Why Models?
Computer models used in all phase of power system engineering:
PlanningDesignMaintenance and OperatiosAssessment and Forensic or Root Cause AnalysisImprovement and Enhancement
Engineering recommendations are based on specific results for the system under consideration, not general rules

Primary Technical Tools
Power Flow Determines voltages, element loading for specified generation and demanMost basic power system engineering toolA variety of tools are used, but PSS/E and PSLF most common
Dynamic SimulationUsed to show how large power system moves from state to stateRequires detailed models of dynamic elementsSuitable for simulations of very large power systemsPSS/E, PSLF are the standards fro U.S. transmission entities
Electromagnetic TransientsDetailed studies of electrical, mechanical, and control interactionsVery detailed models of all power system elementsDetailed nature of modeling prevents application to large power systemsExamples: EMTP, ATP, PSCAD

ERCOT Model Development Project - History
Discussions of need for better wind plant models in system studies at least as far back as August, 2001
Ongoing issues with forced curtailmentRecognition that curtailments have linkage to models
Project scope developed in early 2002RFP issued April, 2002Project awarded June, 2002Project kick off August 1, 2002Project completion September, 2003

Project Objectives
Develop models for four categories of commercial wind turbines appropriate for:
Steady state analysis (power flow)Transient stabilitySmall signal stabilityStabilities studies including long and short-term dynamics
Validate models with available event data from field measurementsDocument and deliver as “User Models” for PSS/E
![Page 7: Wind Turbine and Plant Modeling: Status and Needs](https://reader031.fdocuments.in/reader031/viewer/2022030320/5869422c1a28abd1568beb6f/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
General Approach1. Develop detailed models for individual wind turbines in
PSCAD/EMTDC
2. Execute cases with detailed models and analyze results
3. Use simulation results to reduce the order of the turbine models for the types of events to be studied
4. Construct reduced-order models in PSS/E
5. Compare PSS/E and PSCAD/EMTDC results; refine models if necessary
6. Validate PSS/E models against field measurements

Validation of ERCOT Dynamic Models
Actual measurements are ultimate measure of model validityQuantities of interest
Terminal characteristics – voltage current, P, QMechanical – speed, pitchWind speed
ChallengesBoth individual turbine and plant level measurements desirable for computer model validationNot feasible to collect both here due to budget and logistical constraintsIndividual turbine measurement data hard to come by, even from vendors
Electrical data from interconnect bus best compromise in terms of value and cost
