Research description:
Performed real-time voltage stability analysis for
a very large power system involving 15,000 bus and 1,300 generators. Also
performed research on transient and dynamic stability studies for large
power systems both for planning and operation purposes. Also have
originated distribution load flow analysis including unbalanced load and
cogenerators. Dr. Chen has performed distribution power system analysis
of 18,000 buses. This is the most sophisticated distribution analysis
ever made in the history of power system engineering. I am also
performing research on the simulation of complete distribution and
transmission power systems in the United States. In addition the Energy
Systems Research Center and Dr. Chen are developing a strategy for
protection of infrastructure (power system) of the United States.
Lab Facilities:
The faculty at the Energy Systems Research Center
(ESRC) at The University of Texas at Arlington have developed a unique
physical scaled down power system at ESRC. This laboratory includes
hardware of generation, transmission, and distribution systems with
complete SCADA system and EMS operational software. This power system
provides real load and protective relays for generation, transmission, and
distribution systems. This laboratory can not only demonstrate economic
situations, but also the security phenomena of a power system. (For
instance, voltage stability, transient stability, and dynamic stability of
the power system.)
