Abstract
A method of predetermining the torque-angle characteristic of a synchronous machine following a system disturbance is of importance in calculating the transient stability limit and in evaluating the effect on this limit of additional rotor circuits or of a change in excitation. In the first part of this paper equations are derived which are of sufficient generality to evaluate such factors. Two types of system disturbances are considered: 1. Switching in or out of a connecting line, 2. Occurrence of a balanced three-phase system fault. In the second part, an actual case of switching out a connecting line is calculated and the results compared with field tests taken on the New York Power and Light Corporation's system. No attempt has been made to draw any general conclusions as to the effect of amortisseurs or changes in excitation. A subsequent paper will present results which have been obtained from the application of the method presented in this paper.
