ECE 550 Power System Stability

Electromechanical dynamic modeling, analysis, calculations related to transient and steady-state stability within electric power systems. Factors affecting power system transient stability: load, generation, network topology, protection clearing times, reclosing. Machine models. The swing equation. Equal area criterion. dq0 modeling of synchronous machines. P-f, Q-V loops for synchronous machine control.
