Abstract
This paper proposes the use of advanced generator models in the studies of Korean power systems to accurately represent the dynamic behaviors of synchronous generators and thus to achieve a better match between transient stability simulations and reality. In the paper, GENTPF and GENTPJ models are described which have appeared over the last decade in the WECC system. Those advanced models are compared with conventional synchronous generator models such as GENROU and GENSAL, which have been used in dynamic studies of Korean power systems. The advancements are investigated by recognizing the differences in block diagram, saturation modeling, and network interface equations. Simulation comparisons between conventional and advanced models in Korean power systems are then provided. Clear distinctions identified in the simulation results demonstrate the necessity of the use of advanced generator models in Korean power system.
