Abstract :
An interactive graphical user interface (GUI) package for the design, simulation and analysis of a power plant electrical auxiliary system is presented in this paper. The purpose of this package is to assist the engineer in performing nonreal-time, what-if, analysis in an interactive and intuitive environment. The package, AUXSYS, is capable of performing load flow and motor starting simulations. It provides a graphical interface for designing the one-line diagram of the plant and analyzing the output of the simulations. It is currently used for modelling Wisconsin Electric Power Company´s (WEPCO) power plant electrical auxiliary systems and is implemented for use on PCs
