| Course contents : | 1st part. Modelling of components and of their controls
- dynamics of synchronous generator : time constants, inductances, state equations, per unit systems, rotor motion
- power system modelling and simulation under the quasi-sinusoidal approximation
- controls of the synchronous machine: turbines and speed governors, excitation systems and automatic voltage regulators
- other components: induction machines, static var compensators (SVCs), fixed and variable series compensation (FACTS devices).
2nd part. Stability
- Transient angle stability (large disturbances): analysis of the one-machine infinite-bus system (equal area criterion), general analysis methods, means to improve transient stability
- small-signal angle stability: analysis of the one-machine infinite-bus system, analysis of a general system, modal analysis. Stability improvement: design of controllers for oscillation damping, mainly the power system stabilisers
- frequency stability : définition, description
- voltage stability: analysis of short-term and long-term instability mechanisms, stability improvement. Specific analysis methods.
3rd part. Unbalanced faults
Analysis using the Fortescue components method. |
