Verification and expansion of a method of transient analysis of voltage collapse based on the induction motor load model

Voltage instability is now under intensive study in Japan, and some dynamic methods for analyzing voltage collapse have already been presented. However, the suitability of load models used in the methods and the generality of the results have not been verified. In this paper, useful voltage collapse data acquired in real power systems are presented. The measured data are compared with the result of dynamic digital simulation to verify the suitability of an induction motor load model. In the latter half of this paper, dynamic simulations of voltage collapse with consideration of generator dynamics are carried out. An interconnected power model system with 10 nodes is analyzed. The generality of basic characteristics concerning voltage collapse which have already been obtained without considering generator dynamics is verified by such simulations.
