Power system stability is correlated with system structure, disturbances and operating conditions, and power flows on transmission lines are closely related with those conditions. This paper proposes a methodology to identify correlative power flows for power system transient and small-signal stability prediction. In transient stability sense, the Critical Clearing Time is used to select some dominant contingencies, and Transient Stability Prediction index is proposed for the quantitative comparison. For small-signal stability discusses a methodology to identify crucial transmission lines for stability prediction by introducing a sensitivity factor based on eigenvalue sensitivity technique. On-line monitoring of the selected lines enables to predict system stability in real-time. Also, a procedure to make a priority list of monitored transmission lines is proposed. The procedure is applied to a test system, and it shows capabilities of the proposed method.

This paper reports a set of digital time-domain simulation studies conducted on 154 kV wound Potential Transformer(PT) int he 154 kV Gas Insulated Substation(GIS). The Electro-Magnetic Transient Program(EMTP) is used to develop the PT model and conduct the transient studies. The accuracy of the PT model is verified through comparison of the EMTP simulation results with those obtained from the field test results. The investigations shows that the developed model can accurately predict PT transient resonance, especially, the phenomenon of ferroresonance. The model is developed not only to determine impact of transients on PT response but also to design ferroresonance suppressor devices of PT. And it can also be used to predict PT transient response on power system monitoring and protection scheme.

The complexity of modern power systems often makes it impractical to model it in its entirety for electromagnetic transient studies. Therefore areas outside the immediate area of interest must be represented by some form of Frequency Dependent Network Equivalent (FDNE). The advantage of using z-domain fitting is that it can be directly implemented in a digital simulation program without any loss of accuracy. Fitting in the s-domain always requires "discretizing" a continuous system and the inherent approximations. This paper presents z-domain rational function formulation and demonstrates the use of it for the assessment of the transient response of the Lower South Island of New Zealand. Moreover by using a well publicized test system and providing complete information on the developed FDNE coefficients other researchers easily benchmark their work against this.

This paper proposes an algorithm for determining critical generator lists using accelerating power and synchronizing power coefficient (SPC), and critical generator group (CGG) from CGG candidates, which is a combination of critical generators. The accurate determination of CGG provides a more accurate energy margin while providing system operator with information of possible unstable generator group. Classical transient energy function (TEF) method selects the critical generators with big corrected kinetic energy of each generator at the moment of fault removal. However, the generator with small acceleration after fault, that is, the generator with small corrected kinetic energy, is also likely to belong to CGG if the generator has small synchronizing power. The proposed algorithm has been verified to be effective compared with the classical TEF method. We utilized the power system of Korean Electric Power Corporation(KEPCO) as a test system.

A program of steady-state and transient performance analysis for a 200kW-class small turboshaft engine with free power turbine was developed. An existing turbojet engine was used for the gas generator of the developed turboshaft engine, which was modified to satisfy performance requirements of this turboshaft engine. To verify the accuracy of steady-state performance program for this engine: the program was applied to the gas turbine test unit of the same type, and the analysis results were compared with experimental results. The developed transient performance analysis program using the CMF (Constant Mass Flow) method was utilized to analyze the cases of step increase and ramp increase of the fuel.

Dynamic characteristics of the bell-type structure including acoustic effects and transient dynamic problems were analyzed numerically. Natural frequencies, mode shapes and transient dynamic analysis used the finite element method with 3-D general shell element. Mode shapes and stress distributions of transient dynamic analysis were expressed by computer graphics. The method using this study was evaluated by comparision of theoretical results at reference papers(14), (15) and the experimental test using Fast Fourier Transform analyzer. Vibrational modes governing acoustic characteristics of the typical bell-type structure depended on the first flexural mode(4-0 mode) and the second flexural mode(6-0 mode). Asymmetric effects by Dangiwas, acoustic holes gave rise to beat frequencies, and the Dangjwa was found to be most effective. When impact load acted on the bell, stress concentration occured at the rim part of bell. It was found that the bell type structure should be designed thickly at the rim part in order to prevent impact load from stress concentration.

A simulation model for the transient behavior of CANDU U-tube steam generator(UTSG) has been developed for application to the simulation of operational transient behavior of CANDU nuclear power plant. For application to CANDU UTSG. tile design characteristics of CANDU UTSG such as Wolsong Units, feedwater inlet near the tube sheet. is approximated. For realistic prediction of thermal hydraulic behavior of and tube bundle region is divided into two separate control volumes, subcooled region and saturated region. and the variation of thermal hydraulic properties within a control volume is considered. Test results for typical CANDU operational transient case show reasonable transient behavior of steam generator and considered to be applicable to the simulation of overall plant.
