THE ANALYSIS OF THE EFFECT OF TİME DELAY ON STABILITY REGIONS IN AUTOMATIC VOLTAGE REGULATION SYSTEMS WİTH PI CONTROLLERS

Abstract

In electric power systems, changes in active and reactive power can cause fluctuations in terminal voltage, which may unfavorable system stability. Therefore, voltage stability is a crucial indicator for the reliable and efficient operation of power systems. This study investigates the impact of time delay on the stability regions of automatic voltage regulation systems with Proportional–Integral (PI) controllers. Time delay in electric power systems is a critical parameter that directly influences control performance and has significant impacts on system stability and transient response. Within this scope, a weighted geometric center-based approach is adopted using stability boundary locus for determining PI controller parameter values in time-delayed automatic voltage regulation systems. In the proposed approach, the stability boundaries are determined for various delay values, and the resulting changes in PI controller parameters are analyzed. Simulation results demonstrate that time delay shifts the stability boundaries and causes notable differences in transient behavior.
