Simulating a changing load in an electrical power system
Show older comments
I have to simulate a transmission line in an electrical power system. How do I simulate a load if this load is raised every minute?

Please add any details to your question: Are you working with Matlab or Simulink, does "simulate" means real-time processing or do you integrate an ODE?

@nur hadi: I answer questions here in this forum. Sending emails will not increase my motivation to reply.
I have no experiences with Simulink. The lack of answers is a strong indication for an incomplete question. Without the necessary details, a meaningful reply is impossible.

I'm sorry, I don't really understand your question. My background is not in electrical power systems. As I said, if you want to vary the resistive load on your electrical power system, you can use a variable resistor and vary the value of the resistor with time using standard Simulink blocks. Check out the link I provided.

Have you had a look at the demos provided in SimPowerSystems? There are quite a few of them and one of them may be a good starting point for your application.

Hi Nur/Arnaud,
I have tried downloading both 2010a/b and 2009a/b version of matlab and none of them seems to have simpowersystems. I got this folder from my professor and saved it under the matlab folder and still doesn't help. Can you give me some advice?
Thank you in advance
Best, Yuling

Where did you download MATLAB from? SimPowerSystems is an add-on to Simulink, which is itself an add-on to MATLAB. So you need to purchase Simulink and SimPowerSystems as well as MATLAB.

Transmission lines are groups of wires, called conductors, that carry electric power from making plant life to the substations that deliver power to customers. At a generating plant, electric power is “stepped up” to numerous thousand volts by a transformer and brought to the transmission line.
