Kestrel is a new free electromagnetic transient (EMT) simulation software. The primary goal of Kestrel is to make power system simulation accessible and intuitive for students and universities.
It is designed to model and simulate:
- Power electronics, inverter control systems, and smart grid studies
- Design studies such as lightning, switching transient, and breaker transient recovery voltage (TRV)
- Distributed parameter transmission lines and wave propagation
- General transient circuit analysis
Features:
- Sophisticated plotting capabilities, including time domain, frequency domain, spectrogram, and phasor
- Ability to execute Python and MATLAB code from within a simulation and interface with circuit components.
- XML-based, human readable .kcf file format for saved circuits.
- Modern, intuitive ribbon interface
- Export directly to open source HDF5 file format for additional analysis in MATLAB or Python
- Use external data to program arbitrary current sources
Kestrel is currently under active development. Kestrel is proprietary, but free for evaluation purposes for personal or commercial use.
