Abstract: The development of a MATLAB/Simulink-based virtual laboratory for studying sub-synchronous resonance (SSR) offers a robust educational platform for analyzing complex power system interactions. Based on the IEEE first benchmark model, this virtual environment provides a safe, efficient, and comprehensive tool for engineering students to study the dangerous interactions between series-compensated lines and turbogenerator shaft systems. The simulation features a 920 MVA, 60 Hz turbogenerator connected to an infinite bus through a series-compensated line. Students can analyze torsional interaction, which result from energy exchange between the electrical network and the mechanical shaft. Higher degrees of series compensation increase the risk of SSR, as the electrical resonant frequency matches the complement of one of the mechanical shaft torsional modes. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
