Dynamic Models
Motor dynamic models are required for dynamic motor starting, transient stability, and generator starting
studies. Generator dynamic models and some control units (exciters, governors, and Power System
Stabilizier [PSS]) are only needed for transient stability studies. In addition, load torque characteristics for
different types of models are required for both motor starting and transient stability studies. ETAP
provides a variety of induction and synchronous machine models, plus extensive libraries for exciters,
governors, and PSS for you to select from to perform your studies.
For dynamic motor acceleration studies, only the motors that are accelerated need to have a dynamic
model, i.e., generators, exciters, and governors are not dynamically modeled. For transient stability
studies, all generators, exciters, and governors are dynamically modeled. Motors, which have dynamic
models and are designated to be dynamically modeled from the study case, will be dynamically modeled.
For generator starting and frequency dependent transient stability studies, all generators, exciters,
governors, and motors have to use frequency dependent models.
This chapter describes different types of machine models, machine control unit models, load models, and
explains their applications in motor starting and transient stability studies. It also describes tools that
assist you to select those models and specify model parameters.
The induction machine models section describes five different types of induction machine models and the
frequency dependent forms of these models. Those are Circuit Models (Single1, Single2, DBL1, DBL2)
and Characteristic Curve Models. In the synchronous machine models section, descriptions of five
different types of synchronous machine models and the frequency dependent forms of these models are
given. Those are Equivalent Model, Transient Model for round-rotor machines, Sub-transient Model for
round-rotor machines, Transient Model for salient-pole machines, and Sub-transient Model for salient-
pole machines. Motor starting and transient stability studies also require the utility tie system to be
modeled as an equivalent machine. A description of the modeling of power grid systems is found in the
section Power Grid. Different types of exciter and automatic voltage regulator (AVR) models, including
standard IEEE models and vendor special models, are defined in the Exciter and AVR Models section.
Governor-turbine models that are also based on both IEEE standards and vendors product manuals are
listed in the Governor-turbine Models section. PSS models that are also based on both IEEE standards
and vendors product manuals are listed in the PSS Models section. Finally, different types of load
models are described in the Mechanical Load section.

24.1 Induction Machine
ETAP provides five different types of induction machine models, which cover all commonly, used
induction machine designs. These models are:
Single1 CKT Model
Single2 CKT Model
DBL1 CKT Model
DBL2 CKT Model
Characteristic Curve Model
Frequency Dependent Model
In general, Single1, Single2, DBL1, and DBL2 are referred to as CKT (circuit) models, because they all
use equivalent circuits to represent an induction machine stator and rotor windings. These models can be
used for both dynamic motor starting and transient stability studies. Characteristic models use machine
performance curves specified at some discrete points to represent an induction machine. It can be used for
dynamic motor starting studies, but is not suitable for transient stability studies.
Note that the models described in this section are also employed by synchronous motors for motor
starting studies since, during starting, synchronous motors behave similarly to induction motors. This
modeling procedure is approved by the industrial standards.

24.1.5 Characteristic Curve Model
This model provides the capability to model induction machines directly based on machine performance

purposes.
Curves specified in this model include:

In transient stability studies, the frequency dependent models of induction machines are used. ETAP
provides the frequency dependent forms for the four types of circuit models (Single1, Single2, DBL1,

models (Single1, Single2, DBL1, DBL2) are the same as the corresponding regular induction machine

General Concept of Modeling Synchronous Machines
A synchronous machine is, in general, modeled by an equivalent internal voltage source and its equivalent
resistance and reactance. The equivalent internal voltage source is connected to the machine internal bus
behind the equivalent resistance and reactance, as shown in the diagram.
Depending on the structure (round-rotor or salient-pole) and design (with or without damper windings),
the equivalent internal voltage and equivalent impedance are calculated differently. These differences are
reflected in differential equations describing different types of synchronous machine models.
Parks transformation is adopted and the following notations and symbols are employed in the differential
equations for synchronous machine models:
Efd = Term representing the field voltage acting along the quadrature-axis. It is
calculated from the machine excitation system
f() = Function to account machine saturation effect
Eq = Quadrature-axis component of the voltage behind the equivalent machine
subtransient reactance
Ed = Direct-axis component of the voltage behind the equivalent machine subtransient
reactance
Eq = Quadrature-axis component of the voltage behind the equivalent machine
transient reactance
Ed = Direct-axis component of the voltage behind the equivalent machine transient
reactance
Eq = Quadrature-axis component of the voltage behind the equivalent machine
reactance
Ed = Direct-axis component of the voltage behind the equivalent machine reactance
Ei = Voltage proportional to field current
It = Machine terminal current
Id = Direct-axis component of machine terminal current
Iq = Quadrature-axis component of machine terminal current

24.3 Power Grid
For motor starting and transient stability studies, it is required to model a power grid (utility system) with
an equivalent machine. Due to the fact that a power grid is generally considered as an interfacing point to
the power grid whose voltage and frequency are supported by a larger system and unlikely to change, it is
valid to assume this equivalent machine has a constant internal voltage source and an infinite inertia. Thus
the power grid is modeled in ETAP with the following Thevenin equivalent:
where Ei is calculated from the initial terminal bus voltage and Req and Xeq are from positive sequence R
and X of the Power Grid Editor, as shown below:

This diagram shows the output of the AVR is applied to the exciter after a saturation function SE is
subtracted from it. The exciter parameter KE represents the setting of the shunt field rheostat when a self-
excited shunt field is used.
It should be noted that there is a dependency between exciter ceiling Efdmax, AVR ceiling VRmax,
exciter saturation SE and exciter constant KE. These parameters are related by the following equation (the
sign of KE is negative for a self-excited shunt field):

24.7 Mechanical Load
For accelerating motors in motor starting studies and dynamically modeled motors in transient stability
studies, the connecting mechanical loads should be modeled for the calculation to determine the motors
acceleration and deceleration characteristics. Mechanical loads are modeled based on load torque curves
either curves based or point based as shown in the following screen capture:
When Polynomial type of load toque curve is selected, the following editor is available to select the
mechanical load model.
A load curve is expressed by a third order generic polynomial equation:

When Curve type of load toque curve is selected, the following editor is available to select the mechanical
load model. Curve type can be used to create any custom shaped load torque curve that cannot be
expressed in the form of a polynomial equation.
ETAP provides a number of the most common load models for you to choose from. Load torque curves
can be added to the ETAP Motor Load Library and are then accessible from the Load Model pages in the
