PSAT
The Power System Analysis Toolbox
(PSAT) is a Matlab toolbox for electric power system analysis and
simulation. The command line version of PSAT is also GNU Octave
compatible. All operations can be assessed by means of graphical
user interfaces (GUIs) and a Simulink-based library provides an
user-friendly tool for network design.
The main features of PSAT are: Power
Flow; Continuation Power Flow; Optimal Power Flow; Small Signal
Stability Analysis; Time Domain Simulation; Phasor Measurement
Unit (PMU) Placement; Complete Graphical User Interface; User
Defined Models; FACTS Models; Wind Turbine Models; Conversion of
Data Files from several Formats; Export results to EPS, plain
text, MS Excel and LaTeX files; Interfaces to GAMS and UWPFLOW
Programs; Command Line Usage; and GNU Octave
Compatibility.
A brief introduction to PSAT is
available here. This presentation was given at
the first IEEE panel session on Open Source Software at the PES
Meeting of Montreal, Canada, on June 20, 2006.
Letters of reference for PSAT are
available here. If your University, Institution
or Company is using PSAT, please send me a letter of reference.
These letters are important for me in order to request funds to my
University and, in turn, to keep developing PSAT.
Read the documentation for installation
instructions and a detailed description of the toolbox.
