Which block should I use to model a Synchronous Machine without damper windings in R2019a?
The question is not related to mechanical damping.

Best Answer

If you refer to the dq-axis damper windings (electrical parts), you should use one of the following blocks if you do not want to model a Synchronous Machine with damper windings.
In this case please use the simplified models and set the damping factor to zero:
For the Specialized Technology library we have this block:

For the Simscape language blocks we have this one here:
