Zero-Power Output Issue in GE Wind Model for Simulations Longer Than 3.5 Seconds

I conducted two transient simulations that start with a steady state and then trip the largest generator at 1 second. The first simulation is 3.5 seconds long, and the second is 4 seconds long.

In the 3.5-second simulation, the GE wind model outputs are non-zero. However, in simulations of 4 seconds or longer, the outputs remain zero, and plots only show values within the first second.

How can I fix the zero-power output issue for simulations longer than 3.5 seconds?

Comments

Something is wrong with the simulations if the two results are not identical up to 3.5 seconds. Check the output in progress properly!

Is there a Python command that shows the output in progress or indicates if the transient simulation is converging? I used Python code to run the PSSE simulations.

How do you simulate without seeing the progress output? You can always run the script inside PSSE.
