Study on stability margin of ultra-low frequency oscillation in hydropower system

Abstract

In recent years, the ultra-low frequency oscillation of power system caused by hydropower units has occurred frequently. It is very important to study the ultra-low frequency oscillation characteristics of hydropower stations for the stable operation of power system. It is worth further research on how to determine the system stability margin in engineering practice. Based on the established model of single machine system with load, the analysis of the characteristic equation of closed-loop transfer function of single machine system shows that the ultra-low frequency oscillation will occur when the ratio of proportional parameter to integral parameter is too small. Based on the single machine with load system model and the equivalent single machine with load model of multi machine system, the ultra-low frequency oscillation mode of the system is analyzed by eigenvalue analysis method. According to the requirements of the damping ratio index, the security domain of the system ultra-low frequency oscillation is constructed, and the risk and stability margin of the system ultra-low frequency oscillation are evaluated by the characteristic values of the system ultra-low frequency oscillation mode.
