== Distributed Simulation of Power Grid== [[TOC(Other/Summer/2015*, depth=3)]] === Introduction === The goal of this project is to develop a tool that will allow us to simulate a distributed [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Smart_grid smart grid] - an emerging modern electrical grid that incorporates technology to gather and use information about the elements in the grid to improve efficiency and reliability. To achieve this we hope to create a library to extend the functionality of Mathworks's [http://www.mathworks.com/products/simulink/ Simulink], a well known software for modeling systems. This library would allow the study of a smart grid under non-ideal conditions through the safety of a simulation. The distribution of the elements would allow us to study the communication between these simulated elements - one of the most important features of the smart grid - using a resource like [http://www.winlab.rutgers.edu/docs/focus/ORBIT.html ORBIT]. {{{ #!html Check out our Google Site located HERE for more updates }}} ---- === Objectives === * Develop a library to simulate power elements over different processors * Implement this library of blocks in C using Simulink and other software * Test this library using ORBIT ---- === People === Led by: Professor Hana Godrich [[br]] Jeremy Savarin, Chhayang Patel, Parth Parikh, Bharath Molakal, Glen Huang, Matthew Chan ---- === Resources === [https://docs.google.com/presentation/d/1pxA8D0GO6ouhS3ZDA9K2dtHu4JMhlZzGSedLJiBT1gc/edit?usp=sharing Week 1 Presentation] [[br]] [https://docs.google.com/presentation/d/1yXUSf_QMxKrfFnZFokMz0atKodioRFQkomjf11jwRkM/edit?usp=sharing Week 2 Presentation] [[br]] [https://docs.google.com/presentation/d/1pnNG1ajErYrNPcvSHGpEf-lvUkCt_0wktVdPkXzTky4/edit?usp=sharing Week 3 Presentation] [[br]] [https://docs.google.com/presentation/d/1WGHlUdH8szIQ61IXiYUiNb4lF15ySl_EqH3sPKXLcdo/edit?usp=sharing Week 4 Presentation] [[br]] [https://docs.google.com/presentation/d/1yyYGipCd9y_7SRBS42e8gswP-gVeyrAyio3QzUVe4IQ/edit?usp=sharing Week 5 Presentation][[br]] ----
