Abstract — This paper
presents a software tool by which
the users can watch animated
travelling waves created along
transmission lines as a result
of power system disturbances. It
is implemented in such a way
that the discrete time samples of
voltages and currents which are
simulated by the ATP-EMTP
program are processed by this
software in order to create the
animation. Examples of transients
caused by events such as the
DC energization of a single phase
transmission line with different
line terminations and ground
faults occurring on transmission
lines are used to illustrate
the capabilities of the software. |
