Abstract

ABSTRACT The synchronous machines in power systems have the excitation systems of field winding to improve the transient stability of power systems. The synchronous machines are nonlinear systems, however, the excitation systems have been designed based on linearized systems, because the stability analysis of nonlinear systems is difficult and the generalized control method of nonlinear systems has not been developed yet. This paper proposes a nonlinear excitation controller for synchronous machines in power systems. For the sake of simplification of the nonlinear state feedback control, this paper considers both the transient stability and the suppression of the rotor swings in transient conditions. The effect of the automatic voltage regulator (AVR) for the synchronous generator is not discussed here. This controller is designed based on Lyapunov's direct method that can directly judge the stability of nonlinear systems. The usefulness and validity of the proposed excitation controller are confirmed by ...
