Version 2.0.0
Uses Modelica 4.0.0.
Extends from Modelica.Icons.Package (Icon for standard packages).
Information
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].
The component library has been validated using comparative simulations with EUROSTAG
[4]. The library has been developed and tested using DYMOLA
version 5.0, 2002-09-19, however it should work with any versions higher than 4.2a.
