1 Introduction

In a multimachine power system, stabilisers are usually designed under a t>.pical operating condition. With the variations of system operating conditions, the effective- ness of the stabilisers changes. This problem of robust- ness of stabilisers to the variations of power system operating conditions has been known about for a long time. Great effort has been directed to the development of advanced stabilisers, such as adaptive, fuzzy logic and intelligent stabilisers, to increase stabiliser's robust- ness, which usually results in variable-structureiparam- eter stabilisers [l, 21.

However, the conventional method for ensuring a stabiliser's effectiveness is the careful selection of the typical operating condition under which stabilisers are designed. This method leads to fixed-parameter stabilis- ers and has been :;uccessful in single-machine power systems for power system stabilisers (PSS) design [3, 41. But, so far, further development of the method to the multimachine power system has not been investigated. A simple procedure of selecting the typical operating condition for stabiliser design in the multimachine power system is adopted sometimes by choosing the operating condition under which the power system has the worst oscillatioii damping. This selection is based on the hope that stabilisers would be able to handle the 0 IEE, 1998 IEE Pr0ceedinE.T online no 1998 1666 Paper received 9th June 1997 The author is with the Ur'iversity of Bath, Department of Electrical and Electronic Engineering, Claverton Down, Bath BA2 7AY, UK

cases when the power system has better oscillation damping, so that automatically they are robust to the changes of system operating conditions once they al-e designed at the operating condition with the worst oscillation damping.

With the recent development of flexible AC transmis- sion systems (FACTS), the FACTS-based stabilisers, such as static var compensator (SVC)-based, thyristor controlled series compensator (TCSC)-based supple- mentary damping controllers, have shown great poten- tial in improving power system oscillation stability [5-lo]. So, in a multimachine power system installed with different types of stabilisers (FACTS-based stabi- lisers and PSS) to damp multimode oscillations, the investigation into the selection of typical operating point is more complicated. The difference in the chang- ing pattern of the effectiveness of individual stabilisers to the variations of power system operating conditions would make it more difficult to choose a common typn- cal operating condition at which the co-ordination of multiple stabilisers can be achieved. Therefore, to obtain a co-ordinated design of multiple robust stabilis- ers in the multimachine power system, it is important to select proper typical operating conditions.

In this paper, the issue of the selection of operating conditions for stabiliser design in multimachine power systems is discussed, and a method is proposed to con- duct the selection to achieve robust design of multiple stabilisers. The co-ordination among different types of stabilisers in multimachine power is achieved by sequentially setting the phase of transfer function of every stabiliser and simultaneously tuning the gains of all stabilisers. The robustness of the stabilisers is ensured by the correct selection of the typical operating conditions for stabiliser design. In the paper, an exam- ple three-machine power system with two-mode oscilla- tions is presented, where a robust PSS and TCSC- based stabiliser are successfully designed by the method proposed.

If the transfer function of the kth stabiliser is Gk(s) and the feedback signal is Y k , that is:

where nu,< is Au, or Au,,. Appendix 7.1 shows that any yk can be expressed as:

If it is assumed that there are L oscillation modes in the n-machine power system, which need to be damped

by M I + M2 stabilisers, to the ith oscillation mode A , the damping torque provided by the kth stabiliser to the electromechanical oscillation loop of the j th genera- tor is:

A T D k a 3 = Re[Fkj(X,)Ykj ( X i ) G k ( A i ) ] A u j

j = 1 , 2 , ..., n (5) where Fkj(Ai) is thejth element of Fic(Ai) in eqn. 2.

Eqn. 5 indicates that, in the multimachine power sys- tem, the damping torque is contributed by a stabiliser to every machine through a single forward channel:

Fi,] (&)Ti,] (Ai) H k j i y k j (6) So, there are a total of 72 channels through which the stabiliser provides all machines the damping torque.

However, in the multimachine power system, the sources of the oscillations associated with different oscillation modes may be different. If a stabiliser pro- vides a machine with a certain amount of damping torque which results in little improvement of the damp- ing of an oscillation mode, we can believe that, to the oscillation mode, the machine is not the ‘source’. Based on this understanding, to the oscillation mode Ai = -ti k j q , the damping of which is mainly characterised by [i, we can define the sensitivity of 5, to an addition of the damping torque on the j th machine DGqAq as S,:

Page 3: Selection of operating conditions for the co-ordinated setting of robust fixed-parameter stabilisers

From Fig. 2 it can be seen that a stabiliser in the n- machine power sy8jtem provides damping to an oscilla- tion mode through two groups of n channels. The first group of n channels are the forward paths through which the stabiliser supplies damping torque to every machine in the power system. The second group of n channels are the connections between the damping of the oscillation mDde and the addition of damping torque on machines, through which the damping torque is converted into the damping of the oscillation mode. Therefore, this model presents a full and clear picture about how a FACTS-based stabiliser or a PSS distributes and contributes damping to oscillation modes in the multimachine power system.

Selection of a typical operation condition for

Assume that the set of all known operating conditions of the n-machine power system is Qo. For the kth stabi- liser and the ith oscillation mode, at all operating con- ditions pcc(m) E no, we can calculate the weights attached to each channel in the multichannel model of Fig. 2, i!+k = SjiH,,,, . j = 1, 2, ..., n , and then obtain a total weight:

n n

j = 1 j=1

(11) Wi/< measures the damping provided by the kth stabi- liser to the ith oscillation mode. So, it presents an index to estimate the effectiveness of the kth stabiliser to sup- press the oscillation associated with the ith oscillation mode in the power system. If we have:

K k ( 1 7 1 . t ) = r~lin[wzk(17~)] p & k ( m ) E 0 0 (12) m

we know that the stabiliser is least effective in damping the oscillation at the operating condition pil,(ml) E Qo. So, if we choose ~ ~ / < ( m ~ ) E Qo as the typical operating condition to design the stabiliser, an effective design of the stabiliser at pL,:(mr) E no can ensure the effective- ness of the stabiliser at all operating conditions pjlc(wz) E no due to eqn. 12. Therefore, by selecting the typical operating condition according to eqn. 12, the robust- ness of the stabiliser to the variations of power system operating conditions is achieved.

This selection m,zy result in different typical operat- ing condition for different stabilisers and oscillation modes. So, it may be difficult or impossible to select a common typical operating condition at which all stabi- lisers can be designed simultaneously in co-ordination. On the other hand, if they are designed in co-ordina- tion at a common operating condition simultaneously, their robustness may not be ensured, owing to the dif- ference in the changing pattern of their effectiveness to the variations of system operating conditions. Such an example is given in this paper.

However, if stabilisers are designed one by one in a sequence, the problem of 'eigenvalue drift' [ 121 cannot be avoided. Therefxe, to achieve the co-ordinated set- ting of multiple fi xed-parameter robust stabilisers, a new method is proposed as follows.

3. I Sequential setting of the phase of the stabilisers For simplicity of expression, we use the conventional

IEE Proc.-Genei.. Trunsm l) istrih, VoI 145, No. 2, Murclz 1998

form of the transfer function of stabilisers:

= K k T k ( S ) (13) It is assumed that the kth stabiliser is designed mainly to improve the damping of the ith oscillation mode in the power system Ai = -ti k.jc0,. Without loss of gener- ality, we assume that, at the typical operating condition of the kth stabiliser selected by use of eqn. 12, S,, 2 Si2 2 ... 2 sin.

Then a compensation angle is chosen to satisfy: 90" > q5k - $9k3 > 0" j = 1 , 2 , ...,n (14)

If such a compensation angle cannot be obtained, the selection of the compensation angle @,' can be made among the first (n - 1) machines to satisfy:

This procedure can be continued until such a compen- sation angle is obtained. Then T,(s) is set to have a phase angle -@,<, that is, TIt(Ai) = TkL - 4k. So, from eqn. 10, the damping contribution by the kth stabiliser to A; can be expressed as:

90" > (bk - $9kj > 0" j = 1 , 2 , ...,?'- 1 (1,s)

n

a t z ( k ) = ~ s ~ ~ H ~ ~ T ~ c o s ~ ~ ~ A I x - ~ j = 1 , 2 , ...; n

(16) j=1

where Plcj = + qltj. The procedure above in selecting the compensation angle ensures that 0 > f i k j > -90" is tenable to the machines which are more sensitive to A, so that they are provided with a positive synchronising torque. Eqn. 16 shows the damping contribution to the ith oscillation mode by the kth stabiliser.

3.2 Simultaneous gain tuning From eqns. 8 and 16 we have:

M .M N

k=l iC=l3=1

(1'7) Eqn. 17 demonstrates the total damping iinprovemeiit by M stabilisers. It also indicates that, after every TL(s) is set, the damping improvement of the oscillation mode is determined by tuning stabilisers' gains, AKk = Kl< *

Assume that the target damping of the oscillation modes by the co-ordinated design of A4 stabilisers is -5,*, i = 1, 2, ..., L. An objective function can be formed to be:

L

J(W = sz[rdw - <,*I2 (18) 2 x 1

where K is the gain vector of the stabilisers K = [K, K2 ... KMIT. To find the solution of the objective function, the steepest descent algorithm is used here:

K ( n + 1) = K ( n ) - st x B J [ K ( n ) ] (19) where st is the single-dimension optimal searchirig length and VJ[K(n)] is the gradient of J(K> with respect to K as:

Page 4: Selection of operating conditions for the co-ordinated setting of robust fixed-parameter stabilisers

By using eqns. 18 and 19, the gains of M stabilisers are tuned simultaneously, which will assign L oscillation modes accurately to the positions on complex plane with target damping.

This simultaneous tuning of all gains of stabilisers is conducted at the typical operating condition of each stabiliser. At the typical operating condition of the first stabiliser, the initial values of the gains are simply taken to be zero. From the typical operating condition of the second stabiliser onwards, the gain values set by the previous tuning are taken to be the initial values to start the current tuning. Also in the tuning process, the following constraint is checked:

I&(WJ L IC1 2 = 1 , 2 , ..., L (21) If eqn. 21 is satisfied for any A,, 4 = 1, 2, ..., L, which is supposed to be damped by the kth stabiliser, we set Qe = 0 and d5e(K)ldKk = 0 in eqn. 19. This arrange- ment frees the eigenvalue drift towards the 'good' direction, the left half complex plane over the target value. Therefore, an unique final solution of gain tun- ing can be obtained.

Fig.3 Example power system

4 Example

An example three-machine power system is shown in Fig. 3, the parameters of which are given in the Appen- dix (Section 7.2). The active power transferred along the main transmission line from bus 4 to 3 varies from P4, = 0.1p.u. to P43 = 0.9p.u. The example power sys- tem has one local mode and one interarea mode poorly damped, as shown in the third column of Table 1. It is decided that a PSS is to be installed on machine 3 to damp the local oscillation mode, and a TCSC-based stabiliser is to be installed on line 3-4 to improve the damping of the interarea. The locally available active power delivered along the transmission line is taken as the feedback signal of the stabilisers. For the selection of installing locations and feedback signals of stabilis- ers, the method proposed in [9] is used.

Table 1

From Table 1 it can be seen that, in this case of two- mode oscillations, the damping of two oscillation modes changes with system operating conditions in dif- ferent pattern. There is no common operating condi- tion at which two modes are of worst damping. Therefore, even the simple procedure to select the typi- cal operating condition according to the damping of the oscillation modes cannot be used. Here, for demon- stration, a compromised operating condition for both oscillation modes p3 is selected to be the typical operat- ing condition. At p3 two stabilisers are designed in co- ordination by use of eigenvalue assignment, which results in PSS:

K1 = 0.302p.u., T11 = 0 . 7 ~ , Ti2 = 0 . 6 7 ~ , Ti3 Ti4 = 0 .32~ , Ti = 0 . 0 2 5 ~ , T,, = 3.0s.

They move two modes to: A,ocal = -0.8574 kj8.5740, A,,,, = -0.4571 k j4.5710, both of which are of good damping 0. I . However, the results of eigenvalue calcu- lation presented in the last column of Table 1 show that this design at p3 does not provide robust stabilisers to the variations of power system operating conditions.

Then the method proposed in the paper is used for the co-ordinated design of robust stabilisers.

stabiliser are tuned jointly by the algorithm of eqns. 18-21. The target damping for two oscillation modes is 0.1. The solution is Kpss = 1.28p.u., Krcsc = 2.26p.u., which moves two oscillation modes to:

Kpss = 1.28p.u., KTcSc = 12.Op.u. The last column in Table 2 presents the results of the

robustness of the stabilisers to the variations of system operating conditioris. Both stabilisers are robust.

Fig. 4 shows the results of nonlinear simulation. The oscillations are triggered by a three-phase short circuit occurring at bus 3 in the example power system at 0.1 s of the simulation, and is cleared after 120ms. They confirm all the reijults obtained above based on the eigenvalue calculation.

7.1 Derivation of eqn. 4 For simplicity, only the case for the FACTS-based sta- bilisers is presented and subscript k is omitted.

From last two equations in eqn. 1 we can obtain: AE; =

- [(h; + S T D ) + E X ( S ) K p [ h 7 4 + EX(S)KS]A(T

- [ ( K 3 + S T D ) + E X ( s ) l G j - l [ k , + EX(S)k, ,]AU,f

= E(s)A6 + f ( s )Au ,

a = 1. 2, ..., ri i # j 115

Page 6: Selection of operating conditions for the co-ordinated setting of robust fixed-parameter stabilisers

and choose a pair A+, Aw,, the system model of eqn. 1 can be expressed as:

Thus we can obtain:

Substituting eqn. 24 into the last equation in eqns. 23 and 1 and then into the first equation in eqn. 23 we can obtain:

AE; = h 3 ~ ( ~ ) A 6 , + ~ ~ J ( s ) A z I ~

A E F D = & J ( S ) A ~ ~ + ~ G J ( S ) ~ U S

So, if the feedback signal of the FACTS-based stabi- liser is:

(25) au, = hJ7(S )AhJ
