# GenClassical _Source: `GridKit/Model/PhasorDynamics/SynchronousMachine/GenClassical/README.md`_ ## Classical Generator An electrical machine model with two differential variables (i.e. second-order model) is often called classical generator model. While its predictive ability is limited, it is useful for studies of grid network properties. Mathematically, it is equivalent to a driven damped pendulum model. ### Model Parameters Symbol | Units | Description | Note ------------|---------|---------------------------------|---------------------- $P_0$ | [p.u.] | initial active power injection | $Q_0$ | [p.u.] | initial reactive power injection | $H$ | [s] | rotor inertia | $D$ | [p.u.] | damping coefficient | $R_a$ | [p.u.] | winding resistance | $X_{dp}$ | [p.u.] | machine reactance parameter | $S_\mathrm{mach}$ | [MVA] | machine power base | #### Model Derived Parameters - $G = \dfrac{R_a}{R_a^2 + X_{dp}^2} ~~~$ equivalent stator winding conductance - $B = \dfrac{-X_{dp}}{R_a^2 + X_{dp}^2} ~~~$ equivalent stator winding susceptance - $f_\mathrm{base} = f_\mathrm{sys} ~~~$ frequency base taken from the system at initialization - $S_\mathrm{mach,VA} = 10^6 S_\mathrm{mach} ~~~$ derived machine base used for machine-base/system-base conversions
### Model Variables #### Internal Variables ##### Differential Symbol | Units | Description | Note ------------|---------|---------------------|---------------------- $\delta$ | [rad] | machine power angle | $\omega$ | [p.u] | machine speed deviation | Optionally read by a governor or a stabilizer component ##### Algebraic Symbol | Units | Description | Note --------|--------|-------------------------------------|------------- $T_{e}$ | [p.u.] | electrical torque | $I_r$ | [p.u.] | machine real injection current | read by bus $I_i$ | [p.u.] | machine imaginary injection current | read by bus Note: All three can be expressed as a function called by the model equations. We add these as variables as they are needed for outputs.
#### External Variables External variables enter component model equations but are owned by other components. The other components also provide equations needed to have a balanced system of equations. ##### Differential None. ##### Algebraic Symbol | Units | Description | Note -------|---------|-------------------------------|---------------------- $V_r$ | [p.u.] | machine bus real voltage | owned by a bus object $V_i$ | [p.u.] | machine bus imaginary voltage | owned by a bus object $P_m$ | [p.u.] | mechanical power input | owned by governor, constant if no governor is connected to the machine $E_p$ | [p.u.] | field winding voltage | owned by exciter, constant if no exciter is connected to the machine
### Model Equations #### Differential Equations ```{math} \begin{aligned} \dot{\delta} &= \omega \cdot 2\pi f_\mathrm{base} \\ \dot{\omega} &= \frac{1}{2H}\left( \frac{P_{m} - D\omega}{1+\omega} - T_{e}\right) \end{aligned} ``` #### Algebraic Equations ```{math} \begin{aligned} 0 &= T_{e} - \left( G E_p^2 - E_p \left[(G V_r - B V_i)\cos\delta + (B V_r + G V_i)\sin\delta \right]\right) \\ 0 &= I_r + G V_r - B V_i - E_p(G \cos\delta - B \sin\delta) \\ 0 &= I_i + B V_r + G V_i - E_p(B \cos\delta + G \sin\delta) \end{aligned} ``` As noted earlier, all three algebraic equations can be expressed as functions and substituted directly in the component and bus equations, respectively. We use redundant variables for modeling convenience.
### Initialization To initialize the model, given bus voltages $V_r$, $V_i$, and initial generator injection active and reactive power, $P$ and $Q$, we take following steps to initialize the system: Complex power is defined as ```{math} S=VI^{*} ``` or ```{math} P + jQ = (V_r + j V_i)(I_r - j I_i). ``` From here, we compute injection currents from the initial power injection and bus voltages as ```{math} \begin{aligned} I_r &= \frac{PV_r + QV_i}{V_r^2 + V_i^2} \\ I_i &= \frac{PV_i - QV_r}{V_r^2 + V_i^2} \end{aligned} ``` We substitute the expressions above into equations for current injections and obtain ```{math} \begin{aligned} E_p \sin\delta &= \dfrac{-B I_r + G I_i}{G^2 + B^2} + V_i \\ E_p \cos\delta &= \dfrac{G I_r + B I_i}{G^2 + B^2} + V_r \end{aligned} ``` By dividing these two equations, we get an expression for the machine angle at the steady state: ```{math} \delta = \arctan \dfrac{E_i}{E_r} \, , ``` And by squaring and adding them, we get an expression for the field winding voltage at the steady state ```{math} E_p = \sqrt{E_r^2 + E_i^2} \, , ``` where ```{math} \begin{aligned} E_r &= \dfrac{G I_r + B I_i}{G^2 + B^2} + V_r \, ,\\ E_i &= \dfrac{-B I_r + G I_i}{G^2 + B^2} + V_i \, . \end{aligned} ``` Next, we set the machine speed deviation to zero: ```{math} \omega = 0 ``` Now, we can compute the electrical torque and set the mechanical torque to be equal to the electrical: ```{math} \begin{aligned} T_{e} &= G E_p^2 - E_p \left[ (G V_r - B V_i ) \cos\delta + (B V_r + G V_i )\sin\delta \right] \\ P_{m} &= T_{e} \end{aligned} ``` With this, we initialize the machine at a steady state. ### Model Outputs Symbol | Units | Description | Note -----------|--------|-----------------------------------|------ $I_r$ | [p.u.] | Terminal current, real component on network reference frame | Oriented leaving the machine, system base $I_i$ | [p.u.] | Terminal current, imaginary component on network reference frame | Oriented leaving the machine, system base $P$ | [p.u.] | Active power, $V_rI_r+V_iI_i$ | Oriented leaving the machine, system base $Q$ | [p.u.] | Reactive power, $V_iI_r-V_rI_i$ | Oriented leaving the machine, system base $\delta$ | [rad] | Machine internal rotor angle | $\omega$ | [p.u.] | Machine speed deviation | $\omega=0$ at synchronous speed
