Because of the robust nonlinear characteristics appearing in today's modern power system, a strong interaction exists between the angle stability and the voltage stability, which were conventionally studied insularly. However, as the power system is a complex unified system, angle instability always happens in conjunction with voltage instability. The authors propose a novel method to analyze this type of stability problem. In the proposed method, the theory of normal forms of vector fields is utilized to treat the auxiliary dynamic system. By use of this method, the interaction between response modes caused by the nonlinearity of the power system can be analyzed. Consequently, the eigenvalue analysis method is extended to cope with performance analysis of the power system with heavy nonlinearity. The effectiveness of the proposed methodology is verified on a 3-bus power system.

The power system stabilizer(PSS) is important for the suppression of low-frequency oscillation and the improvement of system stability. In this paper, An Adaptive Neurofuzzy-based Power System Stabilizer(ANF PSS) is proposed as the new PSS type. The proposed PSS employs a multi-layer adaptive network. The network is trained directly from the input and the output of the generating unit. The algorithm combines the advantages of the Artificial Neural Network(ANN) and Fuzzy Logic Control(FLC) schemes. Studies show that the proposed ANF PSS can provide good damping of the power system over the wide range of operating conditions and improve the dynamic performance of the system.

It is vital to output the required electrical power following various task requirements when the space reactor power supply is operating in orbit. The dynamic performance of the closed Brayton cycle thermoelectric conversion system is initially studied and analyzed. Based on this, a load tracking power regulation method is developed for the liquid metal cooled space reactor power system, which takes into account the inlet temperature of the lithium on the hot side of the intermediate heat exchanger, the filling quantity of helium and xenon, and the input amount of the heat pipe radiator module. After comparing several methods, a power regulation method with fast response speed and strong system stability is obtained. Under various changes in power output, the dynamic response characteristics of the ultra-small liquid metal lithium-cooled space reactor concept scheme are analyzed. The transient operation process of 70 % load power shows that core power variation is within 30 % and core coolant temperature can operate at the set safety temperature. The second loop's helium-xenon working fluid has a 65K temperature change range and a 25 % filling quantity. The lithium at the radiator loop outlet changes by less than ±7 K, and the system's main key parameters change as expected, indicating safety. The core system uses less power during 30 % load power transient operation. According to the response characteristics of various system parameters, under low power operation conditions, the lithium working fluid temperature of the radiator circuit and the high-temperature heat pipe operation temperature are limiting conditions for low-power operation, and multiple system parameters must be coordinated to ensure that the radiator system does not condense the lithium working fluid and the heat pipe.

The optimal control theory is applied to the design of a digital control system for a nuclear reactor. A linear dynamic model obtained at 85% of rated power and a quadratic performance index are used. A minimal order observer used in cascade with the feedback controller is suggested as a state estimator. The total reactor power control is studied in the range of 80% to 100% of rated power, with the steady state and load-following control. The control algorithm considered is suitable for implementation in direct digital control.

Maximizing the operating time by reducing the power consumption is important factor to operate sensor network under water networks. For efficient power consumption, dynamic voltage scaling method is available. This method operates low frequency when there is no workload. In case of abundant workload, high frequency operation completes hard work within short time, reducing power consumption. For this reason, complex cryptography should be computed in high frequency. In this paper, we apply dynamic voltage scaling method to cryptography and show performance evaluation. With this result, we can reduce power consumption for cryptography in under water communication.

This paper presents the operation of Fuel Cell Distributed Generation(FCDG) systems in distribution systems. Hence, modeling, controller design, and simulation study of a Solid Oxide Fuel Cell(SOFC) distributed generation(DG) system are investigated.

Then, suitable control architecture based on fuzzy logic and the neural network for the overall system is presented in order to activate power control and power quality improvement. A MATLAB/Simulink simulation model is developed for the SOFC DG system by combining the individual component models and the controllers designed for the power conditioning units. Simulation results are given to show the overall system performance including active power control and voltage regulation capability of the distribution system.
