Power system simulation is an important means to study the dynamic behavior, to ensure the safety and stability, and to optimize the operation of a power grid. Pure physical simulation and digital simulation have their own advantages and disadvantages. A three-phase four-wire hybrid simulation platform integrating the advantages of both the digital simulation and physical simulation is developed by combining the physical simulation system and real-time digital simulator. The platform is rated at 400 V and 50 kVA with the short-circuit capacity of 500 kVA and can supply ten times the rated current to support the simulation of various short-circuit faults. An improved interface algorithm based on an ideal transformer model is proposed to extend the stability region of a hybrid simulation. Hybrid simulation experiments are conducted under two cases, and the comparison with the digital simulation demonstrates the performance of this platform and the potential applied to a modern power system. This platform has been equipped in a key laboratory of smart power grid technology. [ABSTRACT FROM PUBLISHER]
