A B S T R A C T - This paper presents detailed three-phasecogenerator and transformer models for analyzing a large-scaledistribution system. The cogenerator model presented here issignificant in that it will represent the inherent generator phaseimbalance due to distribution system imbalance. The cogeneratorscan be synchronous or induction and can be on either primary orsecondary systems. The transformer models consider the copperand core losses, the winding connection, the phase-shifting betweenprimary and secondary windings, and the off-nominal tapping. Anindividual phase, as opposed to a balanced three-phase,representation was employed. This approach is oriented towardapplications in distribution system operational analysis rather thanplanning analysis. This difference should be properly emphasized.The misuse of the planning oriented method to analyze theoperational behavior of the system will distort the explanation of thecalculated results and lead to incorrect conclusions.
Keywords: Cogenerator model, Transformer model, Power flow,Short circuit, System loss, Contingency, Distribution system,Injected current, System imbalance, Subtransient reactance.
JNTRODUCTION
It has becoming increasingly clear that utilities need demand-side management (DSM). The least-cost planning as well asdemand-side strategies are being widely adopted and mandated(e.g.in New York). Moreover, if current legislative proposals becomelaw(e.g. Tim Worth's Energy Efficiency Act of 1989), mandatesmay apply more universally. Both the DSM and least-cost planningand many other distribution analyses, for example energyconservation and switching recommendation studies, need rigorousoperational-type analysis rather than rough planning-type analysis.The difference between these two types of analyses should be
properly emphasized. The misuse of the planning type method toanalyze the operational behavior of the system will distort theexplanation of the calculated results and lead to incorrectconclusions.
The distribution system is basically unbalanced. Many factorscause system imbalance such as untransposed feeders, conductorbundles, single-phase loads, unequal three-phase loads, single anddouble-phase "radial spurs" on primary feeders. Furthermore, evenif the network is balanced, asymmetrical faults introduce imbalance.To avoid significant error arising from inherent system imbalance,rigorous distribution system analysis using detailed componentmodels is required.

The purpose of this paper is to provide mathematicalcomponent models for this kind of rigorous distribution systemanalysis. The components are modeled by their equivalent circuitsin terms of inductance, capacitance, resistance, and injected current.The form of the models is dependent on the type of study to beperformed. For example, in power flow and short circuit analyses,the same transformer and conductor models are used, but thecogenerator and load models are different.
To develop such a distribution analysis system, the followingcomponent models were determined to be necessary: conductors,cogenerators, transformers, demands or loads, and capacitors.Other components such as network protectors, fuses, automaticswitches, etc., although necessary in contingency analysis, are notimportant in power flow and short circuit studies, and therefore, arenot presented.
Of these required models, conductors, capacitors, and
demands have previously developed standard implementations forthe Gauss solution approach[l-31. This was not the case forthe transformer and cogenerator models, which required anadditional research effort to design and implement new models forthe Z B ~ ~nd other solution methods. Hence, in this paper only thecogenerator and transformer models are introduced. For detaileddiscussion of feeder models for both coupled and uncoupled feederssee references[l] and [2]. For a discussion of the load model used,see reference [3]. These component models may require little, if anymodification to apply them to other solution techniques.
COGENERATOR MO DELS
Cogeneration is an effective means of increasing energyefficiency and reducing energy costs. The cogeneration processputs wasted heat to work. It saves energy by using the reject heat ofone process as an energy input to a subsequent process, effectivelyusing the same fuel. The favorable economics of cogeneration
enable it to play a substantial role in energy development in variousparts of the world[4-61.One utility seeing the effects of these favorable economics is
Consolidated Edison Company of New York, Inc. Con Edisonanticipates the addition of more cogenerators to their system in thefuture, and is developing analysis tools to facilitate the study of theirimpact.
The impact of cogenerators upon the existing system must bestudied because their contribution to the power flow and short-circuit current of the system is significant, When a request is madeto generate electricity by using cogenerators in parallel with a utilitysystem, electric distribution engineers need to study the impact thatthe proposed cogenerators will have upon existing facilities. Thereis currently no capability for studying the effects of cogeneratorsupon distribution systems, especially upon unbalanced distributionsystems.
This paper introduces new cogenerator models for three-phasedistribution power flow and short-circuit studies. The cogeneratormodel used in power flow studies can also be used for system lossand contingency analyses. It is significant because it represents the
generator phase imbalance due to inherent distribution systemimbalance. A program called "Generalized Distribution AnalysisSystem" (GDAS) has been developed to simulate a large scaleunbalanced distribution system. This program can be used toevaluate the performance of a distribution system containing parallelcogenerators[7-81.

Cogenerator M o u
A preliminary investigation of typical voltage control systemsfor synchronous cogenerators was done. According to theinvestigation results, synchronous cogenerators are not controlled tomaintain constant voltage, they are controlled to maintain constantpower and constant power factor. Furthermore, utilities may requirethat cogeneration operators provide such controls. For example,Con Edison, under some conditions, may require a power factor
controller to maintain a constant power factor on the synchronousgenerator by controlling the voltage regulator. The power factorcontroller must be capable of maintaining a power factor within plusor minus one percent at any set point. As a result, the synchronouscogenerators can be represented approximately as constant complexpower devices in the power flow study, i.e. cogenerators can berepresented as P-Q specified devices in the power flow calculation.
As for induction cogenerators, their reactive power will varywith the terminal voltage change. Thus, the reactive powerconsumption of the induction cogenerators is not exactly constant.For simplification, the induction cogenerators can be treated as P-Qspecified devices because the bus voltages are near 1.0 p.u. insteady state cases. As a result, both the synchronous and inductiongenerators can be represented as P-Q specified devices, i.e. constantcomplex power devices.
The cogenerators are modeled as an internal voltage "EI"behind the proper reactance; the generator subtransient reactanceXd"[9,10] as shown in the Figure 1. This is the Theveninequivalent circuit of a cogenerator. This model is different from thetraditional power flow generator bus (PV Bus) which is represented
by specified injected powers at a specified voltage. Using theFigure 1model, injected power of each phase, under an unbalancedterminal voltage condition, can be calculated in detail.

power flow studies the admittance matrix Gbc otal real power PT
and total reactive power Qr are held constant. In short circuit
studies the admittance matrix ydcbc and the internal balanced current
source 11 are held constant. Although some variables are heldconstant during the iterative process, the voltages that are dependenton the system conditionwill change at each iteration. Therefore, inboth power flow and short circuit studies, the injected currents will
change due to the voltage change at the buses where the cogeneratoris connected.

of modem electric power systems, highly developed transformermodels are not employed in system studies. It is the intention of thispaper to introduce a transformer model and its implementationmethod so that large-scale unbalanced distribution system problemssuch as power flow, short circuit, system loss, and contingencystudies, can be solved.
Recognizing the fact that the system is unbalanced, theconventional transformer.models, based on a balanced three phaseassumption, can no longer be considered suitable. This is done withjustifiable reason. For example in the widely used, delta-grounded
wye connection of distribution step-down transformers, the positiveand negative sequence voltages are shifted in opposite directions,this phase shift must be included in the model to properly simulatethe effects of the system imbalance.
Recent interest in unbalanced system phenomena has alsoproduced a transformer model adaptable to the unbalanced problemwhich is well outlined in [12]. Further information about this modelmay also be found in [2,13,14]. The model developed thus far canbe applied directly to distribution power flow and short-circuitanalyses. However, it is still not accurate for system loss analysisbecause the transformer core loss contribution to total system loss issignificant[l5,16]. To calculate total system loss, the core loss ofthe transformer must be included in the model. The completetransformer model combines the unbalanced and loss models from[12] and [15] in order to integrate system loss analysis in powerflow or short-circuit studies.
It is important to note that the unbalanced transformer modelderived by Dillon in reference [12] cannot be applied directly toeither the factorized Y B ~ ~r direct inverse YB,,~ ethod because ofnumerical considerations. For some connections such as grounded
wye-delta, delta- grounded wye, these models make the system Y B , , ~singular. Therefore, the application of the factorized or directinverse methods becomes impossible. To solve this problem,this paper introduces an implementation method in which artificialinjection currents are used to make the system Y B ~ ~onsingular. Atwelve-bus sample system is used to demonstrate the models and theeffects of various transformer connections on a distribution system.

As used in Reference [15], a three-phase transformer isrepresented by two blocks shown in Figure 7. One block represents
the per unit leakage admittance matrix Y+bc, and the other block

Figure7 Overall Proposed Transformer Model
The presence of the admittance matrix block is the majordistinction between the proposed model and the model used in[15,16]. In the proposed model, Dillon's model is integrated withthe admittance matrix part. As a result, the copper loss, core loss,system imbalance, and phase shift characteristics are taken intoaccount. The implementation method is introduced in the followingsections.
Core LQSS
The core loss of a transformer is approximated by shunt coreloss functions on each phase of the secondary terminal of thetransformer. These core loss approximation functions are based onthe results of EPRI load modeling research [3] which state that realand reactive power losses in the transformer core can be expressed
as functions of the terminal voltage of the transformer. Transformercore loss functions represented in per unit at the system power baseare[15,16]:
(A [VI + B eclvl') (12)P (P.U.) = KVA Rating

is the voltage magnitude in per unit.It must be noted that the coefficients; A, B, C, D, E, and F; are
machine dependent constants. For the current research project, corelosses are represented by the functions and typical constants shownabove.
Admittance MatriK
The admittance matrix part of the proposed three-phasetransformer models follows the methodology derived by Dillon[l2],but a novel implementation is introduced herein.
For simplification, a single three-phase transformer isapproximated by three identical single-phase ransformers connectedappropriately. This assumption is not essential, however, itsimplifies the ensuing derivation and explanation. Based upon thisassumption, the characteristic submatrices used in forming the three-phase transformer admittance matrices can be developed. The
matrices for the nine common connections of three-phasetransformers are given in Table 1.

and Y t is the per-unit leakage admittance.
If the transformer has an off-nominal tap ratio a:p between the
primary and secondary windings, where CL and 0 are tappings on theprimary and secondary sides, respectively, then the submatrices aremodified as follows:
a) Divide the self admittance matrix of the primary by a2

In Figure 13, the equivalent circuit of grounded wye-deltatransformer, there are three elements ( Y l ) connected to ground.These three elements must be represented by current injectionsbecause the Z B ~ ~ethod (i.e. factorized Y B ~ ~ethod) is used to
solve the system equations for both power flow and short circuitstudies. After replacing these three admittances by current
injections, the system admittance matrix ( Y B ~ )ecomes singular, ifthe grounded wye side is the end bus or swing bus. To avoid thisdifficulty three additional admittances (-Y3) are replaced by currentinjections.
In the GDAS program, a two-step superposition method is usedto implement the ZB,,~method. In the fiist step, there are no loadsapplied to the system and hence no current flows, therefore, thethree Y 2 elements in the delta side are represented by currentinjections. As a result, only the equivalent lines between theprimary and secondary sides in the same phase are used to form thesystem admittance or impedance matrices (YB"~r Z B ~ ~ ) .ll otherequivalent admittances are represented by their equivalent injectedcurrents.

Rigid cogenerator and transformer models were introduced inthis paper. Based upon these detailed models, a program, entitled"Generalized Distribution Analysis System (GDAS)," wassuccessfully developed and tested.
The effect of a 400 KVA cogenerator on a 12-bus sampledistribution system[7,11] and a large, 5 MW + j 2 MVARcogenerator on a large, 5000 individual phase bus, distributionsystem was studied. The results show that the cogenerator has asignificant impact on the system. For example, the direction of thepower flow of many branches, especially those near thecogenerator,are changed. This change will affect the protection andcoordination strategy. Furthermore, the voltage profile, systemloss, and power factor are totally different. Hence, to analyze thedistribution system in detail, the three-phase cogenerator model, aswell as the three-phase system representation, are important.
In the future, perhaps very large cogenerators will be used indistribution systems. The cogenerators may be can maintain theterminal voltage constant. In those cases, a big cogenerator bus canbe represented as specified P-V buses. However, for small capacitycogenerators the models presented here can still be applied.
The transformer model has also been successfully tested, fromwhich an important conclusion can be drawn: the effects of thetransformer connections on the distribution system are significantexcept for the balanced power flow study. This means that for thetransmission system, if the system is or very nearly balanced, thetransformers can be modeled as a simple Grounded Wye-GroundedWye connection. Otherwise, for the unbalanced transmission andmost distribution systems, the transformers must be modeled in
greater detail. Core loss, system imbalance, and phase shiftproblems should be taken into account to improve the reliability ofthe results.

W.H. KERSTING, New Mexico State University,
Las Cruces, NM 88003. This paper is a very
interesting paper to engineers involved with
distribution system operations and analysis.
The authors model the three-phase
cogenerator as a negative constant P,Q load.
That is not a new idea and is used by many
three-phase power-flow programs.
My major concern with the paper concerns
the models of the transformers. I am
disappointed that the authors do not show in
any of the figures the currents that will be
used in the current vectors for the various
matrix equations. For the wye connected
transformers I assume they are directed into
the wye. For a delta connected transformer,
are the currents the line currents or the
actual transformer currents (delta currents)
For the grounded wye - grounded wye bank I was
able to use Equation 15 and assuming primary
and secondary voltages and transformer
impedances, I was able to compute the primary
and secondary line currents correctly. When I
tried to apply Equation 23 again with assumed
primary and secondary voltages, I was not
successful in computing realistic primary and
secondary currents. In applying Equation 23
it is not clear if the secondary voltages
should be the line-to-line or line-to-neutral
voltges. It is also not clear what base
voltage to use for the line-to-line voltagesshown in Figure 12. It is impossible to
follow the equations under Figure 14. It
appears that the authors have somehow come up
with line-to-neutral voltages on the delta
secondary. If I am given the line-to-line
secondary voltages, how do I get the necessary
line-to-neutral voltages to use in the
equations listed under Figure 14?
It would be of great help if the authors
would include in their discussion an example
on how to apply the method for a wye-delta
transformer bank. Specify the voltages and
currents on the primary wye connected side and
demonstrate how the method can be used to
determine the secondary voltages and currents.
If that can’t be done, at least assume primary
and secondary voltages and compute the primary
and secondary currents using Equation 23.
I have to believe that the method and
equations are correct, it is unfortunate that
it is not possible to read the paper and learn
how to apply the method to even a simple
problem.

Closure
T. H. Chen, M. S. Chen, T. Inoue, P. Kotas and E. A. Chebl iThe authors would like to thank the discussor for his interest inthe paper. The questions raised by the discussor will be
answered in turn.
(1) Question about the cogenerator model:
We would like to emphasize that the three-phasecogenerator modeled as a constant p,q device based upon the
investigation results that were done by Consolidated Edison
Company of New York, Inc. is only one of many importantfeatures of the cogenerator model presented in this paper. The
more important one is that it will represent the inherent
generator phase imbalance due to distribution system imbalance.The paper also introduced a cogenerator model for short circuit
study as well as for the load flow study. The cogenerator modelpresented here is much more than only a negative constant p,q
load.
To our knowledge, cogenerator represented as shown inFigure 2 is a new idea. This is the first time cogenerator
modeled for unbalanced distribution load flow study.
(2) Questions about the transformer model:
In this paper, the tedious derivation of the transformermodels was omitted, only the results and its implementation
method were shown. For explanation, a simplified derivation of
the admittance matrix of a grounded wye-delta transformer isshown below:
First, consider the arcuit in Figure D1.

impedances are defined as:
Z l = Rl + joLl

The mutual impedances between branches is now definedas :

Now the branch voltages are related to the node voltages

Where the voltages denoted by letter subscripts are the
node voltages with reference to ground in Figure D1. The node
admittance matrix for these six nodes is defined as
Ynode= Nt YprimNIf the matrix multiplication indicated by the above equation
is carried out, the node admittance matrix becomes:
a b c A B C
o z , - z m - z 1 - z 1 2 z ~ J ~
Now, the node admittance matrix for the transformer can be
written in terms of the primary side short circuit admittance, yt ,defined as:

If the above admittances are already in the per unit system,
then the effective turns ratio, n)(2, must be :

Ynode =
This is equation 23 . In the equation 23 , the Y F as used
to replace ynode.urthermore, for the off-nominal tap ratio
transformer, the equation 23 should be modified to equations 24 .Based on the results, the equivalent circuit for grounded
wye-delta transformer was drawn in Figure 13. From Figure 13 to Figure 14 is very straightforward. The equations under
Figure 14 can be obtained by using simple circuit theory, and canbe proved by inspection. It is clear that the voltages used in
these equations ar e the bus(node) voltages, and the currentsare the bus currents. The relationship of the bus currents and
voltages are shown below:
where
V;bc= IVa V; V, are the three-phase primary voltages;31V:bc= vp vz are the three-phase secondary
voltages;
[a are the three-phase primary currents;
[I: I f are the three-phase secondary currents;
and I is a 6x6 matrix. The I$'] f grounded wye-grounded
wye transformer is shown in Equation 15 and 16 and grounded
wye-delta transformer in Equation 23 and 24 . This pe r unit
leakage admittance matrix Y, is one of the two blocks shownin Figure 7.
Because the bus frame of reference was adopted for the
models and the solution techniques, a set of updated bus
voltages will be obtained each iteration, so it is no problem to
apply the equations under the Figure 14 . Furthermore, becausethe injected currents shown in Figure 14 depend on the bus
voltages, if the voltages change, the currents should be modified.
It means that for each iteration, the injected current should be
updated based on the updated bus voltages or the result will be
incorrect.A two-bus system is given in Figure D 2 as an example.
The system can be represented by its equivalent circuit shown in
Figure D3 and modeled as Figure D 4. After simplification,
Figure D 4 can be represented by Figure D 5. The injected
currents shown in Figure D 5 are the combination of the
contributions of load, and the core loss and some of the
admittance part of the transformer. Al l of the injected currents
are functions of the bus voltages. Therefore the injected currentsshould be updated each iteration until the convergence results
are obtained. For simplification, the transformer in the sample
system is assumed to be nominal, therefore, the a, nd are
equal to 1.0 . Based upon that, the voltages of the swing bus,
abc
bus "p", are assumed to be 1. 0 P.u., three-phase balanced., the
magnitudes and angles of voltages of bus no. "s" each iteration,
and the convergence results are shown in Table D 1. If the
connection of the transformer is changed to delta-grounded wye,and the load is unbalanced, 50% load on phase A, 30% load on
phase B,and 20% load on phase C, the results are shown in
Table D2.

Any device models should be discussed with their solution
technologies. This paper presented a near actual transformer
model for distribution system analysis. From some case
studies, we found that by using this model, the distribution
system can be simulated in more detail, and some
characteristics that can not be simulated by the conventional
method can also be obtained. Unfortunately, only the optimallyordered triangular factorization method was used as a solution
method, and not enough cases were studied, therefore, someapplication statuses are still unclear, for example, the
convergence problem. In our research experience, the
convergence characteristic will be affected by many factors, such
as the system configuration, the acceleration factor, the
connection of the transformer, the degree of the systemunbalance, the location and size of cogeneration, the system
grounding type, etc. In some cases, the acceleration factor
should be reduced or the convergence results will be hard toobtain. To model a transformer, the model presented in this
paper is not the only one and may not the best one , but it is
significant that the paper introduced a way to model it in detailthat was not done before. The convergence problem in the
distribution system, especially when the system is modeled indetail, will be more complex than that of a transmission system.We are trying to make it clear and finding a better way to model
the system devices, especially the transformer, and the solutiontechnologies.
Finally, we would like to mention that the transformer
models presented in this paper cannot be applied to thetransformer with mid-tap right now, and we are continuing this
kind of research. It is expected that the transformer with mid-
tap can be modeled in the near future.
