Stability and stability limit:
Power System Stability: is the property of the system which enables
the synchronous machines of the system to respond to a
disturbance from a normal operating condition so as to return to a
condition where their operation is again normal.

• The ability of the power system to remain in synchronism
and maintain the state of equilibrium following a
disturbing force
• Steady-state stability: analysis of small and slow disturbances
gradual power changes

- A system is voltage stable if V-Q sensitivity is positive for
every bus and voltage unstable if V-Q sensitivity is negative
for at least one bus.
- Rotor angles b/n two groups of machines approach
or exceed 180o would result in very low voltages

NB: the aim of stability study is determine whether or not the rotors of
the machine being perupted returns to constant speed operation.

Where:
Pm = shaft power input to the machine less rotational
losses Pe = electrical power crossing its air gap
Pa = accelerating power which accounts for any
unbalance between those two quantities

THE POWER-ANGLE EQUATION
•In the swing equation for the generator the input mechanical power from the
prime mover, Pm' will be considered constant.
•When Pe equals Pm, the machine operates at steady state synchronous speed;
when Pe , changes from this value, the rotor deviates from synchronous
speed .
•Each synchronous machine is represented for transient stability studies by its
transient internal voltage Ei , in series with the transient reactance Xd’ , as
shown below in which Vt is the terminal voltage.

Letting k and N equal 1 and 2, respectively, and substituting E' for V, we
obtain;

EQUAL-AREA CRITERION OF STABILITY:
To examine the stability of a two- machine system without solving the swing equation,
a direct approach is possible as now discussed .
