Method and means for damping supersynchronous oscillations in an ac power system

摘要

Damping of supersynchronous oscillations in an ac power system is accomplished by a damping circuit connected between a power line and a system neutral potential. The damping means includes a tuned circuit having a resonant frequency above the system operating frequency. Preferably, the tuned circuit further has an antiresonant frequency at the system frequency. The supersynchronous damping circuit in accordance with the invention can be used with subsynchronous damping circuits known in the prior art to enhance the damping of oscillations in the ac power system.
