Design of power system stabilizer for damping power system oscillations

Abstract

The problem of the poorly damped low-frequency (electro-mechanical) oscillations of power systems has been a matter of concern to power engineers for a long time, because they limit power transfers in transmission lines and induce stress in the mechanical shaft of machines. Due to small disturbances, power systems experience these poorly damped low-frequency oscillations. The dynamic stability of power systems are also affected by these low frequency oscillations. With proper design of Power System Stabilizer (PSS), these oscillations can be well damped and hence the system stability is enhanced. The basic functions of the PSS is to add a stabilizing signal that compensates the oscillations of the voltage error of the excitation system during the dynamic/transient state, and to provide a damping component when it’s on phase with rotor speed deviation of machine. Studies have shown that PSS are designed to provide additional damping torque, for different operation point normal load, heavy load and leading to improve power system dynamic stability.
