Description

The Governor Type 3 block models a model IEEEG3 hydro turbine-governor with penstock dynamics.

This block has a more detailed governor model than the Governor Type 1 block and uses a linearized model of the turbine, or water, column model and penstock dynamics.

You can switch between continuous and discrete implementations of the block by using the Sample time (-1 for inherited) parameter. To configure the governor for continuous time, set the Sample time (-1 for inherited) property to 0. To configure the governor for discrete time, set the Sample time (-1 for inherited) property to a positive, nonzero value, or to -1 to inherit the sample time from an upstream block.

This diagram illustrates the overall structure of the block:

General

Per-unit speed reference.

Per-unit initial torque at the start of the simulation.

Time between consecutive block executions. During execution, the block produces outputs and, if appropriate, updates its internal state. For more information, see What Is Sample Time? and Specify Sample Time.

For inherited discrete-time operation, set this parameter to -1. For discrete-time operation, set this parameter to a positive integer. For continuous-time operation, set this parameter to 0.

If this block is in a masked subsystem or a variant subsystem that supports switching between continuous operation and discrete operation, promote this parameter to ensure correct switching between the continuous and discrete implementations of the block. For more information, see Promote Block Parameters on a Mask.
