General Description
1 General Description
The correct modelling of synchronous generators is a very important issue in all kinds of studies of electrical
power systems. PowerFactory provides highly accurate models which can be used for the whole range of different
analyses, starting simplified models for load-flow and short-circuit calculations up to very complex models for
transient simulations.
Basically there are two different representations of the synchronous generator:
The generators with a round rotor are used when the shaft is rotating with or close to synchronous speed of
1500 min-1to 3000 min-1. These types are normally used in thermal or nuclear power plants. Slow rotating
synchronous generators with speed of 60 min-1 to 750 min-1, which are for example applied in diesel or hydro
power plants, are realized with salient rotors.
A schematic diagram of both types of machines is shown in Figure 1 and Figure 2. These figures are also
indicating the orientation d- and q-axis according to the theory of the synchronous machine developed in the next
section.

1.1.2 Mechanics
The accelerating torque is the difference between the input torque (mechanical torque) tm and the out put torque
(electromechanic torque) te of the generator. The inertia of the generator-shaft system is then accelerated or
decelerated, when an unbalance in the torques occurs.
The equations of motion of the generator can then be expressed as
J n2 dn
dn
= Ta
= tm + te

The inertia of the generator and the turbine can then be expressed in a normalized per unit form as the inertia
time constant H in [s], with

General Description
1.1.4 Saturation
So far saturation effects where not included in the description of the equivalent circuits. The exact representation
of saturation is very complex, but normally not necessary to obtain good results from simulations. Therefore in
most cases saturation is represented by the saturation of the mutual reactances xmd and xmq only.
Consideration of saturation of magnetizing reactance in d- and q-axis:
x md = k satd x md 0
(18)
x mq = k satq x mq 0
Saturation depending on magnitude of magnetizing flux:
m = ( d + xl id )2 + ( q + xl iq )2
(19)
The saturation of the mutual reactance xmq in the q- axis can not be measured. Thus the characteristic is
assumed to be similar to the one of the d-axis. For the round rotor machine the saturation is equal in d- and qaxis. In the salient rotor machine the characteristic is weighted by the ratio xq/xd.

csat
Saturated magnetizing reactances applied to all formulas (5),(6),(7) and (12),(13),(14). Saturation in subtransient
reactances is not considered.
The saturation of the leakage reactance is not included in the model. This saturation is a current saturation, i.e.
high currents after short-circuits will lead to a saturation effect of the leakage reactance xl. Here it is common
practice to use unsaturated values only.
Synchronous Generator

General Description
Although to neglect this type of saturation may lead to an underestimation of the short-circuit currents. Hence
there is a way to model this effect explicitly. This saturation is an effect, which influences the SC current only in
the first milliseconds, i.e. it can be assumed to be a subtransient effect.
For the definition of the input parameter in the PowerFactory model please refer to section 1.2.2.
u d = rs id xq'' iq + u d''
(23)
u q = rs iq + xd'' id + u q''
with:
u d'' = n q''
(24)
u q'' = n d''
Assumption that magnetizing voltage is approx. equal to magnetizing flux (for saturation):
m um =
(u
+ rs id xl iq ) + (u q + rs iq + xl id )

1.2.2 Saturation
Figure 3 shows the definition of the saturation curve of the mutual reactance. The linear line represents the airgap line indicating the excitation current required overcoming the reluctance of the air-gap. The degree of
saturation is the deviation of the open loop characteristic from the air-gap line.

Additionally there is the variable dfrotx available at each generator, which is indicating the maximum value of
dfrot for all generators in the system. This variable can assist you to indicate, if a generator is falling out of step
with respect to the reference machine angle.
