Research and Improvement of Electromechanical Transient Performance of Power System Based on SIMULINK

Abstract

The research on electromechanical transient stability of power systems is of great significance. Analyzing the parameters of the simulation system and its improved system with typical short-circuit faults, this paper studies the transient stability of power systems and its improvement. Firstly, based on the SIMULINK of MATLAB, a double-loop simulation with the single-machine-infinite-bus system is built. The simulation experiments of the system under the circumstances of three-phase short circuit and single-phase grounding short circuit faults are then carried out to analyze the parameters such as limit cutting time and voltage. Besides, this paper explores how the controllable series capacitor compensation device and reducing mechanical power output by prime mover improve the transient stability of the system. Experiments show that the stability after fault is under conditions where the fault is removed before the critical clearing time, which can increase the threshold to gain more response time for relay protection devices. Thus, the value of researching and improving system transient stability is proved.
