In this case, the problem becomes apparent through angular/frequency swings in some
generators which may lead to their loss of synchronism with other generators.
Transient Stability
The system nonlinearities determine the system response; hence, linearization does
not work in this case.
Transient Stability
For small disturbances, the problem is to determine if the resulting steady state
condition is stable or unstable (eigenvalue analysis) or a bifurcation point (e.g. Hopf bifurcation).
For large disturbances, the steady state condition after the disturbance can exist and
be stable, but it is possible that the system cannot reach that steady state condition.
Transient Stability
Transient Stability
Based on non linear theory, this analysis can be basically viewed as determining
wheter the fault trajectory at the clearance point is outside or inside of the stability region of the post-contingency s.e.p.
Given the complexity of power system models, the most reliable analysis tool for these
types of studies is full time domain simulations.

The ODE for the simplest generator d-axis transient model and neglecting AVR and
generator limits is:

The objective is to determine how much time an operator would have to connect the capacitor bank BC after a severe contingency, simulated here as a sudden increase in the value of the reactance X , so that the system recovers. In this case, and as previously discussed in the voltage stability section, the
contingency is severe, as the s.e.p. disappears.
Full time domain simulations are carried out to study this problem for the parameter values M = 0.1, DG = 0.01, DL = 0.1, = 0.01, E = 1, Pd = 0.7, k = 0.25, BC = 0.5.

Direct Methods
Time domain analysis is expensive, so direct stability analysis technique have been
proposed based on Lyapunovs stability theory.
The idea is to dene an energy or Lyapunov function (x, xs ) with certain characteristics to obtain a direct measure of the stability region A(xs ) associated with the post-contingency s.e.p. xs . A systems energy is usually a good Lyapunov function, as it yields a stability
measure.
Direct Methods
The rolling ball example can used to explain the basic behind these techniques:
u.e.p.2
v m
u.e.p.1
s.e.p.
There are 3 equilibrium points: one stable (valley bottom), two unstable (hill tops).
Direct Methods
The energy of the ball is a good Lyapunov or Transient Energy Function (TEF): W = = = = Wkinetic + Wpotential WK + WP 1 mv 2 + mgh 2 ([v, h]T , 0)
The potential energy at the s.e.p. is zero, and presents local maxima at the u.e.p.s (WP 1 and WP 2 ). The closest u.e.p. is u.e.p.1 since WP 1 < WP 2 .
Direct Methods
The stability of this system can then be evaluated using this energy:
if W
< WP 1 , the ball remains in the valley, i.e. the system is stable, and will converge to the s.e.p. as t . > WP 1 , the ball might or might not converge to the s.e.p., depending on
friction (inconclusive test).
If W
When the balls potential energy WP (t) reaches a maximum with respect to time t, the system leaves the valley, i.e. unstable condition.
Direct Methods
The valley would correspond to the stability region when friction is large. In this case, the stability boundary A(xs ) corresponds to the ridge where the u.e.p.s are located and WP has a local max. value. The smaller the friction in the system, the larger the difference between the ridge and A(xs ). For zero friction, A(xs ) is dened by WP 1 .
Direct Methods
The direct stability test is only a necessary but not sufcient condition: (x, xs ) < c (x, xs ) > c x A( x s )
Inconclusive!
where the value of c is usually associated with a local maximum of a potential energy function.

Assuming a 100 MVA base, determine the critical clearing time for this generator if the damping is neglected and its inertia is assumed to be H = 5 s. Assuming D = 0.1 s, determine the actual critical clearing time.

Generator-motor, i.e. system-system, cases may also be studied using the EAC method based on an equivalent inertia M = M1 M2 /(M1 M2 ), and damping D = M D1 /M1 = M D2 /M2 . For the generator-load example neglecting the internal generator impedance and
assuming an instantaneous AVR:

The energy functions, with or without generator limits, can be shown to be: WK WP = = 1 M 2 2 B (V1 V2 cos V10 V20 cos 0 ) 1 1 2 2 2 + B (V2 V20 ) + B (V12 V10 ) 2 2 V2 QG ln Pd ( 0 ) + Qd ln V20
V1 V10
The stability of this system can then be studied using the same energy evaluation previously explained for T EF = (x, x0 ) = WK + WP .
Thus for V1 = 1, XL = 0.5, Pd = 0.1, and Qd = 0.25Pd , the potential energy WP (, V2 ) that denes the stability region withr espect to the s.e.p. is:

With the SVC device, one has: P12 = P1m 2V 2 V1 Vm sin 1m = sin = X/2 X 2 =V.
We can generalize the active power that can be transmitted from bus 1 to bus 2 using n SVC devices, as follows: P12 (n + 1)V 2 sin = X (n + 1)

Critical clearing times are not really an issue with current fast acting protections. Simplied direct methods such as the Extended Equal Area Criterion (Y. Xue et al.,
Extended Equal Area Criterion Revisited, IEEE Transaction on Power Systems, Vol. 7, No. 3, Aug. 1992, pp. 1012-1022) have been proposed and tested for on-line contingency pre-ranking, and are being implemented for practical applications through an E.U. project.
