Quasi-Dynamic Simulation (Online) 10.11.26.PER, Perth

Timetable: All times are in Australian Western Standard Time (GMT +08)
Description Start End
Day 1: Tuesday 9 AM 5 PM
Day 2: Wednesday 9 AM 5 PM
The course introduces the principles and handling of the Quasi-Dynamic Simulation tool in PowerFactory which analyses the power system using time-series characteristics. Quasi-Dynamic Simulation models (QDSL models) are introduced as a powerful modelling capability where users are given access to the model calculation algorithm through the application of user-defined equations during Load Flow and Quasi Dynamic simulation.
