Transient Analysis of Fault-Induced Delayed Voltage Recovery by Mathematical Modeling of a Three-Phase Induction Motor

This paper presents a detailed fifth-order mathematical model of a three-phase induction motor, used in the WECC (Western Electricity Coordinating Council) composite load model. The main objective is to analyze the dynamic behavior of three-phase induction motors during fault-induced delayed voltage recovery (FIDVR) events, a critical phenomenon in power system voltage stability. The model is implemented in MATLAB/Simulink and validated by comparing its results with previous studies, demonstrating its ability to capture transient and subtransient responses under voltage disturbances. Different types of motors (A, B, and C) are analyzed, and variations in load and voltage disturbance magnitudes are studied. The results show that the model is accurate and robust, making it useful for voltage stability studies in systems with high induction motor penetration. However, the model has limitations, such as the lack of consideration for frequency drives and protection systems, suggesting areas for future research.
