Rotor Angle Instability Prediction Using Post-Disturbance Voltage Trajectories
A technique for predicting rotor angle stability is described that allows accurate prediction of stability status six cycles after clearance of a fault. National Grid (contact details available) recognises rotor angle stability as an issue due to increased use of wind generation, remote nuclear stations and DC interties. Further research on stability issues is now being funded at the University of Manchester by National Grid (£245K) and the EPSRC (£235K, EP/F061242/1). The ideas are being exploited elsewhere, for example, at Washington State University (DOI: 10.1109/TPWRS.2012.2233764), in Hong Kong (DOI: 10.1109/DRPT.2011.5993876), and informing work in India (DOI: 10.1109/PEDES.2010.5712569) and Malaysia (DOI: 10.1109/TPWRS.2013.2247069).
