Transient stability limit: depends on the type of disturbance,
location and magnitude of disturbance, clearing time and the
method of clearing.
After every disturbance, the machines must adjust the relative
angles of their rotors to meet the condition of the power transfer
involved. The problem is mechanical as well as electrical.

equation that relates the angular momentum

Swing curve, plot of power angle δ vs time t, can be obtained by
solving the swing equation. Fig. (a) stable system and (b) unstable

Swing curves are used to determine the stability of the system. If
the rotor angle δ reaches a maximum and then decreases, then it
shows that the system has transient stability (figure-a). On the
other hand if the rotor angle δ increases indefinitely, then it shows
that the system is unstable(figure-b).
We are going to study the stability of a generator connected to
infinite bus and a synchronous motor drawing power from
infinite bus.
We know that the complex power is given by:
S=P + j Q = V. I* or P – j Q = V*.I
Thus real power P = Re {V*I}
Case 1-: Consider a generator connected to infinite bus.
Note A system having a constant voltage and constant frequency regardless of the load is called
an Infinite Busbar system. Thus, an infinite bus has a large power system and does not affect its
voltage and frequency. They both remain constant.
Dr Audih 11
Where:
V - is the voltage at infinite bus. V = V 0 o
E - is internal voltage of generator. E E o
X - is the total reactance
The internal voltage E leads V by angle δ, Thus:

Further Considerations of the Swing Equation
The mega-voltampere (MVA) base Smach ,which is introduced
by the definition of H, with many synchronous machines only
one MVA base common to all parts of the system can be
chosen. In this case:
S m ach
H system H m ach .
S
system
For a large system with many machines over a wide area it
is desirable to minimize the number of swing equations to be
solved. In such cases the machines within the plant can be
combined into a single equivalent machine , and only one
swing equation must be written for them.
Consider a power plant with two generators connected to the
same bus which is electrically remote from the network
disturbances. Dr Audih 28

the second is1200MVA with H2=3MJ/MVA. The two machine operate in

Equal area criterion( alternative method for stability)
The accelerating power in swing equation will have sine term.
Pe Pmax .sin
Therefore the swing equation is non-linear differential equation .
For two machine system and one machine connected to infinite
bus bar, it is possible to say whether a system has transient
stability or not, without solving the swing equation. Using of
equal area in power angle diagram from sine wave which is
known as EQUAL AREA CRITERION.

* If a fault occurs in a system, δ begins to increase under the
influence of positive accelerating power, and the system will
become unstable.
* if δ becomes very large. There is a critical angle within which
the fault must be cleared. This angle is known as the clearing
angle.
Consider a system in figure operating with mechanical input Pm at
steady angle δ0 (Pm=Pe) at point 'a' on the power angle diagram
shown in the diagram in the next slide this is steady state.
