This work evaluates the performance of a particular differential-algebraic equation solver, referred to as DASSL, in power system voltage stability computer applications. The solver is tested for a time domain long-term voltage stability scenario, including transient disturbances, using a real power system model. Important insights into the mechanisms of the DASSL solver are obtained through the use of this real model, including control devices relevant to the simulated phenomena. The results indicate that if properly used, the solver can be a powerful numerical tool in time domain assessment of long-term power system stability since it comprises, among several important features, suitable and very efficient variable order and variable step-size numerical techniques. These characteristics are very important when CPU time is a great concern, which is the case when the power system operator needs reliable results in a short period of time. Prior to the present work, this solver has never been applied in power system stability computer analysis in time domain considering slow and fast phenomena.

The preset work tested a freely domain software for solving index zero and one systems of differential-algebraic equations, named as DASSL. The code encompasses an efficient variable step size and variable order based on BDF methods to solve a system of DAEs or ODEs. The code was applied in power systems time domain studies, i.e., synchronous machine angular transient stability and long-term voltage stability, using the Brazilian South-Southeast Equivalent Power System. Using this real power system model including fast and slow response control devices, it was possible to investigate the code capability in simulating different stability phenomena in the same run. The variable step size and variable order algorithm implemented in DASSL results in a very powerful tool for power system time domain computer simulation.

Power system stability is gaining importance because of unusual growth in power system. Day by day use of nonlinear load and other power electronics devices created distortions in the system which creates problems of voltage instability. Voltage stability of system is major concerns in power system stability. When a transmission network is operated near to their voltage stability limit it is difficult to control active-reactive power of the system. Our objectives are the analysis of voltage stability margin and active-reactive power control in proposed system which includes model of STATCOM with aim to analyse its behavior to improve voltage stability margin and active-reactive power control of the system under unbalanced condition. The study has been carried out using MATLAB Simulation program on three phase system connected to unbalanced three phase load via long transmission network and results of voltage and active-reactive power are presented. In future work, we can do power flow calculation of large power system network and find the weakest bus of the system and by placing STATCOM at that bus we can improve over all stability of the system

In recent years, wind power in China developed rappidly. More and more problems occurred with the integration of large-scale wind power. Arounding the issues of power system stability which are resulted from the integration of wind power and ite relevant technology, this paper mainly introduced the voltage stability from the angle of the definition and the classification, and analyzed power systems which contains wind farms from the angle of the research contents and methods of static and dynamic voltage stability, especially emphasizing the necessity of the bifurcation theory used in power system contains wind power.

Low frequency oscillations (LFO) reflect the damping and the stability of a power system and is essentially non-stationary. The LFO is a composite response of various oscillation modes and of which the frequency may be changing with time; thus, direct analysis of such time-domain responses is difficult. The main purpose of this paper is to apply the method of empirical mode decomposition (EMD) to the study of power system stability. First the method of EMD is to expand the time-domain responses under study into multiple intrinsic mode functions (IMFs). Then the 2D time-frequency information inherent in the response under study is obtained using the wavelet transform. The 2D time-frequency graph is further expanded into a 3D time-frequency-energy graph. Information from the 3D time-frequency graph is analyzed to determine those generators that have higher extent of oscillation involvement during the occurrence of LFO in the power system. The results from comparative analysis show that, at specific frequencies from LFOs, higher extent of oscillation involvement will reveal a greater factor of involvement in the frequency domain behavior.
