Power system stability is defined as the condition of a power system that enables it to remain in a state of operating equilibrium under normal operating conditions and to regain an acceptable state of equilibrium after being subjected to a finite disturbance. In the evaluation of stability, the focus is on the behavior of the power system when subjected to both large and small disturbances. Large disturbances are caused by severe changes in the power system, e.g. a short-circuit on a transmission line, loss of a large generator or load, loss of a tie-line between two systems. Small disturbances in the form of load changes take place continuously requiring the system to adjust to the changing conditions. The system should be capable of operating satisfactorily under these conditions and successfully supplying the maximum amount ofload. This dissertation deals with the use of Power System Stabilizers (PSS) to damp electromechanical oscillations arising from small disturbances. In particular, it focuses on three issues associated with the damping of these oscillations. These include ensuring robustness of PSS under changing operating conditions, maintaining or selecting the structure of the PSS and coordinating multiple PSS to ensure global power system robustness. 2014-07-31T11:00:34Z 2014-07-31T11:00:34Z 2003 Doctoral Thesis Doctoral PhD http://hdl.handle.net/11427/5261 eng application/pdf Department of Electrical Engineering Faculty of Engineering and the Built Environment University of Cape Town
