Study and Analysis of Transient Stability in Power Systems

Abstract- A power system is considered to be transiently stable if it can regain and maintain synchronism after a sudden disturbance. Circuit breakers play a pivotal role in maintaining transient stability of power systems. Using high speed circuit breakers, transient stability can be achieved efficiently in power systems. The project has aimed at the improvement of the transient stability using high speed breakers. The implementation of the technique has been carried out through MATLAB R2009b.
