Application independent interactive environment for power systems education

The authors present an interactive software package for the simulation of power system stability studies. The package is intended as a supplementary tool for the teaching of power system stability courses at the graduate level. The development of the package was done exclusively for IBM-PC and compatible computers. The hardware mainly requires VGA display and 640 kbyte of memory. Professional libraries used for the development of the package include Meta Windows, graphics Menu, and Object Professional. The authors describe the methods used for the integration of various analysis programs and the organization of the data and information pertinent to a system study. >
