Same modeling with same data has been done in DIgSILENT and NEPLAN
Study case 1:
3 phase Short circuit will happen at BUS-G2 at t=0.1 sec and short circuit will be cleared at t=0.2 sec
The issue is to see if voltage of system motor can be recovered or not?( It should recover easily)
Figure 2: Voltages of Buses during fault and after fault, Results by using ETAP transient stability engine, static load amount is 1000 KVA
Figure 3: Voltages of Buses during fault and after fault, Results by using DIgSILENT transient stability engine, static load amount is 1000 KVA
Figure 4: Voltages of Buses during fault and after fault, Results by using NEPLAN transient stability engine, static load amount is 1000 KVA
Observation 1
As we can see by comparing three graphs of NEPLAN, DIgSILENT and ETAP , we can see that:
Figure (2): in ETAP, the voltage of Motor bus (BUS-M), will collapse to 52 % after removing the fault
Figure (3): in DIgSILENT, the voltage of Motor bus (BUS-M) will be recovered to 99 %
Figure (4): in NEPLAN, the voltage of Motor bus (BUS-M) will be recovered only to 102 %
Study case 2:
The issue is to see if by increasing amount of static load, what will happen to amount of the buses voltage after
removing fault, so we increase static load amount to 5000 KVA and 9,900 KVA and 12,000 KVA and then will run the
previous scenario: 3 phase Short circuit at bus no. BUS-G2 at t=0.1 sec and short circuit will be cleared at t=0.2 sec
Figure 5: Voltages of Buses during fault and after fault, Results by using ETAP transient stability engine, static load amount is 5000 KVA
Figure 6: Voltages of Buses during fault and after fault, Results by using ETAP transient stability engine, static load amount is 9900 KVA
Figure 7: Voltages of Buses during fault and after fault, Results by using ETAP transient stability engine, static load amount is 12,000 KVA
If we compare figure no. 2 and figure no. 5, 6 and 7, we can see that by increasing the amount of static load, the
amount of voltage will be more and this is very strange!!!!!!???????
But if we check results of DIgSILENT and Neplan, we can see that by increasing amount of static load, the voltage will
be less, that is correct.
If we refer to the dynamic models of motors and generators in ETAP software and compare with DIgSILENT/NEPLAN,
we can see that dynamic modeling in DIgSILENT/NEPLAN are more accurate with more details than ETAP, also in
ETAP, some parameters has been ignored and also some estimation methods has been used in modeling and
calculation engine, this is the reason of difference between results of ETAP and DIgSILENT/NEPLAN.
Following shows the difference between results of ETAP , DIgSILENT and NEPLAN in case No.1
