Introduction
Pylon is a port of MATPOWER to the Python programming language. MATPOWER is
a Matlab package for solving power flow and optimal power flow problems.
- pylon
- Defines the Case, Bus,
Branch and Generator classes and solvers for power flow and optimal
power flow problems.
- pylon.readwrite
- Parsers for power system data files with support for MATPOWER, PSS/E, and
PSAT. Also, defines case serializers for MATPOWER, PSS/E, CSV and Excel
formats. Case reports are available in ReStructuredText format.
- pylon.test
- A comprehensive suite of unit tests.
This manual explains how to install Pylon and provides a series of tutorials
that show how to solve power flow and optimal power problems.
Pylon follows the design of MATPOWER closely and the MATPOWER user
manual will likely provide
a useful reference.
