Introduction
The modern Electric Power System is a modern engineering marvel, providing instantaneous power at precise voltage and frequency requirements to a wide range of industrial, commercial, and private customers. The electric power system includes generation, transmission, and distribution systems. Transmission lines as the connecting links between these systems. Three-phase to single phase circuits transports the electric power from generation to the end-user.
The Electric Power course introduces the engineering student to the concepts needed for an understanding of the electric power system. The topics normally covered are:
- Three-Phase circuits and power systems
- Single and Three-Phase Transformers
- DC Motors and Generators
- Synchronous Motors and Generators
- Induction Motors
The power course objective is to provide an understanding of the electric machine physical construction, fundamental laws governing their operation, external characteristics, and the relation between performance to equivalent circuit models.
The power course also has an attending lab where the engineering student gains experience and intuition in the actual operation of the electric machines and systems. The typical lab requires the student to connect the power circuit, run and record data for differing parameters, reduce the data and perform calculations, and then write a lab report.
This file exchange contains eight virtual power labs with accompanying lab assignments. The lab and lab assignment are to mimic the actual hardware lab operation and tasks required. Each lab is designed to allow the student to actively investigate what happens as they vary parameters. Each lab allows the student to vary certain parameters and see the resulting data.
The lab assignments provide lab objectives, model description, experimental tasks, and analytical tasks.
Virtual Power Lab Summaries

Experimental Tasks: Set constant DC Field Voltage and vary mechanical load, recording induced torque, armature current, and torque angle, set constant mechanical load
Analytical Tasks: Plot phasor diagrams representing three load conditions to determine the impact of load changes, Plot phasor diagrams for a constant mechanical load with varying field currents to determine the impact of field current changes, plot the motor’s V-curve and Power Factor versus field current
Note
- The Three-Phase Power Lab will error if a Delta connection isolates the sensor between ungrounded networks. Use the grounded WYE connection for the transformers and loads
- The DC Motor labs can be run beyond the motor stall torque resulting in negative power and rotational speed.
- The motor and generator models do not account for friction and windage losses
