Analysis of Nonlinear Characteristics for Forced Oscillation Affected by Quadratic Nonlinearity.

Forced oscillation is challenging power system stability. Most previous research was based on linear models, so analysis of nonlinear characteristics of forced oscillation in power system is missing. Thus, this letter aims to theoretically reveal the effect of the quadratic nonlinearity on forced oscillation. A multi-scale technique is employed, by which the amplitude-frequency function of the steady response and the approximated first-order analytical expression of the dynamic response are derived for nonlinear forced oscillation. Interesting phenomena of frequency deviation and jumping caused by nonlinearity are found and explained. Above expressions and phenomena are verified by numerical simulation. Although revealing all characteristics of nonlinear forced oscillation in power system is difficult, the analysis results in this letter could offer insights. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
