ATPDraw

http://www.emtp.org/tools.html
ATPDRAW was developed by Mr. Hoidalen of EFI Norway. It can be obtained from EEUG's Secure site.
It works under WinNT/95/98. This tool enables the user to create input data for ATP from the graphical circuit description. It does not support the reverse function (Create a graphical circuit description from an input data file ) for the present, although such request was issued.

ATP Editor

ATPEditor was developed by Chubu Electric Power Company in Japan. It works under WinNT/95/98. This tool enables the user to create input data for ATP from the graphical circuit description. Please note that the menus are all in Japanese.
It can be obtained from Secure FTP sites.
The directory is /from_japan/atpeditor/

Compiled TACS

Compiled TACS is being newly developed by Dr. W. Scott Meyer to overcome the slowness of MODELS and the lack of flexibility(function or IF THEN ELSE syntax cannot be used) of the current TACS. It is reported that MODELS is 5 or 10 times slower than the current TACS. The followings are extracted from Can/Am EMTP News Apr/1997.

Phase domain modeling of a Type-59-like, 3-phase S.M. (Type 58 SM Model)

Type 58 SM Model was developed to eliminate the instability of type59 model and the limitation of UM model. It solves in phase domain rather than d-q domain like type59. Dr. Okamoto and his colleague developed it and combined it into ATP. The new TPBIG with type59 SM model was released Apr. 1997. The following is the related portion of Can/Am EMTP Newsletter Apr/1997.
