Modelling and Simulation of Power Lines Using Modelica Language, Starting from the Line Geometry.

Modelica is a simulation language that is able to model systems from many different fields of scientific and engineering contexts, which can coexist in individual models. Modelica Standard Library is an open‐source library that contains many ready‐to‐use open‐source models built in Modelica language but does not have any code to determine transmission line parameters from its geometry, thus limiting its usability for power system studies. This paper first describes important issues arising when modelling power transmission lines, then presents how they can be solved using Modelica code. Readers of this paper will, therefore, be able to model power lines from the geometry of conductors using any of the existing (some freely available) Modelica‐capable simulation tools.
