Fast Transient Stability Solutions

Techniques are described for improving the speed of large transient stability studies without sacrificing accuracy. A fast iterative method for solving the algebraic network equations, including the effect of generator saliency, is explained. A new technique for solving the differential equations with the implicit trapezoidal rule of integration is introduced. These two techniques can be combined into one simultaneous solution, thereby eliminating the problem of interface error between the differential and algebraic equation solutions of the traditional approach.
