D-1 Dynamics Training Simulator 
Application
For self training on power system network 
 
Specification
  • Two modules ( i ) Load flow ( ii )  Transient Stability
  • Facility to change the data of different elements through dialog boxes
  • Results of load flow can be seen both graphically as well as in text file
Salient Features
  •  User friendly and flexible GUL, compatible with any Windows package with minimum required facilities
  • Violation of constraints after execution of load flow is indicated by blinking the corresponding element with sound
  •  Transient stability can be executed with different fault options.  Voltage regulator and Governor effects on the stability can be simulated
  •  After execution of transient stability results can be seen through different plots       
     Cost:  Rs. 1.5 Lakhs
D-2 GENSHED 
Application
