IEEE OEL4C model

Context

This overexcitation limiter model first appeared in the IEEE Std 421.5-2016 (of Electrical & Engineers, 2016).

Model use, assumptions, validity domain and limitations

This model is associated to one of the voltage regulators (types AC, DC, ST) defined by the IEEE Std 421.5-2016 (of Electrical & Engineers, 2016).

The model provides an overexcitation limiter signal for the purpose of summation : the overexcitation limiter signal is added to the stator voltage deviation from the reference, thus being taken into account in the calculation of the excitation voltage.

Model inputs and output

The input signals are :

Variable Description Unit
QGenPu Reactive power generated by the synchronous machine pu (base SnRef)
QRefPu Reference reactive power pu (base SnRef)

They both follow the generator convention.

The output signal is UOelPu, the overexcitation limiter voltage in pu (base UNom).

Model parameters

Parameter Description Unit Value
Ki OEL integral gain pu 1
Kp OEL proportional gain pu 1
tDelay OEL integral time constant s 20
VMinPu OEL minimum output pu (base UNom) -0.2
