    On Impact of Load Modelling on Motor-Start Simulation of Large Power Systems
    (2019-01-02) Chih, Edmond Kamhoi; Zareipour, Hamidreza; Westwick, David T.; Pahlevani, Majid; Nowicki, Peter P.
    Dynamic load models are important in the planning and the operation of power systems, as they replicate the responses of electrical devices in power system simulations. One of these load models that is used is the CLOD model. The parameters used for this model are typical assumptions based on typical system conditions and studies. However, with the development and integration of new technologies at load sites, these assumptions that have prevailed to date may no longer be suitable. In addition, existing literature does very little in discussing how applying this model impacts the outcome of motor start simulations. Thus, the objective of this research is to investigate how using the CLOD model with different parameters impacts the outcome of the dynamic motor-start simulations on the Alberta Interconnected Electrical System.
