Quick Start Guide

The data for these tutorials is provided in PowerSystemCaseBuilder. If you want to build your own case, take a look at the tutorial Creating and Handling Data for Dynamic Simulations

For more details about loading data and adding more dynamic components check the Creating a System with Dynamic devices section of the documentation in PowerSystems.jl.

For a detailed tutorial about this case visit One Machine against Infinite Bus (OMIB) Simulation

Loading data

Data can be loaded from a pss/e raw file and a pss/e dyr file.

plot

If you miss PSS/e's plotting aesthetics and want something that resembles that, you can use UnicodePlots.

julia> unicodeplots()Plots.UnicodePlotsBackend()
julia> plot(angle, xlabel = "time", ylabel = "rotor angle [rad]", label = "gen-102-1");
