Automated state model generation algorithm for power circuits and systems

Abstract

A new approach of automatically generating state-space models of power circuits and systems is presented. In this approach, the composite system state equations are established algorithmically given the standard node incidence matrix and elementary branch data (e.g. resistances, inductances, back emfs). The resulting state equations can be solved using a variety of numerical techniques or commercially available computer simulation programs. An example system consisting of a three-phase generator and rectifier load is used to illustrate this approach. Experimental verification is also provided.
