The document describes power system analysis and various power flow methods. It introduces components of a power system like generators, transformers and transmission lines. It discusses modeling of these components and defines per unit quantities. Various power flow analysis methods like Gauss-Seidel and Newton-Raphson are summarized. Bus classification into slack, PV and PQ buses is also covered along with the formulation of Ybus and Zbus matrices for power flow studies.

COMPARISION BETWEEN ITERATIVE
METHODS
Gauss – Seidal Method
1. Computer memory requirement is less.
2. Computation time per iteration is less.
3. It requires less number of arithmetic operations to
complete an iteration and ease in programming.
4. No. of iterations are more for convergence and rate of
convergence is slow (linear convergence
characteristic.
5. No. of iterations increases with the increase of no. of
buses.
37. EE2351 R.KALAIVANI AP/EEE 37
NEWTON – RAPHSON METHOD
Superior convergence because of quadratic convergence.
It has an 1:8 iteration ratio compared to GS method.
More accurate.
Smaller no. of iterations and used for large size systems.
It is faster and no. of iterations is independent of the no. of buses.
Technique is difficult and calculations involved in each iteration are
more and thus computation time per iteration is large.
Computer memory requirement is large, as the elements of jacobian
matrix are to be computed in each iteration.
Programming logic is more complex.
38. EE2351 R.KALAIVANI AP/EEE 38
FAST DECOUPLED METHOD
It is simple and computationally efficient.
Storage of jacobian matrix elements are60% of NR
method
computation time per iteration is less.
Convergence is geometric,2 to 5 iterations required for
accurate solutions
Speed for iterations is 5 times that of NR method and 2-3
times of GS method

STABILITY
The tendency of a power system to develop restoring
forces equal to or greater than the disturbing forces to
maintain the state of equilibrium.
Ability to keep the machines in synchronism with another
machine
66. EE2351 R.KALAIVANI AP/EEE 66
CLASSIFICATION OF STABILITY
Steady state stability
Ability of the power system to regain synchronism after small and
slow disturbances (like gradual power changes)
Dynamic stability
Ability of the power system to regain synchronism after small
disturbances occurring for a long time (like changes in turbine
speed, change in load)
Transient stability
This concern with sudden and large changes in the network
conditions i.e. . sudden changes in application or removal of loads,
line switching operating operations, line faults, or loss of excitation.
67. EE2351 R.KALAIVANI AP/EEE 67
Steady state limit is the maximum power that can be
transferred without the system become unstable when
the load in increased gradually under steady state
conditions.
Transient limit is the maximum power that can be
transferred without the system becoming unstable when
a sudden or large disturbance occurs.

Rotor Angle Stability
• It is the ability of interconnected synchronous machines
of a power system to maintain in synchronism. The
stability problem involves the study of the electro
mechanical oscillations inherent in power system.
• Types of Rotor Angle Stability
1. Small Signal Stability (or) Steady State Stability
2. Transient stability
73. EE2351 R.KALAIVANI AP/EEE 73
Voltage Stability
It is the ability of a power system to maintain steady
acceptable voltages at all buses in the system under
normal operating conditions and after being subjected to
a disturbance.
The major factor for instability is the inability of the
power system to meet the demand for reactive power.
74. EE2351 R.KALAIVANI AP/EEE 74
• Mid Term Stability
It represents transition between short term and long
term responses.
Typical ranges of time periods.
1. Short term : 0 to 10s
2. Mid Term : 10 to few minutes
3. Long Term : a few minutes to 10’s of minutes
• Long Term Stability
Usually these problem be associated with
1. Inadequacies in equipment responses.
2. Poor co-ordination of control and protection equipment.
3. Insufficient active/reactive power reserves.

Equal Area Criterion
• This is a simple graphical method to predict the transient
stability of two machine system or a single machine
against infinite bus. This criterion does not require swing
equation or solution of swing equation to determine the
stability condition.
• The stability conditions are determined by equating the
areas of segments on power angle diagram.
76. EE2351 R.KALAIVANI AP/EEE 76
Power-angle curve for equal area criterion
multiplying swing equation by on both sides
Multiplying both sides of the above equation by dt and then integrating between two arbitrary angles δ0 and δc
77. EE2351 R.KALAIVANI AP/EEE 77
Once a fault occurs, the machine starts accelerating. Once the fault is cleared, the
machine keeps on accelerating before it reaches its peak at δc ,
The area of accelerating A1
The area of deceleration is given by A2
If the two areas are equal, i.e., A1 = A2, then the power system will be stable
78. EE2351 R.KALAIVANI AP/EEE 78
Critical Clearing Angle (δcr) maximum allowable value of the clearing time and angle for
the system to remain stable are known as critical clearing time and angle.
δcr expression can be obtained by substituting δc = δcr in the equation A1 = A2
Substituting Pe = 0 in swing equation
Integrating the above equation
79. EE2351 R.KALAIVANI AP/EEE 79
Replacing δ by δcr and t by tcr in the above equation, we get
the critical clearing time as

Factors Affecting Transient Stability
• Strength of the transmission network within the system
and of the tie lines to adjacent systems.
• The characteristics of generating units including inertia of
rotating parts and electrical properties such as transient
reactance and magnetic saturation characteristics of the
stator and rotor.
• Speed with which the faulted lines or equipments can be
disconnected.
