Abstract
This thesis presents a design of a graphical user interface for a real time simulator for relay testing. The objectives of this study are achieved successfully by utilizing object-oriented concepts and techniques. The GUI software is developed in the X-Window/Motif environment under the AIX/IBM RISC6000 operating system using C language. The editing portion of the software allows the construction of one-line diagrams of power system network in a paint-brush-like environment. Real time simulation preparation and initialization is also performed by the GUI. Both off-line and real-time simulation can be invoked from the GUI. Pseudo-EMTP-format files are generated and used for Electromagnetic Transient Program(EMTP) application with some minor changes. The GUI provides appropriate CAD support for the real time simulator for relay testing. Its efficiency is illustrated by utilizing it in actual applications.
