Abstract
This paper provides a detailed account of analytical work carried out to determine the parameters of power system stabilizers (PSS) for the Darlington nuclear generating station presently under construction in eastern Ontario. The results presented are, however, of general interest and provide a comprehensive analysis of the effects of the different stabilizer parameters on the overall dynamic performance of the power system. They show how stabilizer settings may be selected so as to enhance the steady-state and transient stability of local plant modes as well as inter-area modes in large interconnected systems. In addition, it is shown that the selected parameters result in satisfactory performance during system islanding conditions, when large frequency excursions are experienced. Darlington GS, when completed by 1992, will comprise four 1100 MVA, 0.85 p.f., 1800 RPM turbine generators with "CANDU-PHW" reactors, moderated and cooled by heavy water. The station will be incorporated into the 500 kV network through three double-circuit lines. The units will be equipped with transformer-fed thyristor excitation systems and Delta-P-Omega type PSS [1, 2].
