Abstract

This paper summarizes the experience in using Siemens PSSE-University power system simulation software as a teaching aid to introduce basic power system concepts to engineering technology students at the undergraduate level. Topics to be discussed and demonstrated in this paper include AC and DC power flow analysis, power system transient stability analysis, reactive power and voltage control, as well as short circuit analysis. For each of the topics presented above, the paper will provide (i) the theoretical background, (ii) a numerical example solvable by hand-calculations, and (iii) the corresponding solution obtained from running PSSE- University. The paper will also provide the perspectives of the instructor on using PSSE as a teaching tool and the perspectives of the students on using PSSE as a learning tool.
