9 SSO and SSR definitions Definitions are given by IEEE Sub synchronous Resonance WG of the System Dynamics Performance Subcommittee, June Sub synchronous Oscillations (SSO) are electromechanical interaction, either between a turbine-generator and passive system elements such as series capacitors, or between a turbinegenerator and active system elements such as HVDC transmission equipment controls, and static VAR system controls. Turbine-generator electromechanical interaction with series capacitors has historically been known as the phenomena of Sub synchronous Resonance (SSR). April 1, 2016 Slide 9

10 SSO and SSR categories Induction Generator Effect (IGE) An electrical phenomena that results from an electrical resonance between a series capacitor and a generator Torsional Interaction (TI) Occurs when the electrical system operation results in mechanical damping at the generator that is negative and sufficiently large to exceed the inherent mechanical damping of the shaft at a natural torsional frequency of the mechanical system Torque Amplification (TA) Shaft torsional stresses due to system disturbances which result in resonance between electrical and mechanical natural frequencies. Can occur because of a resonance with a series capacitor Can occur because of the control action of devices such as HVDC converters, SVC/s and STATCOM s Sub synchronous Control Interaction (SSCI) April 1, 2016 Slide 10 Interactions between a power electronic device (such as an HVDC link, SVC, wind turbine, etc.) and a series compensated system.

11 How shaft of a turbo machine look like Properties of Turbo Machines Several masses on the shaft Long shaft / axle from 30m up to 100m Gen = generator Exc = exciter HP= high pressure turbine IP = intermediate pressure turbine LPA/LPB = low pressure turbines These masses can oscillate against each other April 1, 2016 Slide 11

12 Sub-synchronous phenomena Torsional oscillations Mass 1 HP Mass 2 IP Mass 3 LP1 Mass 4 LP2 Mass 5 Generator Mass 6 Exciter For sub-synchronous considerations, lumped masses for each turbine is typically sufficient If there are N masses, there will be N modes 1 non-oscillatory mode N-1 oscillatory modes Each mass participates differently in each mode Perturbations of the mechanical system will stimulate the modes Sudden change in input torque due to governor action Sudden change in electrical torque (fault or step-change of load on grid) The energy put into each oscillatory mode will exchange between kinetic energy (mass speed) and potential energy (shaft twist = spring) April 1, 2016 Slide 12
