ESAC8B at SMIB unstable system.

asked Feb 29 '4

gabriel_ipu gravatar image

Hi, im trying to simulate am GENSAL or GENSAE (50MW) with two branches at 1 p.u. to an infinite bus. When i try to implement the ESAC8B excitation system, my simulation gets unstable, with the graphs starting to move even before the fault. What can be the problem ?

This is the control that i'm trying to use:

1 'ESAC8B' 1 0.0000 28.500 18.000 3.6600 0.30000E-01 1.0000 0.0000 27.190 0.0000 0.72000 1.0000 1.0000 0.0000 1.2000 0.0000

I guess in your case the machine model (GENSAL or GENSAE) is not good. The ESAC8B model behaves well in a simple SMIB test (machine at bus 2). Using a GENSAL model from the savnw data set, set inertia at 1.0, I did a flat run then a fault run and the plots came OK. dyr data used:

// smib.dyr
// infinite bus: bus 1
// test machine: bus 2

I tried to change but it didn't change a lot. Without the ESAC8B model, it works fine, it only has problems when i try to use it at the gen. Can you try to see what i'm doing wrong ? Please, i tried everything https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1dIksW7PRMwqmJnOCjwsDL8tRE3cieKv0?usp=drive_link%3C/p%3E (https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1dIksW7PRMwqmJnOCjwsDL8tRE3cieKv0?usp=drive_link)

I tried with GENCLS instead of GENSAL and it didn't work aswell

Channel values moving before the fault indicates initial conditions suspect. Check progress window for messages, e.g. a limiter hitting limits.

Show complete .raw and .dyr files.

Sure, it is at this google drive link: https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1s6X6r2QZGPBTHX5sn7QholX2A5UonFJM?usp=sharing%3C/p%3E (https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1s6X6r2QZGPBTHX5sn7QholX2A5UonFJM?usp=sharing)

There is a overflow in raw file for XSORCE for generator at bus 2. It works fine at my side when using XSORCE=1. Everything is stable.

Can you share with me your .py code that you used to run that ?
