MODELLING
Loadflow
In load flow calculations, a synchronous generator with cos phi control is represented as a negative load.
Pload = Pref
and
Qload = Pref * √ ( 1 - cos(φ)² ) / cos(φ) (absorb)
or
Qload = - Pref * √ ( 1 - cos(φ)² ) / cos(φ) (supply)
Motor start
The starting current to rated current ratio is equal to 1/(Rg+Xd").
IEC 60909 and Fault analysis
Modelling of the synchronous generator with cos-phi control is identical to modelling of a synchronous generator with voltage control.
IEC 60909 minimum short circuit calculation without synchronous motors
In the calculation of Ik"min according to IEC 60909 the partial short circuit current from synchronous motors is neglected. This is in accordance with neglecting the partial short circuit current of asynchronous motors.
