Features

The Network Reduced Power System (NRPS) Model is a powerful tool for modeling electric grids of (virtual) synchronous machines. This repository contains files for running the Nonlinear Kuramoto, the NRPS model, the Friction Enhanced Power System (FEPS) model, the Reactive Active Power Power System (RAPS) model.

Getting started

To use the NRPS Model MATLAB code, follow these steps:

1. Clone this repository: git clone https://github.com/FinduschkaLi/NRPS.git
2. Open MATLAB and navigate to the project directory.
3. Run the file example_NRPS.m to see an example of how to use the models.
