Computer-Aided Power System Design
Abstract
This paper presents the Computer-Aided Power System Design (CAPSD) computer program. This program allows for the output-to-input design of high power systems interactively. CAPSD is basically an executive routine which ties together various high-power subprograms each of which performs a vital (or at least useful) analysis to perform a piece of a total high-power system design. The design program is written in ANSI FORTRAN IV and utilizes routines also written in FORTRAN IV. CAPSD can readily be adapted to process any high-power design program. The program is implemented on both the IBM 370/165 and CDC 6600 model machines. Initial testing of the program has generated enthusiasm in the executive approach of the software as an increase in the use of the power design routines due to the ease of data entry at the interactive level.
