Bus Plant Controller Model: REPC_D
NOTE: REPC_D is in the same family of controller as the Generator Plant Controllers such as REPC_A, however the REPC_D model is assign to a Bus object instead of a Generator object.
Thus to create the object you must go to Stability tab on the Bus dialog or look in the Model Explorer under Transient Stability\Bus Models
AutoCorrection Properties
Following checks and corrections are applied during Validation and AutoCorrection.
- The following parameter pairs should have a maximum value that is positive and a minimum value that is negative:
Femax/Femin, Emax/Emin, and frmax/frmin
If both values are positive, then we will assume the minimum value should have had a negative sign.
If both values are negative, then we will assume the maximum value should have had a positive sign.
If the Max < 0 AND Min > 0, then we will assume the numbers have been entered backwards and we will swap the values. - The following parameter pairs should have a maximum value that is greater or equal to than the minimum value:
Qvmax/Qvmin, Pmax/Pmin, vrefmax/vrefmin, Qrefmax/Qrefmin, dprefmax/dprefmin, qvrmax/qvrmin, dprmax/dprmin, pfmax/pfmin, Prmax/Prmin, PImax/PImin
If the Max < Min then the values will be swapped by the Auto Correction. - dbd1 and fdbd1 represent low side deadbands which should always be negative. We will assume a parameter equal to the negative of the absolute value entered.
- dbd2 and fdbd2 represent high side deadbands which should always be positive. We will assume a parameter equal to the positive of the absolute value entered.
- For Tfltr, Tp, Tlag, Tc, and Tfrq
If 0.0 < X < 0.5*Mult*TimeStep then X = 0, ElseIf 0.5*Mult*TimeStep < x < Mult*TimeStep then X = Mult*TimeStep - When (RefFlag=1) AND (VcompFlag=0) AND (Kc<>0), a branch should be specified on which to measure Qbranch to perform voltage control with reactive droop. If none is specified then the output of the generator
Mult represents the user-specified value Minimum time constant size as multiple of time step option on the Validation page of the Transient Stability Dialog
TimeStep represents the integration time step being used as described on TimeStep
