Bifurcations and stability boundary of a power system (Q1884662)

A ``single-machine infinite-bus power system'' model \(\dot x = f(x)\) in \(\mathbb{R}^6\) due to \textit{C. Rajagopalan, B. Lesieutre, P. W. Sauer} and \textit{M. A. Pai} [Dynamic aspects of voltage/power characteristics, Transactions on power systems 7, No.3, 990-996 (1992)] is investigated. ``As the bifurcation parameter \(P_m\) (input power to the generator) varies, the system exhibits dynamics emerging from static and dynamic bifurcations which link with system collapse. We show that the equilibrium point of the system undergoes three bifurcations: one saddle-node bifurcation and two Hopf bifurcations.'' Results of numerical simulations are illustrated.
