dc.description.abstract | For power grid operators, knowing the transient response of the synchronous generators (SGs) included in their grids is important in order to simulate and monitor faults and other contingencies. However, the time constant of the automatic voltage regulator (AVR) and speed governors of SGs are not fast enough to show their transient dynamics in the case of a fault in the grid. This paper presents a fieldwork carried out in more than 60 gas power plants, where the response of their controllers was studied. These power plants are running and supplying electricity to the Spanish grid. The study consists of recording some SG responses in different situations, varying the AVR or the speed governor setpoints while the generator is running at no-load conditions, and also performing load rejection tests, achieving a real fault emulation. Once all the data are gathered, a fitting of the SG parameters is performed by computer simulations using GENSAL, GAST and SEXS models replicating the performed field tests. This work allows us to build an accurate network model for the whole power system and check which plants are having trouble in the case of contingencies in the grid. | es_ES |
