Error 167 | [PSS®E] | Could not find matching dynamic model


Relevant software:

PSS®E


Emitted message:

Could not find a matching dynamic model in PSSE model

Description:

This error occurs when a command references a dynamic model that cannot be found in the loaded PSS®E dynamic model data (.dyr file).

This could be due to a typo in the model name specified in the command, or the model may not be present in the .dyr file being used for the simulation.

danger

The simulation will fail as the specified dynamic model cannot be applied or controlled.

Possible impact:

  • The simulation will terminate.

Potential fixes:

  • Check Model Name: Verify that the model name specified in your command (e.g. in a DYRMODEL= argument) is spelled correctly and matches the name in your PSS®E model after the .dyr file is added. Note the field is case sensitive.
  • Verify .dyr File: Ensure that the correct .dyr file is being used for the simulation and that it contains the definition for the required dynamic model.
  • Check Model Association: Make sure the dynamic model is correctly associated with the right generator or asset in the PSS®E case.
