Hi EMTP team

first thanks for your great software

I found a mismatching between description of "Esm (kJ/MVA)" in MMC block and what really is in EMTP.

description is: Capacitor energy in each Submodule (SM) per MVA

but when check script file of MMC, you will find that  it is the sum of the all sub-modules capacitor energy of MMC per MVA

maybe it seems less important but it will confuse the user.

Can you create an example file using the Micro Grid library?
The example files with DFIG and PV are very helpful, but I would like to integrate the battery model.

Hi,

I am looking to model Thyristor Controlled Series Compensation (TCSC) for the purpose of subsynchronous resonance study.

I don't know how to simulate TCSC on EMTP software.

Any help would be greatly appreciated

Hello,

I'm dealing with fast transient from lighning strikes.

One of my Flashover switches flashes over at a voltage which is much lower than its set flashover voltage.

This seems to be related to calculation step, as the smaller the step, the closer the flashover is to Vflash.

Nontheless, the flashover takes place (significantly) before the voltage reaches its Vflash value. Is this because the flashover also depends on voltage derivative?
 

Thank you so much for any help in understanding what's happening in the model.

Best regards
