Parameter Determination for Modeling System Transients—Part IV: Rotating Machines

The identification of electrical parameters of rotating machines for simulation of slow(i.e., electromechanical, transients) is not an easy task. Not only have several levels of complexity been proposed for representing the electrical part of a rotating machine, but several data sources can be considered. This paper deals with the calculation of electrical parameters of large synchronous and induction machines. Given the quantity of work produced to date on this subject, the procedures selected are those closely related to what is proposed in current standards or implemented in widely used transients programs. Interested readers are referred to other approaches included in the list of references.
