AEqual Area Criterion

This is a direct method to check the stability of a synchronous generator (connected to an infinite bus) that is subjected to disturbance(s). The method does not require the solution of the nonlinear equation. The assumptions in applying the equal area criterion (EAC) are:

  1. classical machine model described by the swing equation
  2. rotor damping is neglected.

The application of the EAC assumes that if the system is stable in the first swing, it continues to remain stable although the rotor may oscillate about its final steady state.

Consider the swing equation given by

(A.1)equation

where images is the inertia, images is the rotor angle with respect to the synchronously rotating reference, and images and images are the mechanical and electrical (output) power, respectively. It is assumed that the operating speed is assumed to be at rated value (1 pu).

Multiplying both sides of (A.1) by images and integrating ...
