Effect of Coordinated Correction of Tie-Line Bias Control in Interconnected Power System Operation

Nathan Cohn's newly proposed technique of coordinated, system-wide correction of time error and inadvertent interchange is examined and validated by computer simulations. Area and system performances are investigated for a sudden change in load or generation in a three-area power system. The following effects are examined: changing the time of correction; simultaneous versus individual correction of time error and inadvertent interchange; the type of disturbance; the governor delay time; and the presence of sustained errors.
