In this paper, methods for transitioning between different types of wound-rotor synchronous machines models are examined. The specific transitions investigated are (1) finite element to circuit-based machine models and (2) circuit-based to average value models of machine/rectifier systems. Good agreement between simulation results obtained using the different model types is achieved. This work sets the stage for a software environment that enables both component and system level analysis of electrical power systems. 2008 Electric Machines Technology Symposium, August 12-13, 2008, Philadelphia,...
