A Modelica Library for Power System Stability Studies

Library description

The ObjectStab package is a Modelica Library for Power Systems Voltage and Transient stability simulations and presently contains the following component models:

• Generators with constant frequency and voltage as slack or PV nodes, or using 3rd or 6th order dq-models with excitation and prime mover control systems.
• Transmission lines in pi-link or series impedance representation.
• Reactive power compensation devices; shunt reactors, shunt capacitances and series capacitances according to [1].
• Fixed ratio transformers.
• On-load tap changing transformers (OLTC) modeled as detailed discrete models or using their corresponding continuous approximations according to [2].
• Static and dynamic loads, including induction motor according to [1] and generic exponential recovery loads according to [3].
• Buses.
• Faulted lines and buses including fault impedance.

Standard assumptions for multi-machine transient stability simulations are made, i.e., generator stator and network time constants are neglected and voltages and currents are assumed to be sinusoidal and symmetrical. Except where other references are given, the components are modeled according to the guidelines given in [1].

Current release

Download Latest development version

• Partially updated version of ObjectStab v1.0c (September 25, 2002)
• Updated to work with MSL 3.2.1 but still with issues:
  • All controllers using Petri-nets have not been changed and will not work in the present form.
  • The PI-lines (one PI-element) contain a half-capacitor at each end.
  • Loads consume the desired active\reactive power at initial voltage.
  • The Examples package contains additionally the 'KundurHJW'-package (slight modification of original). Status:
  • fix pre statements outside when
  • fix mixture of scalar and vector values
  • fix usage of deprecated petri nets from ModelicaAdditions (use Modelica 3.3 syntax instead)

Release notes

• Version v1.0.3 (2002-09-25)
  • Fixed compatibility issues with Dymola 4.3/5.0.
  • still using MSL 1.6 and ModelicaAdditions 1.5
