A nonlinear model for studying a variable-speed synchronous generator (SG) in more electric aircraft (MEA) power system has been developed. The saturation effects of the SG magnetic circuit have been considered. The model has been implemented in the Synopys/Saber simulation environment. The modelling language MAST has been used to elaborate the SG model. The model exhibit a network with the same number of external terminals/ports as the real SG, and represents its behaviour in terms of the electrical (stator and rotor windings) and mechanical (shaft) variables as well. The main advantage of the approach is the ease of describing MEA power system in terms of its topology. Thus, normal and fault operation of any MEA power system can be effectively investigated. The presented simulation results have proved that the proposed approach can be recommended for analysis of MEA power systems.
