VAR/Power Factor
Controller
The VAR/PF controller is a summing point type controller and creates the
outside loop of a two-loop system. This controller is implemented as a slow PI
type controller. The voltage regulator forms the inner loop and is implemented as
a fast PID controller.
The model of the CGCM-DLR VAR and power factor controller is shown in
Per-unit Block Diagram for VAR Controller
, respectively. Non-windup limit (V
CLMT
) is used for bounding the
VAR/PF controller output voltages (V
Q
and V
PF
).

Limiters
Both the over-excitation limiter (OEL) and the under-excitation limiter (UEL)
in this implementation are of the summed limiter type as opposed to takeover
type.
Per-unit Block Diagram for Under-excitation Limiter
shows the model of the
under-excitation limiter. The UEL creates the outer loop and the voltage
regulator creates the inner loop. The UEL uses a PI type controller.
