Transient stability analysis for symmetrical and unsymmetrical faults in mixed three-phase and six-phase power systems

1989

Abstract The aim of this paper is to analyse the transient stability of a three-phase power system with six-phase lines interconnected by three-phase to six-phase transformers. For these mixed power systems a transient stability analysis is performed under all main types of disturbances (short-circuits, generator and load rejection, line outages), particularly in the case of faults at six-phase buses. A generalized procedure to evaluate transient stability is explained in detail. It is based on the symmetrical components method, which allows one to consider also unsymmetrical faults both at three-phase and six-phase buses. For every possible unsymmetrical short-circuit an equivalent fault a…
