The Coordinated Immersion and Variance Control of Power Systems With Excitation and Steam-Valve

Abstract

Transient stability is the key problem for reliable and secure planning under the new deregulated market conditions. By using immersion and invariance (I&I) method, a nonlinear coordinated generator excitation and steam-valve controller is designed to improve transient stability of power systems. The proposed coordinated I&I controller can assure power angle stability, voltage, and frequency regulations, when a large disturbance occurs on the transmission line or a small perturbation to mechanical power. Compared with the Lyapunov method, the proposed method does not need to construct a Lyapunov energy function. Some numerical simulations are used to validate the proposed controller. Simulation results show that the nonlinear coordinated I&I controller has better control performance than the existing coordinated passivation controller (CPC).
