  2. Power system simulation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Power_system_simulation

    The simulator must calculate the flows in the AC network that result from any given combination of unit commitment and generator megawatt dispatch, and ensure that AC line flows are within both the thermal limits and the voltage and stability constraints.

  3. Electronic circuit simulation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electronic_circuit_simulation

    The most well known analog simulator is SPICE. Probably the best known digital simulators are those based on Verilog and VHDL . Some electronics simulators integrate a schematic editor , a simulation engine, and an on-screen waveform display (see Figure 1), allowing designers to rapidly modify a simulated circuit and see what effect the changes ...

  4. Three-phase electric power - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Three-phase_electric_power

    Three-phase electric power (abbreviated 3ϕ [1]) is a common type of alternating current (AC) used in electricity generation, transmission, and distribution. [2] It is a type of polyphase system employing three wires (or four including an optional neutral return wire) and is the most common method used by electrical grids worldwide to transfer ...

  5. Synchronization (alternating current) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Synchronization...

    In an alternating current (AC) electric power system, synchronization is the process of matching the frequency, phase and voltage of a generator or other source to an electrical grid in order to transfer power. If two unconnected segments of a grid are to be connected to each other, they cannot safely exchange AC power until they are synchronized.

  6. Flexible AC transmission system - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flexible_AC_transmission...

    The FACTs family initially grew out of the development of High-Voltage Direct-Current (HVDC) conversion and transmission, which used Power Electronics to convert AC to DC to enable large, controllable power transfers. [1] While HVDC focused on conversion to DC, FACTs devices used the developed technology to control power and voltage on the AC ...

  7. Alternating current - Wikipedia

    A schematic representation of long distance electric power transmission. From left to right: G=generator, U=step-up transformer, V=voltage at beginning of transmission line, Pt=power entering transmission line, I=current in wires, R=total resistance in wires, Pw=power lost in transmission line, Pe=power reaching the end of the transmission line, D=step-down transformer, C=consumers.

  8. SimGrid - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SimGrid

    SimGrid is a framework for developing simulators of distributed applications targeting distributed platforms, which can in turn be used to prototype, evaluate and compare relevant platform configurations, system designs, and algorithmic approaches.

  9. Grid-tie inverter - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Grid-tie_inverter

    The grid tie inverter (GTI) must match the phase of the grid and maintain the output voltage slightly higher than the grid voltage at any instant. A high-quality modern grid-tie inverter has a fixed unity power factor, which means its output voltage and current are perfectly lined up, and its phase angle is within 1° of the AC power grid. The ...
