ABSTRACT

The focus of this work is on investigation of LabVIEW electric power tool in particular and LabVIEW software in general for the analysis and design of electric power systems. Here we are targeting the solution of different electrical engineering problems which we very often face in teaching the course of power system analysis. At the time being, at Zarqa University, we are preparing a self study report for submission to ABET for accreditation of electrical engineering program. ABET considers that the application of different software tools during the learning process is essential and must be covered. Thus, power system analysis course has been selected as one of the courses that are decided to reach this outcome. As a result of that, a literature survey was conducted and several relevant topics were selected to be investigated. This included the following: simulation of on-line measurement of RMS and instantaneous values of electric power, calculation of symmetrical components using matrix analysis, on-line estimation of symmetrical components, use of phasor analysis to find phasor magnitude and phase angles, conversion of star to delta and delta to star configurations, and simulation of rotating phasors. All designed virtual instruments were analyzed, tested, and chosen solved examples gave very accurate results.
