Load flow and contingencies
AC and DC load flow calculation and automatic contingency analysis (n-1 and n-k) on networks of any size.
Comprehensive power system analysis
PowerFactory
PowerFactory is the reference application for the analysis of generation, transmission, distribution and industrial systems. It covers everything from standard functions to advanced applications (wind power, distributed generation, real-time simulation and monitoring), with a single database and flexible modelling capabilities.
Applications
What it can do
Short-circuit
Short-circuit calculation to IEC 60909, ANSI and the complete superposition method, with maximum and minimum currents.
RMS and EMT stability
Dynamic time-domain simulation, both RMS (electromechanical phenomena) and EMT (electromagnetic transients).
Power quality and harmonics
Analysis of harmonics, flicker and power quality in accordance with EN 50160 and IEC 61000.
Protection
Coordination of overcurrent and distance protection, with verification of settings and selectivity.
Small-signal stability
Modal and eigenvalue analysis for the study of power oscillations and their damping.
Reliability and optimisation
Reliability calculation, optimal power flow (OPF) and network state estimation.
Automation with Python
Automation of studies and post-processing of results through the Python API and the DPL and DSL languages.
