PREPRINT OF DOI 10.1109/TPWRS.2013.2244924, IEEE TRANSACTIONS ON POWER SYSTEMS, VOL 28, NO 3, AUG 2013, 3184-3193 1 Analysis of Induction Motor Cascading Stall in a Simple System Based on the CASCADE Model Hao Wu, Member IEEE and Ian Dobson, Fellow IEEE Abstract—It is common for many induction motors to be Expected admittance of all motors connected to a load bus, and voltage can sometimes quickly Expected number of motors stalled at steady-state collapse when an initial disturbance triggers a cascade of motors Expected load bus voltage at steady-state stalling. We analyze a single line power system supplying a bus Expected voltage drop after initial disturbance with many induction motors. Variation and uncertainty in the motor load is modeled probabilistically. We describe an analytic Expected voltage drop when an extra motor stalled method to estimate the parameters of a model of cascading failure , Size of initial disturbance and the amount of from system parameters, and hence estimate the probabilities of propagation in CASCADE model the number of motors stalled. The analytic method gives insights into cascading stall and relates system parameters to the risk of I. INTRODUCTION cascading stall. Induction motors are one of the most important dynamic Index Terms—induction motor, cascading failure, load model- loads in power systems and have significant impacts on power ing, voltage stability. system dynamic performance and stability [
