Interactive learning in power system analysis

Abstract

Computer Aided Education (CAE) presents a host of new opportunities for institutions to improve educational outcomes. This CAE project is intended to aid students in e-learning way in power system analysis. This e-learning way comprises of calculation, equation, theory and also create an effective way for students to study as this way is much simple and attractive. In addition, lecturer also can use this project as guidelines and adapt it in their teaching lessons in the future. Besides, students can also refer their manual calculation with this program in their study with the aims to get correct result. There are two software are used to accomplish this CAE project. Excel 2007 software is used for calculation while Visual Basic 2008 is for the interface. Actually, there are three topic contains in this CAE program abut power system analysis which are load flow analysis, fault analysis and also optimal dispatch of generation. With this e-learning program, students can improve their learning skills and strengthen their understanding in power system analysis.
