Abstract
This paper compares the transient response of a finite element salient pole synchronous generator model connected to an infinite network bus to that of a system model based on an equivalent circuit representation of the machine. The characteristics and operating conditions of the two models are made equal as far as possible by thoroughgoing initiation and by using the finite element model for estimation of the circuit model parameters. It is found that the circuit model underestimates the stiffness and damping properties of the machine in comparison with the electromagnetic model, which largely is believed to be attributable to inadequate representation of the rotor circuits. The results raise questions regarding some common applications of equivalent circuit models.
