I Installing ATP: Lecture 5
 Minimum to Download
» Mingw version of ATP
» ATPDraw -- latest version or latest patch
– Presently Atpdraw57.zip
» PlotXY
 Option: ATP Easy Installer
» Download from secure sites in Japan

U ECE 404/504
I Installing ATPDraw
Lecture 5
 Installation is fairly easy

 Default installation path “Program Files” 
avoid this
 The space in the file name can create
problems running ATP from ATPDraw
» Install it somewhere else.
else I normally install in
“C:\tools\prog\ATPDraw”
 Install program may create shortcut in the
start menu, but not very cleanly
U Running ATP from ECE 404/504
I ATPDraw
Lecture 5
 Still need a copy of ATP

 Licensed users can get other versions
 Follow installation directions for yours
 ATPDraw calls ATP from a DOS Batch
file (extension *.bat)
» For example, I call it “RUNATP.BAT”
 Passes full path to file when calls ATP

U ECE 404/504
I Sample Batch File

Lecture 5
 The following batch file is for Ming32 ATP

SET GNUDIR=C:\tools\prog\atp\
SET PATH=C:\tools\prog\atp;"%PATH%”
tpbig both %1 s -r
The first line defines variable GNUDIR

» Different ATP versions use different name
» Sets program working environment
» The final “\” is important

I Sample Batch File (cont.) Lecture 5
 Second line adds executable to your search

path
th (not
( t needed
d d if sett this
thi att boot
b t time)
ti )
 The next line calls ATP itself
» tpbig both %1 s -R
– “both” tells program to write error messages to screen
and to file (useful for debugging)
– Could also set “disk” to only do disk file or leave blank
for no message
– First “%1” is input data file from ATPDraw
3
U ECE 404/504
I Sample Batch File (cont.) Lecture 5
– The “s” is to create appropriate output file.

– “-R”
R tells ATP overwrite existing output file if one
exists
 This bat file will let you run ATP, and all of
the support program (line constants etc)
U ECE 404/504
I Editing “startup”
Lecture 5
 ATP reads a file called “startup”

startup
» Resides in same directory as tpbig
» Sets variables for the program
 A few suggested changes from default
» Change
g PL4 file format to work with PlotXY
– NOBLAN set to 0 {ignore blank lines}
– NEWPL4 set to 2 {won’t work with Analyzer}

U ECE 404/504
I Setting Up ATPDraw
Lecture 5
 Open up ATPDraw
 Select: “Tools” pull down menu
 Select: “Options...”
 Choose “Preferences” tab
» You select a text editor, or use Notepad (default)
» “ATP” is where you set path to your batch file
 Armafit: which we won’t cover in this course

 The “Files&Folders” tab settings are ok

 However,
However you do want changes in the
View/ATP tab
» Select “Edit settings” tab
» You may want to change
some of the default
settings. However, you
can change any of these
for a specific data file
U ECE 404/504
I Simulation Settings Lecture 5
 Default time step (deltaT)

is very small
 Default run time short
 Xopt and Copt ok
 Select “Power Frequency”
» Reset to 60 Hz from 50Hz
» Can mess up some sources

I Saving New Settings Lecture 5
 The “Save”
Save or “Apply”
Apply buttons aren
aren’tt
sufficient to permanently save change
 Also choose: Tools --> Save Options
 These are all saved into a file called
ATPDraw.ini
» Typically

» Could put copy in the directory with
ATPDraw.exe

I ATP Menu Lecture 5
 A new pulldown menu is now available at

th ttop off the
the th window,
i d called
ll d “ATP”
U ECE 404/504
I ATP Menu Lecture 5
 Settings is changes deltaT

etc. for a given case
 “Make File As” generates
ATP data file from drawing
 Run ATP calls your bat file
 Each
E h “Edit” callsll ttextt editor
dit
 Make Names, makes node
names for drawing
8
U ECE 404/504
I Edit Commands Lecture 5
 Allows you to set

additional commands
 Run other ATP versions
» On Current ATP drawing
» On Selected File
 Run
R plot
l t programs
» On Current PL4
 Use “Update” to set
U ECE 404/504

save for next time
 All choose: Tools --> Save Options
9
U ECE 404/504
I Running an ATP File Lecture 5
 Now we run the example case opened earlier

 Always a multi-step process
» 1) Make file to create ATP data file from drawing.
– Must do this every time you change drawing
– Default is to place this in “ATP” subdirectory under
ATPDraw home directory (with extension *.ATP)
– Can edit this file with “Edit ATP-File” option (not saved
to drawing file)
» 2) Run your case
» 3) Call plotting program
U ECE 404/504
I Running an ATP File Lecture 5
 The drawing file saved separately (save often)

 Remember to save your changes often
 Default is to save this in the “Project”
subdirectory under ATPDraw
 Note that if want to save elsewhere, need to
select a new home for both ADP and ATP files
» PL4 and *.lis (or *.out depending on version) are
written to same directory at *.ATP file
» Need to cleanup directories periodically
10
U ECE 404/504
I Making You Own File Lecture 5
 Open a new drawing (from File

menu or from icon)
 Can get the component menu by
right clicking mouse in the
drawing screen
 Each item lets you select
components to create
 More later….
U Transient Analysis of ECE 404/504
I Control Systems (TACS)

Lecture 5
 Introduced in EMTP in 1976

 Developed to model controls for HVdc
converters (Pacific Intertie)
 Model interactions between system
transients and control systems
y
 Each variant of EMTP has it own variant
 ATP has two: TACS and Models
11
U ECE 404/504
I What TACS can do Lecture 5
 Model control systems

» Generator excitation and governor control
» Control loops for power electronic converters
» Firing circuit for power electronics
» Relay algorithms
U ECE 404/504
 Monitor and post-process

post process network variables
» Analog and digital filters
» RMS voltages and currents
» Calculate P and Q
» Compute motor/generator torque or flux
» Reference frame transformations
12
U ECE 404/504
 Simulate mechanical/electromechanical
 Non-linear reponses
 Create models for devices without built-in
models – for example, arc resistances
 Create harmonic sources
 Variable frequency sources
U TACS Relationship to ECE 404/504
I Network Solution
Lecture 5
 Control system models solved separate from network

» Different equation formats
» First network then TACS in each time step
» Leads to on step time delay

Controlled Sources
13
U ECE 404/504
I General Format
Lecture 5
 TACS design from point of view of reproducing

Laplace domain block diagram
» Converted to difference equations
» Arbitrary connections of blocks
 Signal and variable names limited to 6
characters
 Can implement digital controls
 Some limited FORTRAN expressions
U ECE 404/504
I TACS and ATPDraw

Lecture 5
 ATPDraw Interface for TACS

» Not as nice as circuit interface,
interface but much improved
 Not essentially to always draw connecting lines
» Use the same variable names instead
» Will generate a warning message about duplicate
names when first run ATP file
 Several of the example cases shipped with
ATPDraw have TACS modelling
