Abstract :
This paper describes a user-friendly power simulation package for teaching power system operations and control. This Microsoft Windows(R) based program simulates power system operation over a specified time period (of typically several hours to a day). Students dynamically interact with the simulated system through various windows, including a one-line display. The use of data files and option windows allows the program to simulate a wide variety of different power systems and operating problems
