Simulating electric machine performance

Abstract

This paper presents details of a computer program EMSP (Electric Machine Simula tion Program), which provides the capabil ity to simulate the steady state and dynamic performance of five fundamental devices: the transformer; the dc machine; the polyphase induction machine; the polyphase synchronous machine; and the single phase induction machine. A power factor correction analysis is also provided. EMSP constructs its machine simulation models from approximating functions derived from ANSI/IEEE/NEMA standards, from the author's own expertise, from information provided in manufacturer's application guides, and from user-provided data.
