Transient Stability Analysis for Solar-Integrated Electrical Grid

AI Thread Summary
The discussion focuses on the challenges of conducting transient stability analysis for a solar-integrated electrical grid using ETAP, particularly due to the lack of a PV system module and the software's inability to consider DC elements. The user is exploring alternatives, such as designing a battery integrated with an inverter to simulate the PV system, but is uncertain about the feasibility of this approach. There is a request for suggestions on other simulation tools that can accommodate an IEEE 14 bus system with PV generation for transient stability analysis. The conversation highlights a need for effective solutions in modeling solar energy integration within electrical grid simulations. Overall, the user seeks guidance on overcoming these technical limitations.

Hello Guys,

I am planning to design electrical grid connected with solar distribution generation system using ETAP. I tried to run trasinet stability analysis of this system with fault at each and every line/branch of the system, to get corresponding critical clearing times. I realized that ETAP doesn't have a module for PV system, and decided to design a Battery integrated with Inverter to represent pv system, only to realize that the transient stability analysis in ETAP dosen't consider DC elements. Now i am worried if my project and had no clue of what to do. I am asking if anybody have any ideas of what to do or any other simulation tool where i can design a IEEE 14 bus system integrated with PV generation unit where i can run trasinet stability analysis.

Thank you for you help in advance,
Raj

Thread '3-terminal device external modeling'

Very basic question. Consider a 3-terminal device with terminals say A,B,C. Kirchhoff Current Law (KCL) and Kirchhoff Voltage Law (KVL) establish two relationships between the 3 currents entering the terminals and the 3 terminal's voltage pairs respectively. So we have 2 equations in 6 unknowns. To proceed further we need two more (independent) equations in order to solve the circuit the 3-terminal device is connected to (basically one treats such a device as an unbalanced two-port...

Thread 'Question about the voltage between two charged capacitors'

suppose you have two capacitors with a 0.1 Farad value and 12 VDC rating. label these as A and B. label the terminals of each as 1 and 2. you also have a voltmeter with a 40 volt linear range for DC. you also have a 9 volt DC power supply fed by mains. you charge each capacitor to 9 volts with terminal 1 being - (negative) and terminal 2 being + (positive). you connect the voltmeter to terminal A2 and to terminal B1. does it read any voltage? can - of one capacitor discharge + of the...
