This project performs a steady-state analysis of a synchronous generator delivering power to a high-voltage grid via a step-up transformer. Using the Per-Unit system, the software simplifies complex impedance calculations and visualizes the system's behavior in real-time.
Key Features Demonstrated:
Interactive Control Panel: Real-time adjustment of Active Power, Power Factor, and Reactance.
Dynamic Phasor Diagram: Visualizes the vector relationship between Internal EMF, Terminal Voltage, and Grid Voltage.
Advanced Engineering Mode: Calculates Voltage Regulation (VR) and Efficiency while accounting for extra system losses.
Safety Alerts: Automated warnings for "Under-Excited" (capacitive) loading risks.
