Exciter Model: ST6C
Following checks and corrections are applied during Validation and AutoCorrection.
- If 0.0 < Tr < 0.5*Mult*TimeStep then Tr = 0, ElseIf 0.5*Mult*TimeStep < Tr < Mult*TimeStep then Tr = Mult*TimeStep
- If 0.0 < Tg < 0.5*Mult*TimeStep then Tg = 0, ElseIf 0.5*Mult*TimeStep < Tg < Mult*TimeStep then Tg = Mult*TimeStep
- If 0.0 < Ta < 0.5*Mult*TimeStep then Ta = 0, ElseIf 0.5*Mult*TimeStep < Ta < Mult*TimeStep then Ts = Mult*TimeStep
- Kff and Km: (Kff + Km) can not be zero. Must be fixed.
- Kpa and Kia: Kpa can't be 0 if Kia = 0, if true then Kpa changed to 40.
- If Vrmax < Vrmin then swap the values
- If Vamax < Vamin then swap the values
- If VMmax < VMmin then swap the values
Mult represents the user-specified value Minimum time constant size as multiple of time step option on the Validation page of the Transient Stability Dialog
TimeStep represents the integration time step being used as described on TimeStep
Following treatment is handled during the transient numerical simulation
- If Vr > Vrmax, then Vrmax = Vr or if Vr < Vrmin, then Vrmin = Vr
- If VM > VMmax, then VMmax = VM or if VM < VMmin, then VMmin = VM
- If VA > VAmax, then VAmax = VA or if VA < VAmin, then VAmin = VA
