The Role of EMT Simulation Tools in Operation and Control of Synchronous Generators

Electromagnetic transient (EMT) simulation tools have been extensively used for analysing and studying power systems. The ability of EMT simulation tools to capture non-linearities and high-frequency switching transients is a key factor driving their adoption in the study of modern power systems, which increasingly include power electronic devices [1]-[2]. While the use of such tools is well-established in applications such as HVDC systems and renewable energy, their application in studies related to the operation and protection of assets like generators is less documented.
