The stability conditions at the point where the two curves intersect is

\left.\begin{array}{rl} Q_1:\quad \frac{\Delta T_L}{\Delta \omega_m} & =\text { positive } \\ \frac{\Delta T}{\Delta \omega_m} & =\text { negative. } \end{array}\right\}>>>>>\text { stable. }

Therefore, an induction machine connected to a mechanical load with parabolic torquespeed characteristics as shown in Fig. E3.5.1 will not experience any steady-state stability problems.
