The rotor shaft of a steam turbine generator consists of several masses, such as rotors of turbine sections, generator section and exciter section. When the generator is perturbed, it will cause torsional oscillation between different sections. In long-distance high-capacity transmission lines, series compensation with capacitors can enhance power transfer capability of power system, however it may cause subsynchronous resonance (SSR) between the turbine shaft and serial compensation., which produce large shaft torques can result in a reduction in the shaft fatigue life and possibly shaft failure, threatening the security of generator unit and stability of power system. In China the 1000kV HVAC transmission line with series compensation has been put in operation since 2009. Near the Nanyang substation, there has a power plant in Henan power grid. So it is necessary to model the power plant and HVAC transmission line to simulate the possibility of SSR problem. Based on the power system simulation software ADPSS developed by China Electric Power Research Institute (CEPRI), this paper built up the simulation model using the electromechanical-electromagnetic transient hybrid method, and simulated the SSR possibility between the power plant and HVAC transmission line series compensation. The simulation results showed that with the generator parameters given, there has no risk of SSR between them. This paper also gives an evaluation principle of generator SSR risk when connected into a power grid.

TL (Transmission Line) congestion is a key factor that affects the power system operational cost. In addition of renewable generation in National Grid of Pakistan, transmission line congestion are frequent. Consequently, the network in this particular region faces severe congestion and dynamic stability problems. It has been planned that renewable plants shaved to curtail some available generation to minimize this inevitable congestion. However, one of the cost-efficient solutions to this problem is series compensation of lines using TCSC (Thyristor Controlled Series Compensation). It significantly increases the transfer capability of existing power transmission and enhances the dynamic stability of system at a lower cost, and has shorter installation time as compared to the construction of new TLs. This paper deals with the dynamic modeling of a TCSC in the NTDC (National Transmission and Dispatch Company) network with its applications to alleviate congestion during fault conditions. This study has been carried out using simulation software PSS/E (Power System Simulator for Engineers) which does not have a predefined dynamic model for TCSC, this leads to the necessity of creating a user defined model. The model of TCSC has been programmed in FORTRAN and compiled along with existing dynamic models of network components. The results indicate that power flow and dynamic stability of network is enhanced

This article deals with the energy transmission line system which feeds from solar energy at the MATLAB Simulink. So, direct voltage is considered to be converted as an alternating voltage by a 35-level inverter after the solar power plant which has the power of 110 MW an produce 360 kV of direct voltage. A line which covers 240 km of distance is preferred to transmit electrical power from the A1 point to an A2 point. Due to this, the required mathematical equations are calculated with a circuit analyzing method for the line modeling in the simulation. Experiments on the model are carried out at the MATLAB Simulink after the creation of an energy transmission line. After that, when measurements are made taking into consideration the A2 node; the capacitor voltage, the transformer current, the A2 node current, and the fault current, values are given according to the converted voltage at the frequencies of 100 Hz, 80 Hz, and 50 Hz. The obtained results demonstrate the success of the proposed line system, while power is distributed with eliminated fault at a long distance at different frequencies.

The use of a unified power flow controller (UPFC) to control the bifurcations of a subsynchronous resonance (SSR) in a multi-machine power system is introduced in this study. UPFC is one of the flexible AC transmission systems (FACTS) where a voltage source converter (VSC) is used based on gate-turn-off (GTO) thyristor valve technology. Furthermore, UPFC can be used as a stabilizer by means of a power system stabilizer (PSS). The considered system is a modified version of the second system of the IEEE second benchmark model of subsynchronous resonance where the UPFC is added to its transmission line. The dynamic effects of the machine components on SSR are considered. Time domain simulations based on the complete nonlinear dynamical mathematical model are used for numerical simulations. The results in case of including UPFC are compared to the case where the transmission line is conventionally compensated (without UPFC) where two Hopf bifurcations are predicted with unstable operating point at wide range of compensation levels. For UPFC systems, it is worth to mention that the operating point of the system never loses stability at all realistic compensation degrees and therefore all power system bifurcations have been eliminated.

Government of Nepal has realized that wind energy could become a major source of alternative energy to solve energy crisis in the country as well as serve the purpose of energy mix. Various studies have identified several locations with potential for wind power generation in Nepal. The integration of wind power plant to the national grid, however, raises concerns regarding the power system stability. The voltage stability of the grid is a key issue, the effect on which increases with the increase in wind power penetration in the grid. This study performs voltage stability analysis due to high penetration of wind power in Integrated Nepalese Power System (INPS). Both steady state and dynamic stability study is performed using the power system simulation software DigSILENT/PowerFactory for different types of wind turbine generators.

The geomagnetic storm which is caused by the sun's activity is a global natural disaster. For the transformer neutral line connects to the earth directly, the geomagnetic storms can induce GIC in the loop formed by the earth and the transmission lines with long distance. The GIC has very big effect on the safe operation of electric power system when it flows in power grid. It includes the main damages on power system equipment caused by the GIC, the introduction of the GIC generation principle, main features, analysis algorithm and some control measures in this paper. Finally, point out that the GIC of the long distance transmission system and large-scale power grid should be paid more attention.

On account of that common subsynchronous resonance controllers cannot well adapt to the time-varying and nonlinear characteristics of power system, biogeography-based optimization (BBO) algorithm is introduced to design subsynchronous damping controller optimally based on the mechanism of suppressing SSO by static var compensator (SVC). The simulatied results of Jinjie plant indicate that the subsynchronous damping controller optimized by BBO algorithm can remarkably improve the damping of torsional modals and thus effectively depress the multimodal SSO, ensuring the safety and stability of units and power grid operation.

Injection of a new power system component into an existing power grid often cause change in the behaviour of the power grid to which it is injected. Therefore, forecasting possible unsafe condition(s) of the power grid using an efficient power study tool is essential; and, provision of necessary mitigation actions to ensure a reliable grid is important. This paper, therefore, presents evacuation study of a 400 MW power plant connecting to the 15 GW planned transmission network of the Transmission Company of Nigeria (TCN). The NEPLAN power system analytical software was used in the modelling and simulation of the electric power grid. In the research, load flow, short circuit, transient stability, and contingency analyses were performed on the case study. From the short circuit study, it is observed that if TCN network expansion program is fully implemented, the short circuit level will go beyond the existing switchgear ratings in major substations of the network. However, with the introduction of substation splitting at Omotoso and ongoing Ogijo substations, the short circuit level will be reduced by 15%; leading to improvement in the overall system stability. Keywords—Load flow, short circuit study, transient stability study, and contingency analysis
