Abstract: This lecture presents a new modeling and simulation method for the dynamic performance analysis of a multi-machine power system under a symmetrical and unsymmetrical fault conditions. Transient analysis of the system is based on a-d-c phase coordinates. An adaptive excitations controller is applied to a generator in a multi-machine power system to improve the dynamic stability characteristics.
