Exciter Model: ESST1A and ESST1A_GE

ESST1A:

Following checks and corrections are applied during Validation and AutoCorrection.

• If 0.0 < Tf < 0.5*Mult*TimeStep then Tf = 0, ElseIf 0.5*Mult*TimeStep < Tf < Mult*TimeStep then Tf = Mult*TimeStep
• If 0.0 < Tb < 0.5*Mult*TimeStep then Tb = 0, ElseIf 0.5*Mult*TimeStep < Tb < Mult*TimeStep then Tb = Mult*TimeStep
• If 0.0 < Tb1 < 0.5*Mult*TimeStep then Tb1 = 0, ElseIf 0.5*Mult*TimeStep < Tb1 < Mult*TimeStep then Tb1 = Mult*TimeStep
• If 0.0 < Tr < 0.25*Mult*TimeStep then Tr = 0.0
  ElseIf 0.25*Mult*TimeStep < Tr < 0.5*Mult*TimeStep then Tr = 0.5*Mult*TimeStep
• If Ka = 0 then Ka = Mult*TimeStep
• If Vrmax < Vrmin then swap the values
• If Vamax < Vamin then swap the values
• If Vimax < Vimin then swap the values

ESST1A_GE:

Following checks and corrections are applied during Validation and AutoCorrection.

• If 0.0 < Tf < 0.3*Mult*TimeStep then Tf = 0.0
  ElseIf 0.3*Mult*TimeStep < Tf < 0.6*Mult*TimeStep then Tf = 0.6*Mult*TimeStep
• If 0.0 < Tb < 0.3*Mult*TimeStep then Tb = 0.0
  ElseIf 0.3*Mult*TimeStep < Tb < 0.6*Mult*TimeStep then Tb = 0.6*Mult*TimeStep
• If 0.0 < Tb1 < 0.3*Mult*TimeStep then Tb1 = 0.0
  ElseIf 0.3*Mult*TimeStep < Tb1 < 0.6*Mult*TimeStep then Tb1 = 0.6*Mult*TimeStep
• If 0.0 < Tr < 0.25*Mult*TimeStep then Tr = 0.0
  ElseIf 0.25*Mult*TimeStep < Tr < 0.5*Mult*TimeStep then Tr = 0.5*Mult*TimeStep
• If Ka = 0 then Ka = Mult*TimeStep
• If Vrmax < Vrmin then swap the values
• If Vamax < Vamin then swap the values
• If Vimax < Vimin then swap the values

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

Following treatment is handled during the transient numerical simulation

• If Efd > (Vrmax- Kc*Ifd), then Efd = (Vrmax- Kc*Ifd) limits or if Efd< Vrmin, then Vrmin = Efd
• If Va > Vamax, then Vamax = Va or if Va< Vamin, then Vamin = Va
• If Vi > Vimax, then Vimax = Vi or if Vi < Vimin, then Vimin = Vi
