| Summary: | This work evaluates the performance of a particular
differential-algebraic equation solver, referred to as DASSL, in
power system voltage stability computer applications. The solver
is tested for a time domain long-term voltage stability scenario,
including transient disturbances, using a real power system model.
Important insights into the mechanisms of the DASSL solver are
obtained through the use of this real model, including control
devices relevant to the simulated phenomena. The results indicate
that if properly used, the solver can be a powerful numerical tool
in time domain assessment of long-term power system stability
since it comprises, among several important features, suitable and
very efficient variable order and variable step-size numerical
techniques. These characteristics are very important when CPU time
is a great concern, which is the case when the power system
operator needs reliable results in a short period of time. Prior
to the present work, this solver has never been applied in power
system stability computer analysis in time domain considering slow
and fast phenomena. |
