Thus the model can be Abstract-This paper describes the implementation of a three-immediately used for steady-state (load flow) analysis for both phase, phase-domain induction motor model for asymmetric load transmission and distribution systems. The model optionally flow and quasi-steady state analysis. The mathematical model is includes rotor parameters that are speed-dependent and vary based on the use of linear and quadratic equations, reducing es oto eterat are sped-dpenen andfvar therefore the system nonlinearity to at most second degree.

Augmentation of the possible motor design (NEMA designs A, B, C and D). A model with appropriate dynamic equations allows its use in parameter estimation methodology is also presented that allows quasi-steady state analysis, as well, with practically very little the motor model identification using the slip-torque and slip-model modification, which enables capturing dynamic events current motor characteristic. The estimation procedure and the model performance for both steady-state and dynamic analysis inesystem. are demonstrated with some simple numerical examples. One of the main problems with induction motor Index Terms-Induction motor model, Load flow analysis, representation is the unavailability of parameter values toParameter estimation, Quasi-steady-state analysis, Three-phase construct accurate models. This is one of the reasons motors modeling are not usually explicitly represented in system studies. The issue of induction motor parameter estimation has been addressed by several researchers [9]- [24]. In many of these I. INTRODUCTION cases high accuracy is demanded in the parameter T HIS paper addresses the issue of induction motor determination, when the problem is viewed from the electric modeling and model estimation for power system analysis machinery point of view [9]-[16]. However, when load studies. Load modeling in power systems is of great modeling is concerned for power system analysis applications importance, for both steady-state and dynamic analysis, and (like load flow analysis, stability analysis, dynamic simulation has been addressed extensively in literature [1][2][3][4][5][6][7][8]. Induction or power system protection coordination) the level of accuracy motors constitute the most significant part of industrial load needed is considerably less, of the order of 10-15% [17]. Field and their performance has a considerable impact on the measurements after specific tests can be used for accurate behavior of a power system. Nevertheless, power system motor model estimation, however such test are usually analysis studies usually refrain from explicitly representing difficult or impossible to perform in actual, operational induction motor loads, an...
