Abstract
Nonlinearity of power system is always one of the difficulties when dealing with dynamic simulation of power systems. Solving differential-algebraic equations representing power systems are difficult without losing nonlinearity, especially for large power systems. This thesis shows an alternative method to solve nonlinear dynamical power system by producing a purely differential representation of the power systems. This new representation converts the algebraic equations to differential equations in order to have an absolute differential system. By using Runge-Kutta algorithm to solve this differential system, the results of the power system simulations are compared to trapezoidal integration algorithm commonly used to solve the differential-algebraic equations. In this thesis, IEEE 14-bus system and IEEE 118-bus system are tested with both classical generator model generator model and two-axis generator model in MATLAB. The proposed algorithm shows significantly faster convergence comparted to trapezoidal integration method in larger power systems. It is a great improvement to shorten the simulation time in while keeping the same accuracy in large power systems.
