Simulink-based programs for power system dynamic analysis

This paper introduces Simulink-based programs developed for dynamic analysis of electrical power systems. The program can be used for research studies or as a teaching tool. With the program, time-domain simulation, modal analysis, participation factor analysis and visualization, frequency response analysis, and design of conventional and intelligent controllers can be obtained. A special case of constant impedance load is also studied. IEEE 9-bus, IEEE 68-bus, Texas 2007-bus 282-machine, and the 25,000-bus northeastern US test systems are employed in this paper. The synchronous machines are assumed to be equipped with exciter, turbine, and stabilizer. Static var compensator is added using conventional and adaptive neuro-fuzzy controllers. Different types of disturbances are applied to the systems including generator-side and network-side disturbances. The program is free of algebraic loops that may increase the errors and slow down the simulation. All blocks and signals in the Simulink model are in vector form that can be used to simulate a power system of any size.
