Abstract:

In the long-term dynamics of large-scale interconnected power system (LIPS), some crises may occur due to the slow-frequency dynamics and the slow-voltage dynamics. As a result, large blackouts take place. In order to solve this problem, the slow-frequency dynamics for LIPS with preserved network structure is modeled and simulated, which is the first step in the controllor design for slow-frequency dynamics. By taking the frequency of COI (Center of Inertia) in an area as the uniform frequency of the area, the corresponding model describing the slow-frequency dynamics is proposed, and an algorithm for time-domain simulation is presented. The proposed method is finally applied to a 2-area 4-machine system and a 3-area 30-bus IEEE system. The results show that, as compared with the conventional transient stability program in the 4-machine system, the proposed model and method are both more feasible and effective.
