The choice of a simulation time step in the real-time simulator applications Conference Paper

abstract

• This paper discusses one of the most important design and application issues in a real-time digital simulator design, namely the issue of the simulation time-step. A real-time digital simulator for protective relay testing recently developed by Texas A&M University for Western Area Power Administration is used to illustrate various aspects of the simulation time-step issue. Frequency bandwidth, simulation accuracy, network complexity, and I/O subsystem requirements are selected to illustrate how the choice of the simulation time step affects design and application of the simulator.
