronous machine stator and rotor impedances and self-inductances
as the system used in this book. The pu mutual inductances differ by a factor of 3/2.
Therefore, the terms kM; used in this book are numerically equal to M, in pu as found
in the literature. The major differences lie in the following:
1. Since the power in the d and g stator circuits is the three-phase power, one pu cur-
tent and voltage gives three pu power in the system used here and gives one pu power
in the other systemThe Synchronous Machine 7
2 Im the system used here v3, + v3, = 33, while in the other system v3, + uh, =
V3, where V, is the pu terminal voltage.
The system used here is more appealing to some engineers than that used by the
manufacturers [9, 12]. However, since the manufacturers’ base system is so common,
there is merit in studying both

The instantaneous voltage of phase a is v, = {pep M; sind, where wp is the rated syn-

4.7.4 The correspondence of per unit stator EMF to rotor quantities
‘We have seen that the particular choice of base quantities used here’gives pu values
of dand q axis stator currents and voltages that are «/3 times the tms values. We also
note that the coupling between the d axis rotor and stator involves the factor k = 3/2,
and similarly for the q axis. For example, the contribution to the d axis stator flux link-
age A, due to the field current i, is kMyi, and so on In synchronous machine
equations it is often desirable to convert a rotor current, flux linkage, ot voltage to an
equivalent stator EMF. These expressions are developed in this section .
The basis for converting a field quantity to an equivalent stator EMF is that at open
circuit a field cusrent i; A corresponds to an EMF of igo,M, V peak If the rms
value of this EMF is £, then i,wgM, = W/2E and ipwgkM, = V/3E in MKS units?
2. The choice of symbol for the EMF due to ipis not clearly desided The American National Stan-
dards Institute (ANSI) uses the symbol E, {16]. A new proposed standard uses Ey[17), The International
Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) in 4 discussion of [17], favors E, for this voltage The authors leave
this voltage unsubscripted until a new standard is adoptedThe Synchronous Machine 99
Since M, and wp are known constants for a given machine, the field current corresponds
toa given EMF by a simple scaling factor Thus & is the stator air gap rms voltage in
pu corresponding to the field current i, in pu
We can also convert a field flux linkage A, to a corresponding stator EMF. At
steady-state open circuit conditions Ay = Lyi;, and this value of field current i,, when
multiplied by @_Mz, gives a peak stator voltage the rms value of which is denoted by
Ei, Wecan show that the d axis stator EMF corresponding to the field flux linkage \,
is given by
Alok M;/[Le) = V3Es (4.58)
By the same reasoning a field voltage v, corresponds (at steady state) to a field cur-
rent U;/r, This in turn corresponds to a peak stator EMF (vp/r,) oe Mp. If the rms
value of this EMF is denoted by Esp, the d axis stator EMF corresponds to a field volt-
age U; or
(s/7)onkMy = V3 Eso (4.59)
4.8 Normalizing the Voltage Equations
Having chosen appropriate base values, we may normalize the voltage equations
(4.39), Having done this, the stator equations should be numerically easier to deal with,
as all values of voltage and current will normally be in the neighborhood of unity. For
the following computations we add the subscript u to all pu quantities to emphasize
their dimensionless character, Later this subscript will be omitted when all values have
been normalized
The normalization process is based on (4.51) and a similar relation for the rotor,
which may be substituted into (4.39) to give

where all pu coefficients have been previously defined. The first equation is uncoupled
from the others and may be written as
Ve = =

Uf the currents are balanced, it is easy to show that this equation vanishes.
The fourth equation is normalized on a rotor basis and may be written from (4 60)
as

We now incorporate the base rotor inductance to normalize the last two terms as

where we have omitted the v, equation, since we are interested in balanced system con-
ditions in stability studies, and have rearranged the equations to show the d and q cou-
pling more clearly. It is important to notice that (4.74) is identical in notation to (4 39)
This is always possible if base quantities are carefully chosen and is highly desirable, as
the same equation symbolically serves both as a pu and a “system quantity” equation
Using matrix notation, we write (4.74) as
y= -(R + eN)i- Li po (475)
where R is the resistance matrix and is a diagonal matrix of constants, N is the matrix
of speed voltage inductance coefficients, and L is a symmetric matrix of constant
ductances. If we assume that the inverse of the inductance matrix exists, we may write
i= -L"(R + eN)i- Lv pu (476)
This equation has the desired state-space form It does not express the entire system be-
havior, however, so we have additional equations to write
Equation (4.76) may be depicted schematically by the equivalent circuit shown in102 Chapter 4
Fig 43 Synchronous generator d-g equivalent circuit
Figure 43, Note that all self and mutual inductances in the equivalent circuit are con
stants, and pu quantities are implied for all quantities, including time. Note also the
presence of controlled sources in the equivalent These are due to speed voltage terms
in the equations
Equation (4.74) and the circuit in Figure 4.3 differ from similar equations found in
the literature in two important ways. In this chapter we use the symbols L and M for
self and mutual inductances respectively. Some authors and most manufacturers refer
to these same quantities by the symbol x or XY This is sometimes confusing to one
learning synchronous machine theory because a term XJ that appears to be a voltage
may bea flux linkage The use of ¥ for L or M is based on the rationale that w is nearly
constant at 1.0 pu so that, in pu, ¥ = o£ & Z However, as we shall indicate in the
sections to follow, w is certainly not a constant; it is a state variable in our equations,
and we must treat it as a variable Later, in a linearized model we will let w be ap-
proximated as a constant and will simplify other terms in the equations as well
For convenience of those acquainted with other references we list a comparison of
these inductances in Table 42. Here the subscript notation kd and kq for D and Q re-
spectively is seen, These symbols are quite common in the literature in reference to the
damper windings

4.9 Normalizing the Torque Equations
In Chapter 2 the swing equation
JO = 21 /p)a = T, Nm (4.77)
is normalized by dividing both sides of the equation by a shaft torque that corresponds
to the rated three-phase power at rated speed (base three-phase torque), The result of
this normalization was found to be104 Chapter 4

where = angular velocity of the revolving magnetic field in elec rad/s

Wr/ Sass
A
and the derivative is with respect to time in seconds This normalization takes into
account the change in angular measurements from mechanical to electrical radians and
divides the equations by the base three-phase torque. Equation (4 78) is the swing equa-
tion used to determine the speed of the stator revolving MMF wave as a function of
time. We need to couple the electromagnetic torque T,, determined by the generator
equations, to the form of (4 78) Since (4.78) is normalized to a three-phase base torque
and our chosen generator VA base is a per phase basis, we must use care in combining,
the pu swing equation and the pu generator torque equation Rewriting (4 78) as
(2H/w)@ = Ty ~ T, puQdo) (4.79)
the expression used for 7, must be in pu on a three-phase VA base
Suppose we define
T,, = pu generator electromagnetic torque defined on a per phase VA base
= TAN m)/(Sp/#5) pu (4.80)
Then
T, = T.,/3 puG¢) (481)
(A similar definition could be used for the mechanical torque; viz, Tye = 37m. Usu-
ally, 7, is normalized on a three-phase basis )
The procedure that must be used is clear. We compute the generator electromag-
netic torque in Nom. This torque is normalized along with other generator quantities
on a basis of Sp, %, Ip, and fy to give T., Thus for a fully loaded machine at rated
speed, we would expect to compute 7,, = 30 Equation (481) transforms this pu
torque to the new value 7,, which is the pu torque on a three-phase basis.
4.9.1. The normalized swing equation
In (4 79), while the torque is normalized, the angular speed w and the time are given
in MKS units. Thus the equation is not completely normalized
The normalized swing equation is of the form given in (2,66)
Te — Toy = Toy DU (4.82)

where all the terms in the swing equation, including time and angular speed, are in pu

4.9.2. Forms of the swing equation
There are many forms of the swing equation appearing in the literature of power
system dynamics, While the torque is almost always given in pu, it is often not clear
which units of w and r are being used, To avoid confusion, a summary of the different
forms of the swing equation is given in this section.

fq is given in elec deg/s, (4.79) and (4.86) are modified as follows:
mae Toy pu (4.89)
ae =T. pu (490)
It would be tempting to normalize the swing equation on a per phase basis such
that all terms in (4.79) are in pu based on Sy rather than Sy). This could indeed be
done with the result that all values in the swing equation would be multiplied by three
This is not done here because it is common to express both T,, and 7, in pu on a three-
phase base Therefore, even though S, is a convenient base to use in normalizing the
generator circuits. it is considered wise to convert the generator terminal power and
torque to a three-phase base Sy, to match the basis normally used in computing the
machine terminal conditions from the viewpoint of the network (eg , in load-flow stud-
ies). Note there is not a similar problem with the voltage being based on V4, the
phase-to-neutral voltage, since a phase voltage of k pu means that the line-to-line volt-
age is also k pu on a line-to-line basis
4.10 Torque and Power
The total three-phase power output of a synchronous machine is given by
Pow = ala + Usiy + Velo = Yoschane PU 49l
where the superscript 1 indicates the transpose of v4, But from (48) we may write
jute = Ploy with a similar expression for the voltage vector Then (4.91) becomes
Pou = Wag(P*Y Pig
Performing the indicated operation and recalling that P is orthogonal, we find that106 Chapter 4
the power output of a synchronous generator is invariant under the transformation P;
ie,
Pou = Vala + Ugly + rio (4.92)
For simplicity we will assume balanced but not necessarily steady-state conditions.
Thus vy = i = Oand

4.12.4 Treatment of saturation
The flux linkage state-space model is convenient for considering the effect of satura-
tion because all the terms in the state equations (4 126)-(4.133) are linear except for the
magnetizing flux linkages Ap and dag
‘These are affected by saturation of the mutual
inductances Lp and L4g, and only these terms need to be corrected for saturation. In
the simulation of the machine, either by digital or analog computer, this can be accom-114 Chapter 4

plished by computing a saturation function to adjust (4 120) and (4.121) at all times to
reflect the state of the mutual inductances As a practical matter, the q axis inductance
Lg seldom saturates, so it is usually necessary to adjust only X4p for saturation.
The procedure for including the magnetic circuit saturation is given below [18]. Let
the unsaturated values of the magnetizing inductances be Lane and L4gq. The compu-
tations for saturated values of these inductances follow
For salient pole machines,
Lin = KLav0 Lag = Lago Ky = f(a) @ 139)
where K, isa saturation factor determined {rom the magnetization curve of the machine
For a round-rotor machine, we compute, according to [16]
Lan = Khao Lag = KL ago
K, =f) d= io + Nig)? (4 140)
To determine K, for the d axis in (4 139), the following procedure is suggested. Let
the magnetizing current, which is the sum of ig + ig + ip, be iy. The relation be-
tween \qo and iy is given by the saturation curve shown in Figure 47 For a given
value of Ap the unsaturated magnetizing cuttent is iyo, corresponding to Lavo
while the saturated value is iys The saturation function K, is a function of this mag-
netizing current, which in turn isa function of \4p
To calculate the saturated magnetizing current iys, the current increment needed to
satisfy saturation, iva = ius ~ lwo, is first calculated Note that saturation be-
gins at the threshold value Aypr corresponding to a magnetizing current yr. For flux
linkages greater than Xypr the current iya increases monotonically in an almost expo-
nential way. Thus we may write approximately
ius = 4,€xp[B.(Xao — Mor) Aan > avr 4141)
where A, and B, are constants to be determined from the actual saturation curve.
Knowing iva for a given value of Azo, the value of iys is calculated, and hence
K, is determined The solution is obtained by an iterative process so that the relation
DapK.Oran) = Lavoixs is satisfied
4.13 toad Equations
From (4 103) and (4.138) we have a set of equations for each machine in the form
% = 0,1 7p) 142)The Synchronous Machine ns
where x is a vector of order seven (five currents, w and 6 for the current model, or five
flux linkages, w and 6 for the flux linkage model), and v is a vector of voltages that
includes vj, U4, and v,
Assuming that uy and 7, are known, the set (4.142) does not completely describe
the synchronous machine since there are two additional variables vy and v, appeat-
ing in the equations. Therefore two additional equations are needed to relate v, and
v, 0 the state variables, These are auxiliary equations, which may or may not increase
the order of the system depending upon whether the relations obtained are algebraic
equations or differential equations and whether new variables are introduced To ob-
tain equations for v, and v, in terms of the state variables, the terminal conditions
of the machine must be known In other words, equations describing the load are
required
There are a number of ways of representing the electrical load on a synchronous
generator For example, we could consider the load to be constant impedance, con-
stant power, constant current, or some composite of all three For the present we re
quire a load representation that will illustrate the constraints between the generator
voltages, currents, and angula: velocity These constraints are found by solving the net-
work, including loads, given the machine terminal voltages For illustrative purposes
here, the load constraint is satisfied by the simple one machine-infinite bus problem
illustrated below.
4.13.1 Synchronous machine connected to an infinite bus
Consider the system of Figure 4.8 where a synchronous machine is connected to an
infinite bus through a transmission line having resistance R, and inductance L,. The
voltages and current for phase a only are shown, assuming no mutual coupling between
phases, By inspection of Figure 4.8 we can write vy = Ves + Reig + Lyi, or

suming that ¥...5. i8 a set of balanced three-phase voltages, or

which gives the constraint between the generator terminal voltage voy and the gen-
erator current igy for a given torque angle § Note that (4.149) is exactly the same
whether in MKS units or pu due to our choice of P and base quantities Note also that
there are two nonlinearities in (4 149) The first is due to the speed voltage term, the
wL,i product. There is also a nonlinearity in the trigonometric functions of the first
term .
The angle é is related to the speed by 5 = © ~ I pu or, in radians,
5+ fw onda (4.150)
Thus even this simple load representation introduces new nonlinearities, but the order
of the system remains at seven

The system described by (4 154) is now in the form of (4.37), namely, X = f(x, wD,
where x! = [iziripi, in wd]
The function f is @ nonlinear function of the state variables and 1, and u contains
the system driving functions, which are, Ue and Ty. The loading effect of the transmis-
sion line is incorporated in the matrices R, L,and N- The infinite bus voltage V_ appears
in the terms K sin y and K cos y Note also that these latter terms are not driving
functions, but rather nonlinear functions of the state variable 6
Because the system (4 154) is nonlinear, determination of its stability depends upon
finding a suitable Liapunov function or some equivalent method This is explored in
greater depth in Volume 2

4.14 Subtransient and Transient Inductances and Time Constants
If all the rotor ciscuits are short circuited and balanced three-phase voltages are
suddenly impressed upon the stator terminals, the ux linking the d axis circuit will de-
pend initially on the subtransient inductances, and after a few cycles on the transient
inductances.
Let the phase voltages suddenly applied to the stator be given by

Ina machine with damper windings, after a few cycles {rom the start of the transient
described in this section, the damper winding current decays rapidly to zero and the
effective stator inductance is the transient inductance
If the phase of the impressed voltages in (4 164) is changed by 90° (v, = V2 ¥
sin @), vs becomes zero and v, will have a magnitude of V3 V.
Before we examine the q axis inductances, some clarification of the circuits that may
exist in the axis is needed. For a salient pole machine with amortisseur windings a q
axis damper circuit exists, but there is no other q axis rotor winding. For such a ma-
chine the stator flux linkage after the initial subtransient dies out is determined by ¢s-124 Chopter 4
sentially the same circuit as that of the steady-state q axis flux linkage, Thus for a
salient pole machine jt is customary to consider the q axis transient inductance to be the
same as the q axis synchronous inductance.
The situation for a round rotor machine is different “Here the solid iron rotor pro-
vides multiple paths for circulating eddy currents, which act as equivalent windings
during both transient and subtransient periods. Such a machine will have effective q
axis rotor citcuits that will determine the q axis transient and subtransient inductances,
Thus for such a machine it is important to recognize that a g axis transient inductance
(much smaller in magnitude than L,) exists.
Repeating the previous procedure for the q axis citcuits of a salient pole machine,
dg = 0 = kMoi, + Lolg (4175)
or
ig = KMo/Lo)ig (4.176)
Substituting in the equation for \y,
Lyi + kKMoig (4.177)
or
Ay = [Le - KMo/Loli, 4 L
where £7 is the g axis subtransient inductance
Ly = Ly ~ (kMo}/Lg = Ly ~ Bolko (4.179)
We can also see that when ig decays to zero alter a few cycles, the q axis effective in-
ductance in the “transient period” is the same as L,, Thus for this type of machine
(4.178)
Loa Ly 4180)
Since the reactance is the product of the rated angular speed and the inductance and
since in pu a = 1, the subtransient and transient reactances ate numerically equal to
the corresponding values of inductances in pu
We should again point out that for a round rotor machine Lf < Lj > re, while Ly and L, are of similar magnitude Therefore we can
write, approximately,

Equation (4 186) shows that ip decays with a time constant
2
hy = SOS Mahe (4.187)
This is the d axis open circuit subrransient time constant It is denoted open circuit
because by definition the stator circuits are open
When the damper winding is not available or after the decay of the subtransient
current, we can show that the field current is affected only by the parameters of the
field circuit; ie,
rely + Lois = Veult) (4 188)
The time constant of this transient is the d axis transient open circuit time constant
ion where
tle = Le/re (4.189)
Kimbark [2] and Anderson [8] show that when the stator is short circuited, the cor-
responding d axis time constants are given by
ri = rhLt/Ls (4 190)
Ta = TaolalLe (4.191)
A similar analysis of the transient in the g axis circuits of a salient pole machine
shows that the time constants are given by
a = Loto 4192)
af = ribLi'/Ly (4.193)
For a round rotor machine both transient and subtransient time constants are present
Another time constant is associated with the rate of change of direct current in the
stator or with the envelope of alternating currents in the field winding, when the ma-
chine is subjected to a three-phase short circuit This time constant is 7, and is given
by (see {8],Ch 6)
te = Lalr (4.194)
where L, is the negative-sequence inductance, which is given by

4.15 Simplified Models of the Synchronous Machine
In previous sections we have dealt with a mathematical model of the synchtonous
machine, taking into account the various effects introduced by different rotor citcuits,
i.e., both field effects and damper-winding effects. The model includes seven nonlinear
differential equations for each machine In addition to these, other equations describing
the load (or network) constraints, the excitation system, and the mechanical torque must,
be included in the mathematical model, Thus the complete mathematical description
of a large power system is exceedingly complex, and simplifications are often used in
modeling the system
Ina stability study the response of a large number of synchronous machines to a
given disturbance is investigated. The complete mathematical description of the system
would therefore be very complicated unless some simplifications were used, Often only
a few machines are modeled in detail, usually those nearest the disturbance, while
others are described by simpler models The simplifications adopted depend upon the
location of the machine with respect to the disturbance causing the transient and upon
the type of disturbance being investigated Some of the more commonly used simplified
models are given in this section The underlying assumptions as well as the justifica-
tions for their use are briefly outlined In general, they are presented in the order of
their complexity
Some simplified models have already been presented. In Chapter 2 the classical
representation was introduced In this chapter, when the saturation is neglected as
tacitly assumed in the current model, the model is also somewhat simplified An ex-
cellent reference on simplified models is Young [19]
4.15.1 Neglecting damper windings—the E, model
The mathematical models given in Sections 4 10 and 4 12 assume the presence of
three rotor circuits Situations arise in which some of these circuits or theit effects can
be neglected
Machine with solid round rotor {2} The solid round rotor acts as a q axis damper
winding, even with the d axis damper winding omitted. The mathematical model for
this type of machine will be the same as given in Sections 4 10 and 4.12 with ip or
Ap omitted For example, in (4.103) and (4 138) the third row and column are omitted.
Amonisseur effects neglected This assumption assumes that the effect of the
damper windings on the transient under study is small enough to be negligible. This is
particularly true in system studies where the damping between closely coupled machines
is not of interest In this case the effect of the amortisseur windings may be included
in the damping torque, i e , by increasing the damping coefficient D in the torque equa-
tion Neglecting the amortisseur windings can be simulated by omitting ip and ig
in (4 103) or Ap and Ag in (4.138). Another model using familiar machine param-
eters is given below From (4.118), (4.123), (4.120), and (4.121) with the D and Q cir-
cuits omitted,

The above equations may be in pu or in MKS units This follows, since the choice
of the rotor base quantities is based upon equal flux linkages for base rotor and stator
currents. From the stator equation (4 36) and rearranging,
Ay = -rig ~ why — 04 pu (4.200)
or from (4.199) and (4 200)
Ay = wp, and Lj! = 1,’ Note that while some simplifying as-
sumptions are used in this model, the field effects and the effects of the damper cixcuits
are included in the machine representation
Stator subtransient flux linkages are defined by the equations
Made Lig Mo =A, - Lil, (4.230)
where Lj and LY’ are defined by (4170) and (4179) respectively Note that (4,230)
represents the more general case of (4 169), which represents a special case of zero
initial flux linkage. These flux linkages produce EMF’s that Jag 90° behind them. These
EMF’ ate defined by
er RON = ogdf ef & uM = — a dy (4.231)
(See [8] for a complete derivation.)
From (4.36) the stator voltage equations, under the assumptions stated above, are
given by
Ug = —rig — Rdg Uy = Ty + ORY (4.232)
Combining (4 230) and (4.232),
Uy = mtg ~ wei Le — onde

The voltages ef and ef are the d and g axis components of the EMF e” produced
by the subtransient flux linkage, the d and g axis components of which are given by
(4230) This EMF is called the voltage behind the subtransient reactance
Equations (4.234) when transformed to the a-b-c frame of reference may be repre-
sented by the equivalent circuit of Figure 412. If quasi-steady-state conditions are
assumed to apply at any instant, the relations expressed in (4.234) may be tepresented
by the phasor diagram shown in Figure 4 13. In this diagram the q and d axes represent
the real and imaginary axes respectively. “Projections” of the different phasors on these
axes give the q and d components of these phasors. For example the voltage £" is repre-
sented by the phasor F” shown Its components are £7 and Ej respectively From
the above we can see that if at any instant the terminal voltage and current of the ma-
chine are known, the voltage E” can be determined, Also if Ey and £/ are knowa, E”
can be calculated; and if the current is also known, the terminal voltage can be deter-
mined
We now develop the dynamic model for the subtransient case. Substituting (4 230)

Now from (4.246), (4.247), (4.231), (4.192), and (4.257) we get the differential equation
ef = eafth (4258)
The voltage equation for the field circuit comes from (4.36)
Up = Trip +e (4.259)
which can be put in the same form as (4 228)

where E is given by (4.248)
Equations (4 256), (4 258), and (4.260) give the time rate of change Ap, ef, and
Ez in terms of ip, e,. and £ The auxiliary equations (4 245), (4.248), and (4 254) re-
late these quantities to i, and i,, which in turn depend upon the load configuration The
voltage ey’ is calculated from (4 243).
To complete the model, the torque equation is needed From (4.95),
Teg = tga — tahy
By using (4 230) and recalling that in this model it is assumed that L} = 22,
Tyg = ig - WN (4261)
and if @ in pu is approximately equal to the synchronous speed, (4.261) becomes
Teg = Cd iy + ef ig (4.262)

Example 46
Use the machine data from Examples 4.1-4 $ to derive the time constants and gains
for the £” model
Solution
The time constant rf = 003046 s = 72 149 rad is already known from Exam-
ple 4.5. For the £” model we also need the following additional time constants
From (4.192) the q axis subtransient open circuit time constant is
rly = Lofro = 1.423 x 109/18 969 x 10°? = 0075s = 28.279 rad
which is about twice the d axis subtransient open circuit time constant
We also need the d axis transient open circuit time constant. It is computed from
(4.189).
Ty = Le[ts = 2189/0371 = 990s = 222425 rad
Note that this time constant is about 30 times the subtransient time constant in the d138 Chapter 4

To compute the gains, the constant xj or Lj is needed It is computed from
(4.174):
Li = Ly — Lip/Ly = 1.10 ~ (155)/1.651 = 0.245 pu
We can now compute from (4 271)

From (4.179) we compute

Then, from (4.270), we compute the gain, x, ~ x7 = 1.64 - 0185 = 1455 pu
ing iy and X, for a cylindrical rotor machine—the two-axis model
In the two-axis model the transient effects are accounted for, while the subtransient
effects are neglected [18] The transient effects are dominated by the sotor circuits,
which are the field circuit in the d axis and an equivalent circuit in the q axis formed
by the solid rotor An additional assumption made in this model is that in the stator
voltage equations the terms A, and }, are negligible compared to the speed voltage terms
and that o> &, = 1 pu
The machine will thus have two stator circuits and two rotor circuits. However, the
number of differential equations describing these circuits is reduced by two since hy and
}, ate neglected in the stator voltage equations (the stator voltage equations are now
algebraic equations)
The stator transient flux linkages are defined by

that since e) and ef are d and q axis stator voltages, they represent times the equiva-

This model is sometimes referred to in the literature as the one-axis model. It is
similar to the model presented in the previous section except that the absence of the Q
cirouit eliminates the differential equation for £5 or ¢) (which is a function of the
current ig). The voltage behind transient reactance e” shown in Figure 4 16 has only
the component e; changing by the field effects according to (4 290) and (4.293) The

equations are

4.15.5 Assuming constant flux linkage in the main field winding
From (4.228) we note that the voltage £{, which corresponds to the d axis field flux
linkage, changes at a rate that depends upon ry This time constant is on the order of
several seconds The voltage E,, depends on the excitation system characteristics. If
Ey does not change very fast and if the impact initiating the transient is short, in some
cases the assumption that the voltage E; (or e?) remains constant during the transient
can be justified Under this assumption the voltage behind transient reactance £' or e"
has a q axis component £; or e/ that is always constant, The system equation to be
solved is (4.296) with the network constraints (to determine the currents) and the condi-
tion that £; is constant
The next step in simplifying the mathematical model of the machine is to assume
that £; and £' are approximately equal in magnitude and that their angles with respect
to the reference voltage are approximately equal (or differ by a small angle that is con-
stant). Under these assumptions E' is considered constant. This is the constant voltage
behind transient reactance representation used in the classical model of the synchronous
machine
Example 4.8
The simplified model used in Section 4 15.2 (voltage behind subtransient reactance)
is to be used in the system of one machine connected to an infinite bus through a trans-
mission line discussed previously in Section 4.13. The system equations neglecting
saturation are to be developed
Solution
For the case where saturation is neglected, the system equations are given by
(4 263)-(4 268), This set of differential equations is a function of the state variables ef,
Yo» Ey, w, and 6 and the currents i and 4, Equation (4.266) expresses ef as a linear
combination of the variables Ey and Ap
For the mathematical description of the system to be complete, equations for i, and
i, in terms of the state variables are needed. These equations are obtained from the
load constraints
From the assumptions used in the model, ie, by neglecting the terms in A, and \,
in the stator voltage equations (compared to the speed voltage terms) and also by as-

4.16 Turbine Generator Dynamic Models
The synchronous machine models used in this chapter, which are in common use
by power system engineers, ate based on a classical machine with discrete physical
windings on the stator and rotor, As mentioned in Section 4.14, the solid iron rotor
used in large steam turbine generators provides multiple paths for circulating eddy cur
rents that act as equivalent damper windings under dynamic conditions The represen-
tation of these paths by one discrete circuit on each axis has been questioned for some
time. Another source of concern to the power engineer is that the value of the machine
constants (such as Lj, LJ, ete.) used in dynamic studies are derived from data ob-
tained from ANSI Standard C42.10 [16] This implicitly assumes two rotor circuits in
each axis—the field, one d axis amortisseur, and two g axis amortisseurs This in turn
implies the existence of inductances Ly, Lj Lf, Ly Lf, and L,! and time constants 7%,
Ths Ty and 1%, all of which are intended to define fault current magnitudes and decte-
ments, In some stability studies, discrepancies between computer simulation and field
data have been observed. It is now suspected that the reason for these discrepancies is
the inadequate definition of machine inductances in the frequency ranges encountered in
stability studies
Studies have been made to ascertain the accuracy of available dynamic models and
data for turbine generators [21-25]. These studies show that a detailed representation of
the rotor circuits can be more accurately simulated by up to three discrete rotor circuits
om thed axis and three on the g axis Data for these circuits can be obtained from fre-
quency tests conducted with the machine at standstill To fit the “conventional” view of
rotor circuits that influence the so-called subtransient and transient dynamic behavior
of the machine, it is found that two rotor circuits (on each axis) are sometimes adequate
but the inductances and time constants are not exactly the same as those defined in
IEEE Standatd No. 115

lent circuits on each axis made up of a number of circuits in parallel, The wansfer func-
tion for each is called an operational inductance of the form

The inductance versus frequency plot given in Figure 4.21 is nothing more than the
amplitude portion of the familiar Bode plot with the amplitude given in pu rather than
in decibels. The transfer functions plotted in Figure 421 can be approximated by the
superposition of multiple first-order asymptotic approximations, If this is done, the
break frequencies should give the constants of (4 304). The machine constants thus ob-
tained are given in the third column of Table 46 If, however, the machine constants
obtained from the standard data are used to obtain the breakpoints for the straight-line
approximation of the amplitude-frequency plots, the approximated curve does not pro-
vide a good fit to the experimental data For example, the d axis time constant 7% of the
machine, as obtained by standard methods, is 4.3 s If this is used to obtain the first
break frequency for log |1/(1 + 7493)J, the computed break frequency is
\fthy = 1/43 = 02326 rad/s = 0.00062 pu (4305)
The break point that gives a better fit of the experimental data corresponds to a
frequency of 0 1282 rad/s or 0.00034 pu. Since the amplitude at this frequency is the
reciprocal of the d axis transient time constant, this corresponds to an adjusted value,
denoted by zy, given by
rif = 1/0.1282 = 78 s (4306)
Reference {24] notes that the proper ajustment of ria, 7jo. and Ly are all particu-
larly important in stability stu
‘A study conducted by the Northeast Power Coordinating Council (26] concludes
that, in general, it is more important in stability studies to use accurate mackine data
than to use more elaborate machine models Also, the accuracy of any dynamic ma-
chine model is greatly improved when the so-called standard machine data are modified
to match the results of a frequency analysis of the solid iron rotor equivalent circuit
At the time of this writing no extensive studies have been reported in the literature to
support or dispute these results
Finally, a comparison of these results and the machine models presented in this
chapter are in order. The full model presented here is one of the models investigated in
the NPCC study [26] for solid rotor machines. It was found to be inferior to the more146 Chapter 4
elaborate model based on two rotor windings in each axis This is not surprising since
the added detail duc to the extra g axis amortisseur should result in an improved simula-
tion, Perhaps more surprising is the fact that the model developed here with F, D, and
Q windings provided practically no improvement over a simplet model with only F and
Qwindings Furthermore, with the F-Q model based on time constants tj and r/o,
larger digital integration time steps are possible than with models that use the much
shorter time constants 7% and 7/5, as done in this chapter
Asa general conclusion itis apparent that additional studies are needed to identify
the best machine data for stability studies and the proper means for testing ot estimating
these data This is not to imply that the work of the past is without merit. The tra~
ditional models, including those developed in this chapter, are often acceptable But,
as in many technical areas, improvements can and are constantly being made to pro-
vide mathematical formulations that better describe the physical apparatus

The Simulation
of Synchronous Machines
5.1, Introduction
This chapter covers some practical considerations in the use of the mathematical
models of synchronous machines in stability studies Among these considerations are
the determination of initial conditions, determination of the parameters of the machine
from available data, and construction of simulation models for the machine
In all dynamic studies the initial conditions of the system are required This in-
cludes all the currents, flux linkages, and EMF’s for the different machine circuits. The
number of these circuits depends upon the model of the machine adopted for the study
The initial position of the rotor with respect to the system reference axis must also be
known. These quantities will be determined from the data available at the terminals
of the machine
The machine models used in Chapter 4 require some data not usually supplied by
the manufacturer. Here we show how to obtain the required machine parameters from
typical manufacturer's data The remainder of the chapter is devoted to the construc
tion of simulation models for the synchronous machine, Both analog and digital
simulations are discussed
5.2. Steady-State Equations and Phasor Diagrams
The equations of the synchronous machine derived in Chapter 4 are differential
equations that describe machine behavior as a function of time When the machine
operates in a steady-state condition, differential equations are not necessary since all
variables are either constants or sinusoidal variations with time. For this situation
phasor equations are appropriate, and these will be derived. It is common to tacitly
assume all machines to be in a steady-state condition prior to a disturbance, The so-
galled “stability study” examines the system behavior following the disturbance The
phasor equations derived here permit the solution of the initial conditions that exist
prior to the application of the disturbance, This is a necessary part of any stability
investigation

From (4.5) with balanced conditions, ») = 0 Therefore, from (4 9) we may compute

Fig 51 Phasor diagram representing (5 14)
Substituting (5 12) and (5.11) in (5 10) and rearranging,

The phasor diagram representing (5 14) is shown in Figure 51 [1] Note that the
phasor jx,J, leads the g axis by 90° The phasor jx,I, makes a 90° angle with the nega-
tive d axis since [, is numerically negative for the case illustrated in Figure 51 To ob-
tain v, and v, from (5.4), we compute the rms stator equivalent voltages
Vz % vy/V3 = ~rly — thy VY, & vJV9 =~, + Xale +E (S18)
Note that V, and V, are the projection of ¥, along the q and d axes respectively
‘Also note that in the phasor diagram in Figure 5.1 both Vj and J, are illustrated as
negative quantities. Thus the magnitude of ri, is subtracted from x,J, to obtain
the magnitude of Vy This situation is shown in Figure 5 1 since lagging current (nega-
tive J,) is commonly encountered in practice Examining Figure 5.1 and (5.15), we
note that if the angle 6 is known the phasor diagram can be constructed quite readily
If the position of the g axis is not known but the terminal conditions of the machine

are given (ic., if ¥, %, and the angle between them are known), construction of
the phasor diagram requires some manipulation of (5 15) However, an alternate pro-
cedure for locating the position of the g axis is illustrated in Figure 5.2, where it is
assumed that ¥,, J,, and the power factor angle are known, Starting with V, (used
here as reference) the voltage drop 7/, is drawn parallel to T,. Then the voltage
drop jx,J, is added (this is a phasor perpendicular to 7,). The end of that phasor (Ey,
in Figure 5 2) is located on the g axis, This can be verified by noting that the d axis
component of the phasor jx,T, is x,J,, which is similar to that shown in Figure $1 Its
q axis component however is x,[,, Which is different from that shown in Figure 5.1
Thus to locate the phasor F in Figure 5 2, we add the phasor (xy — x,)Iy to the phasor

5.3 Machine Connected to an Infinite Bus through a Transmission Line
To illustrate more fully the procedure for finding the machine steady-state condi-
tions, we solve the simple problem of one machine connected to an infinite bus through
a transmission line Although this one-machine problem is far simpler than actual
systems, it serves well to illustrate the procedure of finding initial conditions for any
machine As we shall see later, this simple problem helps us concentrate on concepts
without becoming engulfed in details
The differential equations for one machine connected to an infinite bus through a
transmission line with impedance Z, = R, + joel, is given by (4 149) Under bal-
anced steady-state conditions with zero derivatives, (4 149) becomes
vg = — V3Vasin(8 — a) + Reig + oheiy
by = V3V, 008 (6 = a) + Reig — wLeie (5.16)
Substituting for v, and v, from (5 4) into (5.16),
mrig — wlgig = — V3, sin(5 — a) + Reig + Lei,
mri, + wlsig + KMywis = V3V. cos — a) + Reiy — wh cig
By using (5 7) and (5 11) and rearranging the above equations, we compute
Ea Vicos(5 - a) +0 + Rly ~ (es + XM
0 = —V.sin(S — @) + + Ry + Oy + XO 617)
where X, = wl, Equations (5 17) represent the components of the voltages along
the g and d axes respectively The phasor diagram described by these equations is
shown in Figure $3, where the phasot representing the infinite bus voltage V., with
the g axis as reference, is given by
Vi, = Vag + Vou = Vo cos (5 = a) — jV2sin(5 — a) (5.18)
Note that Figures 5 1 and 5.2 can be combined since the same q and d axes, the
same EMF £, and the same current J, are applicable to both Thus in Figure 5.3 the
machine terminal voltage components V, and V, can be obtained using (5.15) An
alternate procedure would be to start with the phasor V, in Figure 5.3, then add the
voltage drop RI, - X,lq in the g axis direction and the voltage drop Rely + Xely in
the d axis direction to obtain the phasor F,
‘Again remember that in Figure 5.3 both I, and Vj are shown as negative quanti-
ties. The remarks concerning the focation of the q axis starting from V. and [,
are also applicable here
