Regarding PQload #42

Open stefntom opened 5 years ago

stefntom commented 5 years ago

In the latest version the PQload module was added. Its documentation page states: PQ steady-state load Steady-state load with constant characteristic. Consumes the desired active and reactive power.

Can this model be used in transient simulation (e.g. System.dynType = SteadyInitial) by using controlled generators and none source? Even if it is possible, is it recommenced? Why was this model missing from the previous versions although it is probably the simplest one?

Thank you in advance

It should be possible to use this model in transient simulations. Might not reflect a practical use case though (ultimately stiff load).
