Abstract: | This paper presents new aggregation algorithms for obtaining reduced order power networks when coherent generators are aggregated. The generation terminal bus aggregation algorithm in the EPRI DYNRED software tends to stiffen the reduced order network during the aggregation process, thus increasing the frequencies of inter-area modes. The inertial and slow coherency aggregations will decrease the stiffening effect and produce, for the same coherent machine groups, aggregate networks with improved inter-area mode approximations. This paper contains new procedures to construct these aggregate networks and demonstrates the benefits of these new aggregate networks on a 48-machine power system using eigenvalues and nonlinear simulations |
