This paper resents an algorithm for the optimal parameter selection of a power system stabilizer in a single machine-infinite bus system through the external equivalent transmission line. This method is one of the classical techniques by changing the PSS gain to allocate properly pole-zero positions. All the PSS parameters are obtained by solving a set of algebraic equations for the system constants depend on a variety of machine loadings and system external impedances, the natural oscillation modes, and the damping characteristics. And this algorithm was written in a simple software program using MATLAB.

Tidal power is one of new and renewable energy sources. The seawater is stored inside a tidal embankment built at the mouth of a river or bay, where tides ebb and flow. The water turbine-generators produce power by exploiting the gap in the water level between the water outside and inside the embankment. Tidal power plant is a large plant that is installed on the sea. And then, the facility's operations and a separate control system for monitoring and maintenance is required. However, this plant predictive control of building systems and technologies have been avoided the transfer of technology from advanced global companies. Accordingly, the control system for core technology development and localization is urgently needed. This paper presents modeling and simulation using by PSS/E about generator, governor, exciter, and power system stabilizer for control system in Sihwa tidal power plant to improve the efficiency and develope of core technology. And the dynamic characteristics of governor and exciter were analyzed.

본 논문에서는 송전 계통사고 시 부하차단 이후 우리나라 2005년 계통에 대하여 전력계통안정화장치(Power System Stabilizer : PSS)의 영향 및 효과를 캐나다 Powertech Labs Inc.,의 TSAT(Transient Security Assesment Tool)을 이용하여 분석하였다. 모의를 위한 송전선로의 사고는 765kV 선로와 345kV 선로를 대상으로 하였으며, 8개의 모선에 대하여 상정 사고를 발생시켜 선로 차단 및 재투입을 고려하여 실시하였다. 본 연구에서 TSAT에 대한 기존의 전통적인 형태인 IEEEST type과 보다 정교한 이중구조를 가진 PSS2A type의 두 가지를 검토한 결과를 살펴보면 절반의 경우가 발전단 인근 지점의 사고시 발전기가 안정을 회복하지 못하고 탈조하는 것으로 나타났다. 그 외의 지역의 모선 단의 PSS투입효과는 비교적 댐핑 효과가 있는 것으로 나타났다.

In this paper, we design a Power System Stabilizer for a Thyristor Controlled Series Capacitor(TCSC-PSS) for enhancement of power system stability. Here, PSS parameters are optimized using Genetic Algorithm(GA) in order to maintain optimal operation of TCSC. Simulation results show that the proposed control technique is superior to a conventional PSS in dynamic responses over the wide range of operating conditions and is convinced robustness and reliableness in view of structure.

In this paper, design problem of QFT-PSS using Genetic Algorithm(GA) is investigated for power systems with parameter variation and disturbance uncertainties. A robust controller for uncertain power systems can be designed automatically such that the cost of feedback is minimized and all robust stability and performance specifications are satisfied. It is shown that the proposed design method not only automates loop shaping but also improves design quality and improves the quality with a reduced order controller. The robustness of the proposed controller has been investigated on a single machine infinite bus model. The results are shown that the proposed QFT-PSS using GA is more robust tan conventional PSS.

Response speed of generator/control system kas increased with the aid of the development of power electronics. Even though it is desirable to enhance response speed for the control system(AVR/Gov) of generator itself, in case a certain generator/control system with high response excitation system is connected with bulk power system, terminal voltage and active power of some generators can oscillate with adjoining generators or near area when even a little of disturbance take place. PSS(Power System Stabilizer) is used to damp rotor swing by adding the supplementary signal in phase with speed. As the stable AVR response is very important before PSS is installed, modeling and analysis of generator/control system was performed. Next we have analysed PSS response of Hanlim's gas turbine by transmission line open/close test.

In this paper a robust method is presented for the combined design of STATCOM and Power System Stabilizer (PSS) controllers in order to enhance the damping of the low frequency oscillations in power systems. The combined design problems among PSS and STATCOM internal ac and dc voltage controllers has been taken into consideration. The equations that describe the proposed system have been linearized and a Fuzzy Logic Controller (FLC) has been designed for the PSS. Then, the Particle Swarm Optimization technique (PSO) which has a strong ability to find the most optimistic results is employed to search for the optimal STATCOM controller parameters. The proposed controllers are evaluated on a single machine infinite bus power system with the STATCOM installed in the midpoint of the transmission line. The results analysis reveals that the combined design has an excellent capability in damping a power system's low frequency oscillations, and that it greatly enhances the dynamic stability of power systems. Moreover, a system performance analysis under different operating conditions and some performance indices studies show the effectiveness of the combined design.

The current study is dedicated to design a novel coordinated controller to effectively increase power system rotor angle stability. In doing so, the coordinated design of an AVR (automatic voltage regulator), PSS2B, and TCSC (thyristor controlled series capacitor)-based POD (power oscillation damping) controller is proposed. Although the recently employed coordination between a CPSS (conventional power system stabilizer) and a TCSC-based POD controller has been shown to improve power system damping characteristics, neglecting the negative impact of existing high-gain AVR on the damping torque by considering its parameters as given values, may reduce the effectiveness of a CPSS-POD controller. Thus, using a technologically viable stabilizer such as PSS2B rather than the CPSS in a coordinated scheme with an AVR and POD controller can constitute a well-established design with a structure that as a high potential to significantly improve the rotor angle stability. The design procedure is formulated as an optimization problem in which the ITSE (integral of time multiplied squared error) performance index as an objective function is minimized by employing an IPSO (improved particle swarm optimization) algorithm to tune adjustable parameters. The robustness of the coordinated designs is guaranteed by concurrently considering some operating conditions in the optimization process. To evaluate the performance of the proposed controllers, eigenvalue analysis and time domain simulations were performed for different operating points and perturbations simulated on 2A4M (two-area four-machine) power systems in MATLAB/Simulink. The results reveal that surpassing improvement in damping of oscillations is achieved in comparison with the CPSS-TCSC coordination.
