16. Initial Conditions (contd)
For a given disturbance, the inputs remain fixed throughout the simulation.
If the disturbance occurs due to a fault or a network change, the algebraic states must change instantaneously.
Dynamic states cannot change instantaneously.
Hence solve all the algebraic equations inclusive of the stator equations with the dynamic states specified at their values just prior to the disturbance as initial conditions to determine the new initial values of the algebraic states.
