This paper discusses the expanding role of modeling and simulation in the design and development of electrical power systems. The concepts of physics-based design and building blocks are introduced to show how complex systems may be simplified. However, the detail and complexity of tomorrow’s systems are beyond today’s tools. Computing power has increased to the point where physics-based design is possible. The aim of this paper is to discus the issues and opportunities for modeling and simulation in advanced system design.
