PSP-UFU (Power Systems Platform of Federal University of Uberlândia) is a cross-platform, multilingual, Free and Open-Source Software (FOSS) with advanced GUI (Graphical User Interface) features and CAD (Computer-Aided Design) tools for power system studies.

The software allows for the construction of any electric transmission network and control systems through the deployment of visual elements.

For the visualization of results, the program offers linked text elements in the main screen, and also table and graph editors.

The PSP-UFU aims to provide efficient computer simulation tools for research and education purposes, in addition to industrial applications in electrical power systems.

The software can perform the following studies:

• Power Flow
  • Newton-Raphson
  • Gauss-Seidel
  • Hybrid Newton-Gauss
  • Three-phase induction motors included in power flow studies
• Short-Circuit calculation
  • Balanced
  • Unbalanced
  • Short-Circuit power in all system buses
• Harmonics
  • Harmonic voltages and THD (Total Harmonic Distortion) calculation
  • Frequency scan
• Transient and Dynamic Stability
  • Several synchronous machine models automatically selected
  • Three-phase induction motors
  • User-defined machine controls, exciters and prime moves created using block diagrams (Exciters, AVR, PSS, Hydro and Thermal turbines, Speed Governor, etc.)
