Synchrophasor based method for computing the Thevenin equivalent impedance seen by a concentrated wind farm region

Transmission line reactance is an important parameter in carrying out stability studies. The model proposed here utilizes available real time synchrophasor data and information about the generation in the ERCOT grid to determine the Thevenin equivalent reactance of a line. Synchrophasors provide the advantage of synchronized measurements of phase angles which are essential in determining the transmission line reactance. This thesis provides the results of applying this model to estimate the Thevenin equivalent line reactance between McDonald Observatory in West Texas and The University of Texas at Austin. / text
