A direct current electric power system is one of the most important power source in a metro railway system. As railway system is growing up today, the importance of DC electric power system is emphasized. The study for systemization and standardization of design and operation technique in DC electric power system is undergoing nowadays. For these studies, the development of standard analysis model for metro railway electric power system is required. In this paper, a standard analysis model for metro railway electric power system which is using PSCAD/EMTDC program is proposed. The proposed model is explained and the validity is shown by using the case studies.

A variable speed wind turbine simulation model for grid connection is developed based on PSCAD/EMTDC. The model consists of wind model, rotor dynamics, synchronous generator, power converter, transformer, distribution line and infinite bus. Implementation of blade characteristics and power converter control strategies are included. Several transient case studies are performed including wind speed change, local load change and grid-side voltage unbalance using developed simulation model. The results of this work can be utilized for study of actual interaction between wind turbine and grid for reliable operation and protection of power system.

Co-generation systems have been spreading rapidly over the past 10 years in Korea and most of these systems are interconnected with electric power systems. However, better control and protection models are still needed for analysis of these systems to ensure stable operation with the grid. This paper proposes improved EMTDC models for control fad protection analysis of grid-connected co-generation systems. Through on-site characteristic testing, the models were developed and the model parameters were determined. The models were applied to a field co-generation system, and analysis of control and protection was performed showing a good match to the simulation results.

To supply electrical power with high quality, the power system must be optimized in many ways such as planning, control and management. In order to optimize the power system, the analysis of the power system is necessary. The elements of the power system require an accurate model to analysis of the power system. The components of the power systems such as generators, transformers and transmission lines have been studied and researched a lot in their modeling and very sophisticated models have been proposed. However, in case of load in-depth studies on the exact model are required. In this paper, measurement-based load modeling method using real-time measured data is proposed in various methods to reflect the characteristics of the load. To prove the validity of the proposed method, PSCAD/EMTDC program is used to configure the power system and measurement data according to the various failures are used to study on load modeling.

This study presents a AC electric railway system model using PSCAD/EMTDC. Ver.3.08 for circuit analysis and fault studies. This system model made by PSCAD/EMTDC is composed of feeder, contact line, rails, Scott-transformer, Auto-transformer. This model is based on four-port network which is an extension of two-port network theory. In order to verify the proposed model, each voltage of feeder-rail, contact line-rail and feeder-contact line is measured and fault studies are also simulated.

Before applying the HTS(High Temperature Superconductor) power devices to a real utility network, system analysis should be carried out by some simulation tools. PSCAD/EMTDC simulation tool is one of the most popularized useful analysis tools for electrical power system. Unfortunately the model component for HTS coil is not provided in PSCAD/EMTDC simulation tool. In this paper, EMTDC model component for HTS coil has been developed considering real characteristics of HTS coil like critical current, temperature and magnetic field. The developed model component of HTS coil could be used for power system application. Using the developed model component for HTS coil, we can easily do the simulation of HTS power devices application test in utility with the various inductance, quench current, inner magnetic field, and temperature values, for instances; SMES(Superconducting Magnetic Energy Storage) system, superconducting motor, transformer, and FCL(Fault Current Limiter)

Unfortunately the model component for HTS coil is not provided in the PSCAD/EMTDC simulation tool. In this paper, the model component for the HTS coil has been developed considering the real field data, temperature and magnetic field, of the HTS coil. The numerical model of HTS coil in PSCAD/EMTDC was designed by using the real experimented data obtained from the $AMSC^{TM}$ wire characteristic. The developed model component for HTS coil could be variously used when the power system includes HTS coil.

Nowadays, one of the serious problems in KEPCO(Korea Electric Power Co-Operation) system is the more higher fault current than the SCC(Short Circuit Capacity) of circuit breaker. There are many alternatives to reduce the increased fault current such as isolations of bus ties, enhancement of SCC of circuit breaker, applications of HVDC-BTB(High Voltage Direct Current-Back to Back) and FCL(fault current limiter). But, these alternatives have some drawbacks in viewpoints of system stability and cost. As the superconductivity technology has been developed, the HTS-FCL(High Temperature Superconductor -Fault Current Limiter) can be one of the attractive alternatives to solve the fault current problem. Under this background, this paper presents the EMTDC(Electro-Magnetic Transient Direct Current) model for resistance type HTS-FCL considering the nonlinear characteristic of final resistance value when quenching phenomena occur.

The modelling of PEMFC(Proton Exchange Membrane Fuel Cell) has been studied in many kinds of methods. But there are some limitations in application of the developed models to analysis transient phenomena of power systems. The PSCAD/EMTDC is very popular simulation tool in power system areas. To analysis power systems interconnected to PEMFCs, the PSCAD/EMTDC model of the PEMFCs is needed. In this paper, we developed a PSCAD/EMTDC model of PEMFC based on electro-chemical characteristic equations of PEMFC. Also, we performed simulations using the developed model in the PSCAD/EMTDC program and tested appropriateness of the proposed the models. The simulations showed good results.
