Power system stability and security methods with applications to restorative state operation

Praprost, Kenneth Lee

Abstract Details

1993, Doctor of Philosophy, Case Western Reserve University, Systems and Control Engineering.
This thesis addresses various electric power system stability and security problems. The primary focus is on the dynamic aspects associated with restoring service to a power system that has lost some of its load and/or has separated into electrical islands. An off-line methodology is presented for determining and evaluating restoration decision and control actions. This methodology is an extension of Nadira's hierarchical restoration procedure (1989, 1992). The major additions developed in this thesis are related to the optimizing control problem of the original restoration procedure, and include the following: (i) a dynamic implementation and evaluation of the optimizing control problem solution, and (ii) a method for evaluating and enhancing the security of an island with respect to potential disturbances that may occur during the restoration period. such that the bus voltage magnitudes and line power flows remain within pre-defined limits. Based on this new theory, the energy function stability method may be extended to incorporate systems with more general constraints. Several examples are presented to illustrate the results
