An eigenvalue analysis of a large electric power system using the computer program AESOPS is described. It illustrates the kind of investigation for which the program is intended and discusses procedures for efficient program application. Data are from the MAPP (Mid-Continent Area Power Pool) system. The situations studied serve the needs of this project with regard to computer program development and do not necessarily reflect power system engineering concerns of the MAPP organization. Study results include descriptions of ten intersystem modes of oscillation and fifty local modes. The ten intersystem modes are studied in sufficient detail to show the effects of a selected set of contingencies, the effects of dc line supplementary controls, and the effects of power system stabilizers. A method of calculating approximate eigenvalues at significantly reduced costs produces acceptable accuracy for all ten intersystem modes.
