Generic Excitation Limiter Implementation

Type C excitation system transient stability models, as per IEEE standard 421.5-2016, have the ability to allow limiters to be added at one of multiple points within the model. The excitation limiters models also allow their own parameters to be modified, in order for them to be compatible with the exciter model that is in […]

3D File Format for GMD/HEMP Event Inputs

The B3D binary file format uses little-endian order and holds two-dimensional, time-varying data such as electric fields on the surface of the earth. Because the magnitude and direction can be non-uniform in time and space, it can be used where a 3D earth resistivity model is assumed. Applications in PowerWorld Simulator include geomagnetic disturbance (GMD) […]
