BEE 4223 Lecture 22-25 - Power Systems Stability

The document discusses methods for assessing power system stability, focusing on the Equal Area Criterion Method which compares energies during system acceleration and deceleration. It includes applications of this method during faults, calculations for critical clearing time, and factors influencing transient stability. Additionally, it outlines methods for improving transient stability in power systems.

LECTURE 22 - 25: POWER SYSTEM STABILITY


Lecture Notes by H. Zurua 1
Methods of Assessing Transient Stability
2. Equal Area Criterion Method
• The principle of the method involves comparison of energies
injected into the system during acceleration and the energy
absorbed during deceleration
• If the two balance, then stability is assumed
• The electrical power output-load angle characteristic of a SMIB
system (lossless case) is as shown below
