Addison Mauldin
This laboratory exercise serves as an introduction to one of manysoftware programs that are used for electric power systems. Thissimulation program, PowerWorld Simulator, will be used for the firstthree labs of this course.
This simulator is an interactive power system simulation packagedesigned to simulate high voltage power system operation. It is mainlyused for basic and intermediate power system analysis. In terms oftechnical characteristics, power system analyses can be classified intothree levels:
The entire strip across the top is called the ribbon and contains allof the tools that are used. The ribbon consists of several ribbon tabswhich are organized into groups. The 7 ribbons that make up the toolbarare summarized below.
The case is then solved and becomes interactive. For example youcan adjust the power supplied to the system by the generators or thepower consumed by the loads by using the up and down arrows next to eachof the devices power display. You can also disconnect loads, generatorsor branches by using the red squares that connect them to abus.
Some of the results can be observed directly on the one-line diagram.For example, the voltages are listed beside the buses, the real andreactive power output of the generators is shown next to thecorresponding generator, the power flow is indicated along the branches,etc.
A simple case consisting of 3 buses can be created easily usingPowerWorld Simulator. Bus 1 is connected to the utility (Source), Bus 2is connected to the generator (Gen) and Bus 3 provides power to the load(Load). One transmission line (from Bus 2 to 3) and one transformer(from Bus 1 to 3) build up the network. A switched shunt capacitor isconnected to Bus 3 which is available to boost the bus voltage ifrequired.
Give Bus 2 a Bus Name of Co-Gen andNominal Voltage of 13.8kV. This bus will be a PV-bus and beconnected to a co-generator, therefore a Bus Voltage inp.u. is required. Enter 0.995 in the corresponding box.There is no need to enter an Bus Voltage Angleso leave it empty.
Give Bus 3 a Bus Name of Load and aNominal Voltage of 13.8kV. This bus will be a typicalPQ-bus and have a load connected to it. Neither aBus Voltage or Angle setting is needed soleave them as they are.
Select the Draw ribbon and under theIndividual Insert ribbon group selectNetwork\Switched Shunt. Insert the shunt capacitor intoone-line diagram by clicking on Bus 3 (Load) to attach it to the samebus as the load.
Select the Draw ribbon and under theIndividual Insert ribbon group selectNetwork\Transmission Line. Insert the transmission lineinto one-line diagram by first clicking on Bus 2 to start thetransmission line and then double clicking on Bus 3 to finishit.
Select the Draw ribbon and under theIndividual Insert ribbon group selectNetwork\Transformer. Insert the transformer into one-linediagram by first clicking on Bus 1 to start the transformer and thendouble clicking on Bus 3 to finish it.
A new dialog box named Bus Field Options appears.From the Type of Field area at the bottom selectBus Voltage (p.u.). Choose 4 forDigits to Right of Decimal. The p.u. bus voltage thendisplays in the oneline diagram.
Similarly to above, you can display information for generators,loads, shunt capacitors, transmission lines and transformers. Once thecase is solved the load flow results will be displayed on the one-linediagram as demonstrated below.
Submit the following on eClass using the Submit (Lab 1 - Results)link before the postlab due date. Every student needs to hand-in theirown results. Please merge all the following into a single pdf documentin the following order:
Use the completed Lab Sign-off sheet as your cover sheet. Makesure your name, student ID, CCID and lab section are visible at the topof the page and make sure that you have obtained the requiredsignatures.
For lab 2 we will using the case described in the following one-linediagram and tables below. The case consists of 9 buses and isrepresentative of a medium-sized industrial plant. The system isextracted from the IEEE Color Book series.
The industrial plant is connected to the utility supply of 69.00 kVat BUS-5 and then is distributed throughout the plant at voltages of13.80 kV or lower. Capacitance of the overhead lines and cables areneglected.
From the Per-Unit Line and Cable Impedance Datatable below re-calculate new per-unit values that will be entered intoPowerWorld Simulator while using a \(S_BASE\) of 100 MVA. Note that all the ofthe per-unit values in the table below are calculated with a \(V_BASE\) of 13.8 kV regardless of thenominal voltage of the branch.
There are 3 generators used in this example case. One of thegenerators is used with negative numbers to act like a motor load.Determine which type of bus each of the 3 generators are connected to, aslack, PV or PQ bus.

Viewer is a freeware program designed to make it easy to exchange power flow cases. You can view a solved power flow case graphically using animated one-lines. Viewer (and Simulator) can handle cases up to 250,000 buses. Download it for Free!
This is the default setup and it mirrors my setting. It should simulate just fine using all default settings. Even as I am typing this it is running happily with no errors. You can try what I posted previously. What version do you have?
You may have to try to repair your install. This is the reason I asked the questions. Follow the procedure below. This is the only thing I think might help. I don't know why this problem is occurring other than maybe something got corrupted in your install.
I can't think of anything else other than software files that may have become corrupted or are missing that could cause this. I have tried everything within the simulator to recreate this and the only thing that gives me this error is deleting the power source off the schematic. It is like yours is not recognizing the part for the power source.
In gym-powerworld,ESA was used to create a standardized reinforcement learningenvironment for power system voltage control. This environment wasthen used to carry out deep reinforcement learning (DRL)experimentsin which the algorithm attempts to learn how to best control gridvoltages under a diverse set of grid conditions.
In this paper,ESA was leveraged to create and simulate different electric gridscenarios where load, renewable generation levels, generationcapacities, scheduled outages, and unit commitment were all varied.The resulting scenarios were used in theGrid Optimization (GO) competitionhosted by the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE).
ESA can be used with Julia programming language now via EasySimauto.jl.Julia is a fast and amazing language, and it is currently widely used in theresearch and scientific computing area. EasySimauto.jl is by far the simplest wayto interact with PowerWorld Simulator from Julia.
Implement a modified fast N-1 and N-2 contingency analysis algorithm.The algorithm is originally developed by Prof. Kostya Turitsyn from MIT andthe implementation has been slightly modified and adapted to work with ESA.
MATLAB (MATrix LABarotary) is the most popular electrical engineering software among Electrical Engineering students. It was launched in 1983 by Mathworks Inc. and was one of the first commercial packages for linear algebra. It has evolved over time and has become the most comprehensive software for Numerical Computing, Dyanimc System Simulations, Algebraic Solutions, Symbolic Mathematics etc. It contains add-on packages (called Toolboxes) for various functionalities. Toolboxes provide built-in functions to perform numerical computations including but not limited to Ordinary & Partial Differential Equations, Optimization, Linear System Implementation, Linear Algebra, Control System Design, System Identification, Curve Fitting.
The programing language used in MATLAB (The software package) is also called Matlab. Matlab is a high-level programming language, it contains a good number of built-in functions to efficiently deal with matrices, numerical computations, symbolic mathematics etc.
Simulink is the GUI based companion software for Matlab. It is powered by Matlab programming language. Many electrical engineers find Simulink much easier to use than MATLAB. When you use MATLAB and Simulink together, you combine textual and graphical programming to design your system in a simulation environment. Directly using the thousands of algorithms that are already in MATLAB. Use MATLAB to create input data sets to drive simulation. Run thousands of simulations in parallel. Then analyze and visualize the data in MATLAB.
Though Simulink is general-purpose software for implementing graphical simulation, it has a specialized toolbox for simulating Power Systems. It can be used to simulate, analyze renewable energy resources, transmission lines, electrical transients, standby switching of power supply.
