Documentation
DPsim is a solver library for dynamic power system simulation.
- It supports both the electromagnetic transient (EMT) and dynamic phasor (DP) domain for dynamic simulation.
- A powerflow solver is included standalone usage or initialization of dynamic simulations.
- It provides a Python module which can be embedded in any Python 3 application / scripts.
- The simulation core is implemented in highly-efficient C++ code.
- It supports real-time execution with time-steps down to 50 uS.
- It can load models in the IEC61970 Common Information Model (CIM) XML format.
- It can be interfaced to a variety of protocols and interfaces via VILLASnode.
