Abstract

The basic concepts of transient rotor angle stability are presented in this chapter. The synchronous machine model with its auxiliary controllers and load models are discussed. The procedure to combine all dynamic models with the transmission network model to perform a dynamic simulation is presented. Although the modelling in this chapter is limited to the synchronous machine and loads, the algorithm of simulation is presented in a general manner to equip the reader with the understanding of how to expand the algorithm to include any dynamic device. A case study is used to demonstrate how to interpret the results of a simulation. The conventional modelling method presented in this chapter is not suitable to simulate faster transients introduced by power electronic devices in modern power systems. The chapter concludes with a short discussion on these limitations and new developments to resolve them.
