In this webinar, we demonstrate how MathWorks tools may be used to investigate electrical distribution system operation. The IEEE 123 Node Test Feeder is used to explore the following topics:

• Create distribution system networks automatically in SimPowerSystems™ from network data stored in text file formats.
• Perform unbalanced load-flow computations in time-domain simulation through the use of pseudo steady-state modeling.
• Assess operational risk through monte-carlo simulations.
• Automate report generation to record the output of simulation studies.
• Integrate EMT components into a phasor system level simulation.
• Investigate demand response strategies, such as smart charging of electric vehicles.
