Abstract
A method of controlling a power generation system following a transient grid event, and a system and controller to control the power generation system are described. The method includes sensing a rate of change of electrical frequency at terminals of a generator, determining a rate of change of shaft line acceleration, and identifying the transient grid event based on the rate of change of shaft line acceleration. The method also includes triggering an action to recover from the transient grid event when the rate of change of electrical frequency exceeds a first specified value and the rate of change of shaft line acceleration exceeds a second specified value for a specified duration.
