Exciter Model: REEC_A and REECA1
AutoCorrection Properties
Following checks and corrections are applied during Validation and AutoCorrection.
- If 0.0 < Tv < 0.5*Mult*TimeStep then Tv = 0, ElseIf 0.5*Mult*TimeStep < Tv < Mult*TimeStep then Tv = Mult*TimeStep
- If 0.0 < Tp < 0.5*Mult*TimeStep then Tp = 0, ElseIf 0.5*Mult*TimeStep < Tp < Mult*TimeStep then Tp = Mult*TimeStep
- If 0.0 < Tiq < 0.5*Mult*TimeStep then Tiq = 0, ElseIf 0.5*Mult*TimeStep < Tiq < Mult*TimeStep then Tiq = Mult*TimeStep
- If 0.0 < Tpord < 0.5*Mult*TimeStep then Tpord = 0, ElseIf 0.5*Mult*TimeStep < Tpord < Mult*TimeStep then Tpord = Mult*TimeStep
- Kpp and Kip can't be both zero. Must be corrected by user.
- If Vmax < Vmin then swap the values
- If Qmax < Qmin then swap the values
- If Pmax < Pmin then swap the values
- If RPmax < RPmin then swap the values
- If Iqh < Iql 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 Q limits > Qmax , then Qmax = Q limits or if Q limits < Qmin , then Qmin = Q limits
- If PIq limits > Vmax , then Vmax = PIq limits or if PIq limits < Vmin, then Vmin = PIq limits
- If Pord > Pmax , then Pmax = Pord or if Pord < Pmin, then Pmin = Pord
Model Equations and/or Block Diagrams
Parameters:
| PfFlag | Power factor flag (1 – power factor control, 0 – Q control, which can be commanded by an external signal) |

| QFlag | Reactive power control flag ( 1 – voltage/Q control, 0 – constant pf or Q control) |

| Pflag | Power Flag (1 - multiply Pref signal by gen speed wg, 0 - do not multiply) |
| Vdip | The voltage below which the reactive current injection (Iqinj) logic is activated (i.e. voltage_dip = 1) |
| Vup | The voltage above which the reactive current injection (Iqinj) logic is activated (i.e. voltage_dip = 1) |

Current Limit Logic Psuedo Code
The following pseudo-code describes how the values for Ipmax, Ipmin, Iqmax, and Iqmin are updated.
Voltage_Thld2TimerActive = special boolean related to timer

if VDL1 table is empty then Iqmax = 1E10
else Iqmax = lookup from VL1 table using local_V
if not Voltage_Thld2TimerActive then begin
if VDL2 table is empty then Ipmax = 1E10
