Modeling and simulation of microturbine based distributed generation system

Distributed generation (DG) is predicted to play an important role in the electric power system in the near future. It is widely accepted that micro turbine-generation are currently attracting lot of attention to meet users' need in the distributed generation market. In order to investigate the ability of microturbine units in distribution systems, their efficient modeling is required. This paper presents a dynamic model of a micro-turbine generator system. The model is developed in the MATLAB/Simulink and implemented in SimPowerSystems library. The model is built from the dynamics of each part with their interconnections. This simplified model is a useful tool for studying the various operational aspects of micro turbines. The performance of developed model is studied by connecting it to an isolated load
