EE1117 : PSS/E Stability Analysis

This practical and highly-interactive course includes various practical sessions and exercises. Theory learnt will be applied using our state-of-the-art simulators. 

 

This course is designed to provide participants with a detailed and up-to-date overview of Power System Simulator for Engineering (PSSE) Stability Analysis. It covers the power system stability, PSSE modules and interfaces including PSSE graphical interface and command line usage; the buses, generators, loads and transmission lines; the transformers, switched shunts, static and dynamic model distinctions, equipment parameter settings and load flow studies in PSSE; and the dynamic data files (DYR), machine models and control systems. 

 

Further, the course will also discuss the load modeling techniques, simulation initialization and validation; the event and disturbance definition and running time-domain simulations; tuning dynamic models for realistic behavior; matching simulated response with real data; the sensitivity to parameter changes and proper documentation and reporting; the transient stability concepts, protection and control coordination and multi-machine system stability; and the application of power system stabilizers (PSS). 

 

During this interactive course, participants will learn the voltage stability analysis, visualizing and reporting stability results and renewable integration and dynamic models; the frequency stability analysis, contingency analysis and stability margins; the FACTS and HVDC systems modeling and model validation using measurement data; the python scripting basics, automating simulations and case setup, batch processing and reporting and custom functions and user-defined tools; and the fine-tuning system response, stability index trends, impact of network reconfiguration and optimizing control schemes.
