ST2A
Description
This module is based on the IEEE std 412.5 type ST2A excitation system model [1]. The excitation system uses both terminal current and terminal voltage. The effects of commutation and rectifier loading are account in the model.

Initial Values Mask Parameters
Name | Unit | Description |
Ifd0 | pu | Synchronous machine field current initial value |
Efd0 | pu | Exciter output voltage initial value |
The parameters Ifd0 and Efd0 can be set manually by entering a numerical value. It can also be set automatically, based on load flow calculations, by entering a referenced synchronous machine variable. For instance, if the name of the synchronous machine on which the excitation system is connected is “SM1”:
- If a thermal machine or a hydraulic machine is used, Ifd0 shall be set as “=SM1.IfdInit” multiplied by the synchronous machine parameter Xad = Xd – Xl, and Efd0 shall be set as “=SM1.EfdInit”;
- If a pu standard or pu fundamental machine is used, Ifd0 shall be set as “=SM1.IF_Init” and Efd0 shall be set as "=SM1.EFD_Init".
The HYPERSIM simulation option Set Initial Conditions must be checked for the automatic initialization to work properly.
Inputs and Outputs and Signals Available for Monitoring
Inputs
Name | Description | Unit |
---|---|---|
Voel | Overexcitation limiter output* | pu |
Vc1 | Signal proportional to compensated terminal voltage If the Load Compensator block is not used upstream from the exciter block, then Vc1 is equal to Vt (main alternator terminal voltage) | pu |
Vuel | Underexcitation limiter output* | pu |
Vref | Voltage regulator reference voltage | pu |
Vs | Is defined as the output voltage of a Power System Stabilizer (PSS) [1]. | pu |
Ifd | Synchronous machine field current** | pu |
Id | Active component of generator terminal current or component from load compensator | pu |
Iq | Reactive component of generator terminal current or component from load compensator | |
Vd | Active component of generator terminal voltage or component from load compensator | |
Vq | Reactive component of generator terminal voltage or component from load compensator |
*Vuel and Voel is normally an input to this excitation system but the user has the option to use a fixed constant value directly in the mask by choosing internal in the mask option.
*A switch allows the users to select UEL input locations (Vuel)
- Summation point ( voltage error )
- Take-over at voltage regulator input
**If a Synch. Machine (Hydraulic or Thermal) from the Network Machines and Generators library is used, the machine observable Ifd must be multiplied by the synchronous machine parameter Xad = Xd – Xl prior to its input to the exciter. This multiplication is not needed if a Synchronous Machine (pu Standard) or (pu Fundamental) is used.
