Single-Phase Voltage Source Model 2

 

Description

This component models a 1-phase AC or DC voltage source, where source impedance may be specified as ideal (i.e. infinite bus).

 

This source uses the same algorithm as the Three-Phase Voltage Source Model 2, and may be controlled through either fixed, internal parameters or variable external signals.  

External Connections

You can connect a slider to these external inputs for a convenient runtime manual adjustment, or use a control system output for dynamic adjustment.

Choice

 

Select Yes to automatically ground the source

 

 

 

 

 

Specified Parameters

 

Choice

 

Select Behind Source Impedance or At the Terminal.  The 'At the Terminal' option should be selected if the steady-state load flow terminal data is known (i.e. V, P and Q).  'Behind Source Impedance' should be selected if only E, q are known.  See Data Format for Internal Control for more details.
