A voltage stability assessment consists of the contingency screening, voltage stability analysis, and counter measures. A widely used index for the voltage stability assessment of power system is the reactive power margin. It shows some factors of voluntariness as following the status of power system and load levels for the target analyzing area. Therefore, it has a demerit that the absolute amounts of reactive power margin is not to be applied by the quantized margin criterion. This paper selects a vulnerable area by assigning the voltage instability for the particular contingency for the selection of vulnerable area in the respect of the investigation of reactive power margin or VQVI as an index of V-Q margin sensitivity in order to overcome the demerit. This will be able to grasp the V-Q margin sensitivity for the target analyzing area by presenting the ratio of power margin between the margin before and after contingency as following the calculation of reactive power margin. The presented method is applied to the voltage stability assessment for the Metropolitan area of 2003 KEPCO summer peak system.

The most widely used index for the vulnerable area investigation has been the reactive power margin or sensitivity analysis. But we can only obtain the results of these analyses if the results of load flow are convergent in severe contingencies. Otherwise these methods are not adoptable. This paper presents a good index for overcoming severe contingencies, though the power flow equation is unsolvable using the branch parameter continuation power flow. In simulation, the Korea Electric Power Corporation (KEPCO) Systems are applied.

전력계통운영의 목표는 전력시스템의 안정성과 신뢰성을 유지하여 원활한 전력을 공급하는 것이다. 안정적인 전력 공급을 위하여 무효전력과 모선 전압에 대한 고려를 해야 하는데, 모선의 전압을 일정 범위 이내로 유지하기 위하여 커패시터 뱅크를 비롯한 다양한 방안이 사용되고 있다. 본 논문에서는 계통 안정도와 전력공급 신뢰도를 상시키기 위한 하이브리드 타입의 커패시터 뱅크 설계 과정에 대하여 기술하였다. 설계 과정에는 커패시터 뱅크의 용량 산정, 리액터 타입 결정 및 리액터 용량 산정과정이 포함된다. 기존의 커패시터 뱅크의 설계과정과 같이 정상상태 Q-V 해석이나 상정사고 분석과 같은 방법을 통하여 무효전력 마진을 계산하여 저전압이 발생하는 모선에 무효전력 보상량을 산정한다. 그리고 고조파 실측을 통해 산출된 개별 고조파의 성분 크기를 기반으로 직렬 리액터의 크기를 산정하는 방식으로 설계과정을 제안하였다. 논문에서는 제안된 방법을 통하여 고조파의 크기가 감소함을 증명하였으며, 특히 5차와 7차 고조파의 저감에 효율적임을 보여주었다.

It is an important issue to electric power system operations that it can reliably supply large-capacity power to consumption area as due to increasing power demand growth. For this purpose, The FACTS equipment based on Power IT technology with the existing mechanical compensators has been applied to power system. Therefore we suggest on this paper that a plan for coordination control of multiple power compensation equipment in order to increase the utilization of each facility and secure operation margin capacity. As the result of simulation, it is possible to cope actively with a suddenly changed power system. This helps greatly for the voltage stability and supply reliability in a suddenly changed power system.

This paper presents an integrated stability analysis by the direct energy function method based on Equivalent Mechanical Model(EMM) which reflects the system behavior related to both angle and voltage stabilities. Actually, angle and voltage stability are intimately related in power system, so complete decoupling of these stability analysis is not possible in general, particularly in stressed power systems. In this paper, it is shown that a identical energy function can be used for angle and voltage stability analysis. The proposed energy function reflects the line resistances and reactive powers under the constraints of the same R/X ratio. The energy margin between UEP and SEP presents a good collapse proximity index in both types of stability analysis.

Many methods to examine the vulnerable areal for the contingencies in the power system. The most widely used index for the vulnerable area investigation has been the reactive power margin or sensitivity analysis. But we can get the results of these analyses if only the results of load flow are convergent in severe contingencies, otherwise these methods are not adoptable. We can present a good index for overcoming severe contingencies, if we can get the vulnerable areas by bus sensitivity in severe contingencies, though the power flow equation is unsolvable. This paper simulates unsolvable severe contingencies by using branch parameter continuation power flow. We can compute the vulnerable areas in unsolvable severe contingencies by normal vector at a nose point of a $\nu-V$ curve. Presented method is checked the input reactive power of the vulnerable areas in KEPCO system.

This paper proposes an analysis method based on the magnitude-phase dynamic theory for isolated power systems with static synchronous compensators (STATCOMs). The stability margin of an isolated power system is greatly reduced when a load is connected, due to the disadvantageous features of the self-excited induction generators (SEIGs). To analyze the control process for system stability and to grasp the dynamic characteristics in different timescales, the relationships between the active/reactive components and the phase/magnitude of the STATCOM output voltage are derived in the natural reference frame based on the magnitude/phase dynamic theory. Then STATCOM equivalent mechanical models in both the voltage time scale and the current time scale are built. The proportional coefficients and the integral coefficients of the control process are converted into damping coefficients, inertia coefficients and stiffness coefficients so that analyzing its controls, dynamic response characteristics as well as impacts on the system operations are easier. The effectiveness of the proposed analysis method is verified by simulation and experimental results.
