A Synthesis Method for One-Port and Multi-Port Equivalent Networks for Analysis of Power System Transients

TLDR: In this paper, an iterative method is developed for synthesizing one-port equivalent networks by the removal of poles corresponding to resonances of the driving-point impedance or admittance function.

Abstract: Equivalent networks can be used in power system simulation to reduce simulation equipment or computer time and memory space. In this paper, an iterative method is developed for synthesizing one-port equivalent networks by the removal of poles corresponding to resonances of the driving-point impedance or admittance function. This results in networks formed by the series or parallel connection of modular RLC circuits. The RLC values are calculated using a parameter-optimization technique. Multi-port equivalent networks are first configured as ? or T forme composed of one-port network branches and the latters are then synthesized by the proposed method for one-port equivalent networks.
