Discuss the impact of generator\'s inertia constant on transient stability?

Solution

Inertia Determines the acceleration of the machines it also affect the transient stability

Lowering the inertia of synchronous generators results in larger rotor swings and makes the system more vulnerable to disturbances in terms of transient stability.

In systems with high penetration of converter connected generation, the inertia of a single synchronous machine is not lowered but instead the synchronous machines as such are being replaced by converter connected machines which results in lower system inertia.
