Abstract :
A description is given of the theoretical and practical development of a personal-computer-based demonstration of power generation concepts. The software developed simulates a Y-wound generator connected to an infinite bus through a step-up transformer and two parallel lines. The operation of the generator is simulated under starting, normal, and abnormal conditions of the power system
