Enhancement of the Computer Experience in Electric Power Engineering Education at the University of Alaska Fairbanks

1 Electrical Engineering Department, University of Alaska Fairbanks , Fairbanks, Alaska 99775 Abstract The University of Alaska Fairbanks (UAF) has recently acquired a commercial software product to complement power system analysis packages previously utilized in the UAF undergraduate power option, which include Power Technologies, Inc.’s (PTI) PSS/E and ASPEN One-Liner. The most recent acquisition, also used heavily by Alaska’s utilities, is Stoner Associates, Inc.’s Distribution Primary Analysis and Graphics (DPA/G) software. This paper describes how the DPA/G software has extended the electric power program capabilities at UAF in the power distribution area.
