25 Example of PMU Measured Response vs. RTCA and TSAT Simulated Response 25

26 RTCA Assumptions Peak s RTCA mimics governor power flow by WSM defined unit participation factors (UPF) (e.g. Pmax/100) Peak s RTCA simulates the post-transient time point (before AGC action but after initial governor response, ~20s) Peak s RTCA allows automatic capacitor switching for designated devices Peak s RTCA allows unit voltage regulation 26

27 Generator Response Basics Frequency decline arrested by system inertia and frequency response of generators 0-20 seconds system response driven by generator governor response AGC kicks in around 20s- 30s Peak s RTCA is simulating pre-agc, roughly seconds after event 27

28 PV Tripping Event Paloverde Unit 1 tripped rejecting ~1300 MW COI flow increased from 3,800 MW to 4,250 MW at 20s, and 4,300 MW in 50s after the disturbance starts per PMU recording Initial WSM simulation of PV unit 1 trip results in COI flow of 4,072 MW (a gap of 180 MW) 28

29 Actual COI Flow 5-min Variation (PMU) After the event, COI flow experienced Primary response for initial 8-10s. After that AGC started to re-dispatch generation 29

30 TSAT/RTCA Simulation with PV#1 Tripping COI SE TSAT Flow Basecase Basecase PMU_COI_P TSAT_COI_P PMU_MALIN_FREQ TSAT_MALIN_FREQ CA The simulation starting point is decent i.e Hz and 57 MW COI flow off to PMU Frequency gap expands to 0.03 Hz at 10s of simulation COI flow gap expands to ~ 150 MW between PMU data and TSAT at the same point

31 RTCA Comparison Observations Comparison of RTCA simulation and PMU: o ~175 MW COI flow difference at 20s Participation factors not accurately driving unit response Mismatch between baseload flag in WSM and actual governor blocked 31

32 TSAT Comparison Observations Comparison of TSAT simulation and PMU: o ~150 MW COI flow off at 20s simulation because SE solved 22 MW less than SCADA measurement TSAT basecase solved 57 MW less than SE case Mismatch between baseload flag in WSM and actual governor blocked Not model PV#1 Aux load (65MW) transfer (~10MW COI flow impact) 32

33 EMS Governor Power Flow Model Review Unit Baseload Flag vs Unit AGC Flag 33 o 1380 units with baseload in *.dyd file of them are mapped with individual WSM unit IDs 96% of gen capacity mapped o Presently 800 WSM units set AGC flag off o As RTCA is to simulate governor power flow response other than AGC gen dispatch Unit AGC flag Off shall match unit Baseload flag set AGC/UPF model in WSM may not mimic primary response accurately

34 RTCA Studies on PV# 1 Outage Use different UPF setting as follows Normal UPF: UPF=Pmax/100 Short UPF: UPF=Pmax/100 or 0 if Baseload flag is set or H=0 Long UPF: UPF=Pmax/100 or 0 if Baseload flag is set Only in-service units with UPF>0 and AGC flag on participate in governor response 34

35 RTCA Studies on PV#1 Outage (COI Base flow=3770 MW) RTCA solves COI flow with PV #1 tripping (tripping 1300 MW PV gen) as follows Short UPF: 4131 MW (best performance) Normal UPF (current setting): 4072 MW Long UPF: 4104 MW RTCA solved COI flows matching PMU recording closely with Short UPF (both unit Baseload flag and Inertia included) 35

36 System Model Validation Tasks Evaluate unit participation factors used in the WSM Investigate TSAT basecase COI flow difference compared to SE basecase COI flow o Impact by small pseudo loads, distributed swing buses Continue to improve unit mapping between WSM and *.dyd files (hundreds of units not mapped yet) Continue to validate and clean up unit baseload flag and inertia constant settings 36

37 Open Discussion What other model validation activities are effective? TOP practices to verify model accuracy? 37

38 Other Model Resources has many resources available to TOPs and BAs: o Peak s WSM o ICCP point mapping to WSM o WSM oneline diagrams o RTCA results 38
