Power system stability study by Szego's method and a maximized Liapunov function

University of British Columbia

In this thesis Liapunov's direct method is applied to transient stability study of power systems. Szego's method is applied to a second order power system in chapter two and a quadratic Liapunov function applied to the same system in chapter three. The hypervolume enclosed by the quadratic V-function is maximized. Changes in the time derivative of the quadratic V function are then made to meet the conditions of Liapunov V and V functions. Finally a maximized modified Liapunov function is constructed from a tentative quadratic function for a three-machine system.
