The paper presents a new steady state operation model and for the firs
t time introduces a transient state operation model for the generator
in the power plant training simulators. The steady state operation mod
el precisely includes the effect of the magnetic saturation in the gen
erator by using the M.M.F.-E.M.F. phasor diagram method and also meets
the real-time simulation requirement by using the iteration method wi
th a changeable step size. Based on the artificial neural networks met
hod, the transient state operation of the generator can be simulated o
n a real-time basis and the simulation results are precise. With the a
ddition of the generator transient state operation model, the function
of power plant training simulators is expanded.
