Hi, I found the quotation how to draw stability curve of generator, for central point it is: V^2/2(1/xe – 1/xd) and radius : V^2/2(1/xe + 1/xd). I tried to find from where it comes my result is slightly different from above quotations. I can not find mistake. I tried to find any information in the internet but I can only find above mentioned quotations. If somebody knows how to receive above result or where I can find it please let me know.
Thank you for help
Regards
Pawel

First of all, those equations don't look quite right for drawing stability curves. At best, what you have is a couple of rule of thumb equations and, without knowing their context, I can't comment on them further.

For a single generator, the real and reactive power curves aren't difficult to derive, but for a generator feeding into a grid, the stability solution is quite complex. I don't think a simple on-line resource is going to give you the answer you want. You'd be better off starting with a textbook on the subject of power systems analysis.
