Exciter Model: EXDC2_GE

Following checks and corrections are applied during Validation and AutoCorrection.
- 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 0 < Te < Mult*TimeStep then Te = Mult*TimeStep
- If 0 < Tf1 < Mult*TimeStep then Tf1 = Mult*TimeStep
- If 0 < Ta < Mult*TimeStep then Ta = Mult*TimeStep
- If Ka = 0 then Ka = 1
- If Vrmax < Vrmin 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 Vr > Vrmax, then Vrmax = Vr or if Vr < Vrmin, then Vrmin = Vr
