Abstract :
This paper deals with the demonstration of the Transient Energy Function (TEF) method in large, realistic power networks. Documented examples of application in power system operation and associated software development for systems up to 228-generators and 1644-buses are given. An overview of the analytical and computational problems encountered in the large scale application of the TEF method is presented. Approaches used to overcome the problems are provided, and the relevant improvements and modifications to the TEF software are discussed.
