DYNAMIC STABILITY IN POWER SYSTEM USING PSS AND SVC

The book started with a fundamental discussion on the dynamic stability problem. The basic model of a synchronous machine is overviewed. The dynamic model of PSS and SVC FACTS controller and their installation in Single Machine Infinite Bus power system is the major thrust area of this book. The effectiveness and performance of the SVC FACTS controllers are investigated and compared and particularly superiority of these SVC FACTS controller over traditional PSS has been shown in facing commonly occurring power system disturbances. The salient features of this book are:(i) Easy understanding of dynamic stability problem and its different ways of mitigation (ii) Heffron-Phillips model of the system (iii) Model of supplementary damping controllers for PSS and SVC FACTS device (iv) Single Machine Infinite Bus (SMIB) system with PSS and SVC in order to mitigate dynamic stability problem (v) State feedback controller based on LQR concept applied to a SMIB system with PSS and SVC FACTS controller.(vi) MATLAB program for SMIB system with PSS, SVC FACTS controller with LQR.
