Abstract From the Canadian patent

Power system stabilizers are used in the excitation systems of large shaft driven synchronous dynamoelectric machines for the purpose of enhancing the dynamic stability of power generating systems. Such stabilizers using speed, power or frequency as an input signal when applied with high initial response excitation systems are effective in damping low-frequency local or inter-tie mode oscillations which may occur in the system. The power system stabilizer may adversely affect torsional damping at higher frequencies. The adverse effects of a power system stabilizer at shaft torsional frequencies are obviated by providing a torsional oscillation protection device comprising a composite …
