23 bus Network

This model simulates a 500 kV transport network consisting of 45-distribution lines that supplies power to 17 loads of 120 MW and 30 MVar. The frequency of the network is 60 Hz. There are seven 1000 MVA hydraulic generation turbine plant (synchronous machines and regulators) connected to the network.

eMEGAsim makes possible to see the behaviour of the network when faults occur during simulation (A to ground, AB to ground, ABC to ground ). It makes also possible to study the electromagnetic transient when the network lost machines or lines. Instability, islanding and resonance are some of the phenomenon that can be study and validate with the model.

This transport network represented a typical electric network with loads, generation machines and distribution lines. It shows the capacity of eMEGAsim to simulate this kind of network in real time with good performance. This model is separated in 4 CPUs and the step size of each cpu are 58 us on a dual quad core machine running at 2.3 GHz.
