Short-term voltage stability analysis in power systems: A voltage solvability indicator

This paper presents an analytical study for short-term voltage stability based on a novel indicator. First, it is shown that the reduced Jacobian matrix of network equations can be transformed to obtain an approximately symmetric matrix which is usually positive definite when the system under study is stable. The minimum eigenvalue of the matrix is suggested as a short-term Voltage Solvability Indicator (VSI). Then, properties of the reduced conductive matrix and susceptance matrix which have significant impacts on VSI are examined. The focus of the study is power systems with multiple constant power injections, while VSI can also be applied to analyze the impact of generic power system models. It is shown that as the penetration level of constant power injections increases, VSI decreases and the system becomes more vulnerable to voltage collapse. Finally, the relationship between the eigenvalues of the reduced Jacobian matrix and the structure-preserving Jacobian matrix is established. As a result, the suggested VSI can be efficiently computed by exploring the sparsity of structure-preserving Jacobian matrix of network equations. Case studies of several test systems including a simplified 575-machine 8117-bus East China power system are reported, demonstrating the effectiveness and practicability of the proposed method.

Stability analysis of power system under n-1 contingency condition

Several voltage stability indices (VSIs) have been developed to assess the potential for voltage collapse. However, certain indexes are computationally costly. Meanwhile, some have been noted to underperform across various conditions. This work proposes a novel line index called the super voltage stability index (SVSI) to calculate the system's voltage stability margin (VSM). The suggested approach is based on the transmission system's two bus systems. The reactive power loss and N-1 contingency conditions to voltage sensitivity is a unique calculation approach used in this study to identify voltage instability. Day to day, the demand for electric power is being increased due to incessant increments in technology and population growth. Therefore, the power system networks are under pressure. The operational conditions of transmission system networks are affected at this point, which may result in voltage collapse. Regular monitoring of power supply is essential to avert voltage collapse. The effectiveness of the suggested index has been assessed using the IEEE 5 and 30-bus systems across diverse operating scenarios, including variations in active and reactive power loading as well as single line losses. The findings indicate that SVSI provides a more reliable indication of the proximity to voltage collapse when compared to conventional line VSIs.

Small signal stability analysis of a wind power system integrated with a multi-band supplementary damping controller

Abstract With the integration of wind turbines represented by doubly-fed induction generators (DFIG) into the power system, the inertia level of the system decreases sharply, and small disturbances can easily cause low-frequency oscillation (LFO) in the system. In this paper, we propose a multi-band supplementary damping controller (MBSDC) directly applied to the active power control link of the rotor-side converter in the wind power generation system. We establish a linearized model for DFIG integrated with the power system, calculate eigenvalues, and screen out multiple electromechanical oscillation modes to be suppressed. Based on the calculation results, an MBSDC is designed to suppress LFO, and we propose a parameter-setting algorithm to enhance the suppression effect. Taking the New England 10-generator 39-bus system containing DFIG as an example for simulation verification, the results show that the MBSDC and parameter setting algorithm designed in this paper can effectively suppress LFO.

Ensuring grid resilience: Voltage stability analysis and contingency ranking in electric power systems

Modern-day power systems are highly stressed and operate close to the stability limit. The bus voltage variation in power systems generally infringes on the researcher's mind about voltage stability. The main focus of this manuscript is the voltage stability problem and voltage security assessment rather than the angle stability problem. Voltage security can be determined by running a full-load AC load flow with contingency analysis. In real-time analysis, running thousands of contingencies in online mode is quite a cumbersome task, so here in this manuscript, we have proposed a functional link-based ANN for voltage security assessment and then predicted the weakest voltage control area by the entropy concept along with the placement of FACTS devices according to the voltage control area weakness factor and contingencies ranking. The novel technique is then tested with IEEE-14 Bus and IEEE-30 Bus systems with voltage stability performance indicators.

Dynamical heterogeneity and universality of power-grids

Electric power systems during transient states are extensively investigated using variations of the Kuramoto model to analyze their dynamic behavior. However, the majority of current models fail to capture the physics of power flows and the heterogeneity of the grids under study. This study addresses this gap by comparing the levels of heterogeneity in continent-sized power grids in Europe and North America to reveal the underlying universality and heterogeneity of grid frequencies, electrical parameters, and topological structures. Empirical data analysis of grid frequencies from the Hungarian grid indicates that q-Gaussian distributions best fit simulations, with spatio-temporally correlated noise evident in the frequency spectrum. Comparing European and North American power grids reveals that employing homogeneous transmission capacities to represent power lines can lead to misleading results on stability, and nodal behavior is heterogeneous. Community structures of the continent-sized grids are detected, demonstrating that Chimera states are more likely to occur when studying only subsystems. A topographical analysis of the grids is presented to assist in selecting such subsystems. Finally, synchronization calculations are provided to illustrate the occurrence of Chimera states. The findings underscore the necessity of heterogeneous grid models for dynamic stability analysis of power systems.

Innovative Approach to Enhance Stability: Neural Network Control and Aquila Optimization Integration in Single Machine Infinite Bus Systems

This paper highlights the need to improve the stability of single-machine infinite-bus (SMIB) systems, which is crucial for maintaining the dependability, efficiency, and safety of electrical power systems. The changing energy environment, characterized by a growing use of renewable sources and more intricate power networks, is challenging established stability measures. SMIB systems exhibit dynamic behavior, particularly during faults or unexpected load variations, requiring sophisticated real-time stabilization methods to avert power failures and provide a steady energy supply. This paper suggests a complex approach that combines power system stability analysis with a neural network controller enhanced by the Aquila optimization algorithm (AOA) to address the dynamic issues of SMIB systems. The study shows that the AOA-optimized neural network (AOA-NN) controller outperforms in avoiding disruptions and attaining speedy stabilization by exhaustively examining electrical, mechanical, and rotor dynamics. This method improves power system resilience and operational efficiency as demands and technology expand.

Stability Analysis in a Direct-Current Shipboard Power System with Parallel Permanent Magnet Synchronous Generators and Supercapacitor Integration

This paper investigates the small-signal stability of a DC shipboard power system (SPS) with the integration of a supercapacitor. As an efficient energy storage solution, supercapacitors can not only provide rapid energy response to sudden power demand spikes, effectively mitigating load fluctuations, but also enhance the system’s resilience to disturbances. In the context of the parallel operation of two Permanent Magnet Synchronous Generators (PMSGs), the inclusion of supercapacitors may alter the system’s dynamic behaviors, thereby affecting its small-signal stability. This paper develops the small-signal model of SPS and explores the small-signal model under various power distribution strategies in the parallel operation of diesel generator sets. Through the calculation of eigenvalues and influence factors, the system’s oscillation modes are analyzed, and key parameters affecting the stability of the DC distribution system are identified. Furthermore, this paper meticulously examines the specific impacts of electrical and control parameter variations on the system’s small-signal stability. Simulation experiments validate the accuracy of the small-signal stability analysis after supercapacitor integration into SPS.

Equivalence of Impedance Participation Analysis Methods for Hybrid AC/DC Power Systems

Participation analysis based on whole-system impedance models enables the root-cause stability analysis of large-scale power systems when state-space models are unavailable. To extend participation analysis to the hybrid AC/DC system, especially for the interlinking converter, this paper proposes two complementary methods, namely the <italic xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">direct method</i> and the <italic xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">indirect method</i> . The direct method treats the interlinking converter as hybrid AC-DC port apparatus and the participation factor can be defined with the terminal hybrid AC-DC impedance matrix correspondingly. As for the indirect method, system equivalence can be made at the AC or DC terminal of the interlinking converter when impedance models within subsystems are unavailable such that preliminary knowledge of systems can be simplified. Importantly, the equivalence of these two methods on the observability of system components is revealed through theoretical analysis. The proposed impedance participation analysis methods are illustrated with a 4-bus hybrid AC/DC system, a modified 28-bus hybrid AC/DC system and a modified 96-bus hybrid AC/DC system. Numerical calculations and time-domain simulations are performed to validate the theoretical analysis.

Fractional-Order Sliding Mode Load Frequency Control and Stability Analysis for Interconnected Power Systems With Time-Varying Delay

The universal use of open communication networks in interconnected power systems has changed the constant delay in the formerly dedicated channels into time-varying delay. The delay will deteriorate the dynamic performance of the load frequency control and lead to system frequency instability. This paper presents a fractional-order sliding mode controller for interconnected power systems with time-varying delay and performs stability analysis based on the Lyapunov direct method. Firstly, fractional-order integral sliding mode control is used to improve the stability of interconnected power systems containing time-varying delay. This expands the delay margin by taking advantage of the scalability of the fractional-order to the sliding mode surface. Then, the Riemann-Liouville fractional-order Lyapunov functional is introduced to stability analysis. This reduced the conservatism of the stability analysis by adjusting the upper limit of the functional integral. Lastly, combining Lyapunov's theory and integral inequality to obtain the stability conditions of the time-varying delay power system described by linear matrix inequality, and bring the stability margin of the system. The simulation results show that the designed controller can guarantee that the maximum delay time of the system is less than a predefined upper limit. The proposed control strategy obtains a larger stability margin than the other four scenarios. Additional simulation study was also conducted to verify its robustness to load variations and wind fluctuations.
