Hardware Testbed and Large-scale Testbed Co-simulation based Hardware in Loop Simulation

Overview

Hardware TestBed and Large-scale TestBed Co-Simulation (HLTB Co-Sim) is a real-time hybrid EMT-phasor simulation for Hardware in Loop (HIL) Simulation.

More sub-sections: Installation, Structure, Procedures.

Background

Hardware TestBed (HTB) is a power electronic-based power system emulators¹, and Large-scale TestBed (LTB)²³⁴ is a large-scale power system simulation that can be used as virtual grid or digital twin of a real power grid.
