Analysis and Damping Control of Power System Low-frequency Oscillations

This book presents theresearch and developmentresults onpower systems oscillationsin three categories of analytical methods. First isdamping torque analysis which was proposed in 1960's, further developed between 1980-1990, and widely used in industry. Second ismodal analysis which developed between the 1980's and 1990's as the most powerful method. Finally thelinearized equal-area criterion analysis that is proposed and developed recently. The book covers three main types of controllers: Power System Stabilizer (PSS), FACTS (Flexible AC Transmission Systems) stabilizer, and ESS (Energy Storage Systems) stabilizer. The book provides a systematic and detailed introduction on the subject as the reference for industry applications and academic research.
