Abstract

A numerical study of the widely used fixed-threshold criterion for expressing transient stability constraints in optimal power flow (TSCOPF) is conducted. Based on a stability-region framework, a more accurate expression of transient stability constraint in TSCOPF is presented. A method for computing system exact threshold values is proposed and employed for the study of threshold values under different conditions. It is shown via numerical results on the WSCC9 and IEEE145 systems that the exact threshold value for each system and contingency is in fact not a constant, and can vary greatly depending on several factors such as types of contingency, loading conditions, and network topology.
