Electrical Power System - Sizing and Analysis Tool (EPS-SAT)(LEW-20017-1)

The Electrical Power System - Sizing and Analysis Tool (EPS-SAT) is a tool whose purpose is to analyze electrical power system architectures in order to better direct investment dollars and to expose the strengths and weaknesses of various designs. The software uses on- and off-design modes to complete this analysis. In on-design, the electrical power system components are sized (to estimate system mass, loss, and efficiency). In off-design, the system's performance (such as loss, and efficiency) is calculated at points in the power system's operating range. EPS-SAT includes a Newton-Raphson solver, basic and detailed electrical power system components, and a library of study tools. By using these elements of EPS-SAT, a user can size an electrical power system, perform system trade studies, and examine system response at off-nominal design points.
