Abstract

A power system simulation environment in MATLAB/Simulink is presented in this paper. The developed power analysis toolbox (PAT) is a very flexible and modular tool for load flow, transient, and small-signal analysis of electric power systems. Standard power system component models and a wide range of flexible AC transmission systems (FACTS) devices are included. Its data structure and block library have been tested to confirm its applicability to small-to-medium-sized power systems. Its advantages over an existing commercial package are given.
