Thanks for reporting the issue. I was able to replicate the issue but don't have a solution yet.

The error is due to not being able to find solutions to algebraic equations. It might be caused by the control parameters of the renewable model. One way to troubleshoot is to keep only the REGCA1 model and test it again. Adjust the parameters until it converges, then add back REECA1, and tune the parameters.

I'm tied up recently and will be able to work on it late this month.

Thank you for your fast response and suggestions. I will try to troubleshoot it on these two days, and report the result here.

imitator19 commented on September 24, 2024

I have removed REECA1 and REPCA1, only leaving the REGCA1 for renewable modeling, in the case of ieee14_solar.xlsx. I have tried a variety of parameter combinations, the simulation continues to fail, however.
I think it may be necessary to inspect the equations of REGCA1 that do not converge.
Thank you.

Thank you for your time and update.

If you are interested, another direction for troubleshooting is to increase the fault impedance xf to a large value, say 0.1, to reduce the severity of the fault. If the system converges, then slowly decrease xf and see if any of REGCA1's variable sees sharp changes. All variables of REGCA1 can be viewed using ss.TDS.plt.panoview(ss.REGCA1). Related parameters of sharply changing variables may offer some clue.

I will work on it later this month.

Hi Cui, I‘m Payne, from CSG, China, I've been studying Andes recently and would like to ask a question about why andes can
finish a 20-second transient simulation of a 2000-bus system in a few seconds. while other software or toolbox takes tens of seconds to calculate. What is the secret to speed up?

cuihantao commented on September 24, 2024

@Payne1992 Please start a new thread in Discussions and do not reply to an unrelated issue in the future :)

It's mostly owing to the implicit integration method, vectorization, and numba compilation.

cuihantao commented on September 24, 2024

@imitator19 :
The convergence issue you experienced is likely a no-solution case. A fault is implemented by a shunt with a small impedance, which effectively draws reactive power from the fault bus. As a result, the voltage will be reduced to almost zero, but the drawn reactive power, i.e., V^2/X, can still be too large for the network.

I created the case with REGCA1 only in PSS/E and got the same non-convergence issue. A fault is applied to Bus 8 at t=0.1 and cleared at t=0.11 with the default impedance parameters. PSS/E complains that the network does not converge immediately after the fault clearing. Note that in PSS/E, the fault is cleared at t=0.11 but will take place at the next step.

The PSS/E output is in the below, and I attached the case files for your reference.

Despite that nonconvergence, PSS/E is able to finish the simulation. I'm still troubleshooting the model.
