본 연구는 시각 동기 위상 측정 정보를 이용하여 전력계통에 나타나는 여러 가지 동요 현상을 검출하기 위한 기초 연구로써, 시계열 데이터 분석 분야로 분류된다. 제시한 방법은 비선형 동특성에 해석 기반으로 접근하여 전력계통에 나타날 수 있는 여러 동요 현상을 범용적으로 검출해 낼 수 있다. 비선형 동요 현상의 신호적 패턴을 수학적으로 기본 순시치 파형으로부터 피크치 샘플링을 통해 전개하여 계통 요소간 간섭으로 인한 원하지 않는 진동 모드를 검출하고자 한다. 계통의 변화로 진동 모드가 나타날 때, 2차원 평면에 실효치로 환산한 시계열 전압 데이터와 선형화된 플로퀘트 상수(Floquet multiplier)를 맵핑하여 도시하고, 정상상태 지점으로부터 거리를 계산하여 최대 리아프노프 지수 계산을 통해 계통이 불안정하게 되는 시간을 시계열 데이터 분석으로 추정하는 것이 본 방법의 핵심이다. 이러한 접근으로 제시한 비선형 동요 검출 알고리즘을 적용하여 디지털 필터 적용 또는 주파수 영역 해석과 같은 오프라인 Study와 달리 온라인으로 신속하게 계통의 현재 상태를 알 수 있게 된다.

This paper presents a methodology for effective control of fuel cell devices connected to the electric utility distribution network. A controller is designed for a fuel cell power plant to assist the conventional generators to damp out oscillations, which is possible by utilizing the fast response characteristic of fuel cells. Computer model of the controller is proposed and its effectiveness is proved by a sample test. Fuel cell devices can be used to improve power system stability when these are connected to a distribution system.

This paper presents a new approach to the design of a rough fuzzy controller for the control loop of the SVC (static VAR system) in a two area power system for stability enhancement with particular emphasis on providing effective damping for oscillatory instabilities. The performances of the rough fuzzy and the conventional fuzzy controller are compared with that of the conventional PI controller for a variety of transient disturbances, highlighting the effectiveness of the rough fuzzy controller in damping the inter-area oscillations. The effect of the rough fuzzy controller in improving the CCT (critical clearing time) of the two area system is elaborated in this paper as well.

The supplementalγ controls of the FACTS are designed for the enhancement of the small signal stability in power system. The designed supplementary controllers using residue are applied to SVC or TCSC for the improving the damping ratio of dominant eigen value in the New England and 39 bus test system as the sample system. The results show the validation of the supplementary controller for the enhancement of the eigenvalues which have the low frequency oscillations with poor damping ratio as the unstable problem in the sample system.

This paper deals with the commutation failures of HVCD system. Commutation failures are caused by AC voltage distrotions at inverter side and cause the HVDC system oscillations. In this paper, in order to know a correct incidence and onset of the failures, theoretical analysis, the simulation and the investigation at actual system are carried out and the dynamic performace simulations are performed by PSCAD/EMTDC. Finally, the condition that the failure could be generated and how to reduce the failures are analyzed.

The mechanical system of a drive can often be modeled as a two- or three-mass-system. The load is coupled to the driving motor by a shaft able to perform torsion oscillations. For the automatic tuning of the control, it is necessary to know the mathematical description of the system and the corresponding parameters. As the manpower and setup-time necessary during the commissioning of electrical drives are major cost factors, the development of self-operating identification strategies is a task worth pursuing. This paper presents an identification method which can be utilized for the assisted commissioning of electrical drives. The shaft assembly can be approximated as a two-mass non-rigid mechanical system with four parameters that have to be identified. The mathematical background for an identification procedure is developed and some important implementation issues are addressed. In order to avoid the excitation of the system with its natural resonance frequency, the frequency response can be obtained by exciting the system with a Pseudo Random Binary Signal (PRBS) and using the cross correlation function (CCF) and the auto correlation function (ACF). The reference torque is used as stimulation and the response is the mechanical speed. To determine the parameters, especially in advanced control schemes, a numerical algorithm with excellent convergence characteristics has also been used that can be implemented together with the proposed measurement procedure in order to assist the drive commissioning or to achieve an automatic setting of the control parameters. Simulations and experiments validate the efficiency and reliability of the identification procedure.

A small washer powered directly and solely by thermal radiation was constructed and tested to explore the feasibility of using solar energy or other types of thermal radiation for washing and cleaning. In principle, TA (ThermoAcoustic) washers have the benefits of simpler design and operation and fewer energy conversion processes, thus should be more energy efficient and cost less than electric washing/cleaning systems. The prototype TA converter we constructed could sustain itself with consistent fluid oscillations for more than 20 minutes when powered by either concentrated solar radiation or an IR (infrared) heater. The frequencies of water oscillations in the wash chamber ranged from 2.6 to 3.6 Hz. The overall conversion efficiency was lower than the typical efficiencies of TA engines. Change in water temperature had little effect on the oscillatory flow in the TA washer due to its low efficiency. On the other hand higher water temperatures enhanced grease removal considerably in our tests. Methods for measuring the overall conversion efficiency, frictional loss, and grease removal of the TA washing system we designed were developed and discussed.

For now, there are some low frequency oscillations in the power system which feature low frequency oscillation with positive damping and cannot be explained by traditional low frequency oscillation mechanisms. Concerning this issue, the dynamic damping effect is put forward on the basis of the power-angle curve and the study of damping torque in this article. That is, in the process of oscillation, damping will dynamically change and will be less than that of the stable operating point especially when the angle of the stable operating point and the oscillation amplitude are large. In a situation with weak damping, the damping may turn negative when the oscillation amplitude increases to a certain extent, which may result in an amplitude-increasing oscillation. Finally, the simulation of the two-machine two-area system verifies the arguments in this paper which may provide new ideas for the analysis and control of some unclear low frequency phenomena.

In this paper, a new design method of H$H_\infty$-Qn PSS using genetic algorithm(GA) is proposed to efficiently damp low frequency oscillations despite the uncertainties and various disturbances of power systems. The selection method of evaluation function is proposed for selecting the robust PSS parameters. All QFT boundaries are satisfied automatically and H$H_\infty$-norm is minimized simultaneously without trial and error procedure. The eigenvalues and the damping ratio of dominant oscillation mode are investigated to evaluate performance of designed controller for one machine infinite bus system. A disturbance attenuation performance is investigated through singular value bode diagram of the system. Dynamic characteristics are considered to verify robustness of the proposed PSS by means of nonlinear simulations under various disturbances for various operating conditions. The results show that the proposed PSS is more robust than conventional PSS.

Modular multilevel converter (MMC)-based high-voltage direct current (HVDC) presents attractive technical advantages and contributes to enhanced system operation and reduced oscillation damping in dynamic MMC-HVDC systems. We propose an advanced small-signal multi-terminal MMC-HVDC based on dynamic phasors and state space for power system stability analysis to enhance computational accuracy and reduce simulation time. In accordance with active and passive network control strategies for multi-terminal MMC-HVDC, the matchable small-signal stability models containing high harmonics and dynamics of internal variables are conducted, and a related theoretical derivation is carried out. The proposed advanced small-signal model is then compared with electromagnetic-transient and traditional small-signal state-space models by adopting a typical multi-terminal MMC-HVDC network with offshore wind generation. Simulation indicates that the advanced small-signal model can successfully follow the electromechanical transient response with small errors and can predict the damped oscillations. The validity and applicability of the proposed model are effectively confirmed.
