Package includes PSS E base v33 plus the Short Circuit Module featuring a number of short circuit calculation algorithms to meet the diverse needs of fault analysis.

PSS E v33 base enhanced with Short Circuit add-on module.

This module performs balanced and unbalanced short circuit analysis, automatic sequencing of short circuit calculations for large models, circuit breaker duty calculations based on ANSI and / or IEC standards, and circuit breaker detailed fault analysis.

Package: PSS E v33 Base + Short Circuit Module System Features

Fault analysis in PSS E is based on a symmetrical component system representation. The positive-sequence system model as established in power flow is used directly in fault analysis. The negative- and zero-sequence system data are appended to and saved with the power flow case data, needing only one data file to carry out both power flow and short-circuit analysis. No additional validation of such data is required.

The various network elements, such as generators, motors, transmission lines, transformers, loads, shunts, DC devices, are modeled in the highest level of detail. There are provisions and access toward applying simplified models for these components, thereby giving the highest degree of freedom in modeling different network elements.

PSS E OPF improves the efficiency and throughput of power system performance studies by adding intelligence to the load flow solution process. Whereas the conventional load flow relies on the engineer to systematically investigate a variety of solutions before arriving at a satisfactory “good” solution, PSS E OPF automatically adjusts controls to determine the “best” solution.

Optimal Power Flow Module for PSS E v33 System Features

PSS E OPF provides an easy-to-use interface that has been specifically designed to assist in quickly defining and building even the most complex power system optimization problems. By being fully integrated into the PSS E Power Flow program, PSS E OPF obtains all of the necessary load flow data models directly from PSS E and automatically updates them each time an optimal power flow solution process is completed.

Spreadsheets provide a convenient way to introduce, modify and view all optimal power flow constraints and control variables. A complete set of windows offers a modern graphical user interface in which to operate the entire program. Every function is directly accessible through pull-down menus.
