        A Python-based tool for symbolic power system modeling and numerical analysis.
        
        # Why ANDES
        
        ANDES is by far easier to use for modeling power system devices than other 
        simulation tools such as 
        [PSAT](http://faraday1.ucd.ie/psat.html),
        [Dome](http://faraday1.ucd.ie/dome.html) and
        [PST](https://www.ecse.rpi.edu/~chowj/),
        while maintaining high numerical efficiency.
        
        ANDES produces accurate simulation results.
        For the Kundur's two-area system with GENROU, TGOV1 and EXDC2, ANDES produces almost identical 
        (<1% discrepancy) results to that from DSATools TSAT™.   
        
        | Generator Speed | Excitation Voltage |

        ANDES provides a descriptive modeling framework in a scripting environment.
        Modeling DAE-based devices is as simple as describing the mathematical equations.

        In ANDES, what you simulate is what you document. 
        ANDES automatically generates model documentation, and the docs always stay up to date.
        The screenshot below is the generated documentation for the implemented TGOV1 model.

        # Get Started with ANDES
        
        ANDES is a Python package and needs to be installed. 
        We recommend Miniconda if you don't insist on an existing Python environment.
        Downloaded and install the latest **64-bit** Miniconda3 for your platform from <https://conda.io/miniconda.html>.
        
        Step 1: (Optional) Open the *Anaconda Prompt* (shell on Linux and macOS) and create a new environment.
        
        Use the following command in the Anaconda Prompt: 
        
        ``` bash
        conda create --name andes python=3.7
        ```
        
        Step 2: Add the `conda-forge` channel and set it to default. Do
        
        ``` bash
        conda config --add channels conda-forge
        conda config --set channel_priority flexible
        ```
        
        Step 3: Activate the new environment
        
        This step needs to be executed every time a new Anaconda Prompt or shell is open. 
        At the prompt, do
        
        ``` bash
        conda activate andes
        ```
        
        Step 4: Download and Install ANDES
        
        - Download the latest ANDES source code from <https://github.com/cuihantao/andes/releases>.
        
        - Extract the package to a folder where source code resides. Try to avoid spaces in any folder name.
        
        - Change directory to the ANDES root directory, which contains ``setup.py``. In the prompt, run the following
         commands in sequence.
        
        ```bash
        conda install --file requirements.txt --yes
        conda install --file requirements-dev.txt --yes
        pip install -e .
        ```
        
        Observe if any error is thrown. If not, ANDES is successfully installed in the development mode.
        
        Step 5: Test ANDES
        
        After the installation, run ``andes selftest`` and check if all tests pass.
        
        # Run Simulations
        ANDES can be used as a command-line tool or a library. 
        The following explains the command-line usage, which comes handy to run studies. 
        
        For a tutorial to use ANDES as a library, visit the [interactive tutorial][tutorial].
        
        ANDES is invoked from the command line using the command `andes`.
        Running `andes` without any input is equal to `andes -h` or `andes --help`, 
        which prints out a preamble and help commands:
        
            ANDES 0.6.8 (Git commit id 0ace2bc0, Python 3.7.6 on Darwin)
            Session: hcui7, 02/09/2020 08:34:35 PM
            
            usage: andes [-h] [-v {10,20,30,40,50}] {run,plot,misc,prepare,selftest} ...
            
            positional arguments:
              {run,plot,misc,prepare,selftest}
                                    [run]: run simulation routine; [plot]: plot simulation
                                    results; [prepare]: run the symbolic-to-numeric
                                    preparation; [misc]: miscellaneous functions.
            
            optional arguments:
              -h, --help            show this help message and exit
              -v {10,20,30,40,50}, --verbose {10,20,30,40,50}
                                    Program logging level. Available levels are 10-DEBUG,
                                    20-INFO, 30-WARNING, 40-ERROR or 50-CRITICAL. The
                                    default level is 20-INFO.
        
        The first level of commands are chosen from `{run,plot,misc,prepare,selftest}`.
        Each command contains a group of subcommands, which can be looked up by appending `-h` to the first-level command. 
        For example, use `andes run -h` to look up the subcommands in `run`. 
        
        `andes` has an option for the program verbosity level, controlled by `-v` or `--verbose`.
        Accpeted levels are the same as in the `logging` module:
        10 - DEBUG, 20 - INFO, 30 - WARNING, 40 - ERROR, 50 - CRITICAL.
        To show debugging outputs, use `-v 10`.
        
        ## Step 1: Power Flow
        Pass the path to the case file to `andes run` to perform power flow calculation. 
        It is recommended to change directory to the folder containing the test case before running.
        
        The Kundur's two-area system can be located under `andes/cases/kundur` with the name`kundur_full.xlsx`.
        Locate the folder in your system and use `cd` to [change directory](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cd_(command).
        To run power flow calculation, do
        
        ```bash
        andes run kundur_full.xlsx
        ```
        
        Power flow reports will be saved to the directory where andes is called.
        The power flow report, named `kundur_full_out.txt`, contains four sections:
        - system statistics,
        - ac bus and dc node data,
        - ac line data,
        - the initialized values of algebraic variables and state variables.
        
        ## Step 2: Dynamic Analyses
        ANDES comes with two dynamic analysis routines: time-domain simulation and eigenvalue analysis.
        
        Option `-r` or `-routine` is used to specify the routine,
        followed by the routine name. 
        Available routine names include `pflow,
        tds, eig`.
         
        - `pflow` is the default power flow calculation and can be omitted.
        - `tds` is for time domain simulation.
        - `eig` is for for eigenvalue analysis.
        
        To run time-domain simulation for `kundur_full.xlsx` in the current directory, do
        
        ``` bash
        andes run kundur_full.xlsx -r tds
        ```
        Two output files, ``kundur_full_out.lst`` and ``kundur_full_out.npy`` will be created for variable names
        and values, respectively.
        
        Likewise, to run eigenvalue analysis for `kundur_full.xlsx`, use
        
        ``` bash
        andes run kundur_full.xlsx -r eig
        ```
        
        The eigenvalue report will be written in a text file named ``kundur_full_eig.txt``.
        
        ## Step 3: Plot Results
        ``andes plot`` is the command-line tool for plotting.
        Currently, it only supports time-domain simulation data.
        Three arguments are needed: file name, x-axis variable index, and y-axis variable index (or indices).
        
        Variable indices can be looked up by opening the `kundur_full_out.lst` file as plain text.
        Index 0 is always the simulation time. 
        
        Multiple y-axis variable indices can be provided in eithers space-separated format or the Pythonic comma-separated
        style.
        
        To plot speed (omega) for all generators with indices 2, 8, 14, 20, either do
        
        ```bash
        andes plot kundur_full_out.npy 0 2 8 14 20
        ```
        or
        
        ```bash
        andes plot kundur_full_out.npy 0 2:21:6
        ```
        
        # Configure ANDES
        
        ANDES uses a config file to set runtime configs for system, routines and models. 
        The config file is loaded at the time when ANDES is invoked or imported.
        
        At the command-line prompt, 
        
        - ``andes misc --save`` saves all configs to a file. By default, it goes to ``~/.andes/andes.conf``.
        - ``andes misc --edit`` is a shortcut for editing the config file. It takes an optional editor name. 
        
        Without an editor name, the following default editor is used: 
        - On Microsoft Windows, it will open up a notepad.
        - On Linux, it will use the ``$EDITOR`` environment variable or use ``gedit`` by default.
        - On macOS, the default is vim.
        
        # Format Converter
        
        ## Input Converter
        ANDES recognizes a few input formats (MATPOWER, PSS/E and ANDES xlsx) and can convert input to the `xlsx` format.
        This function is useful when one wants to use models that are unique in ANDES.
         
        - `andes run CASENAME.ext --convert` performs the conversion to `xlsx`, where `CASENAME.ext` is the full test
         case name.
        - `andes run CASENAME.ext --convert-all` performs the conversion and create empty sheets for all supported models.
        - `andes run CASENAME.xlsx --add-book ADD_BOOK`, where `ADD_BOOK` is the workbook name (the sane as the model
         name) to be added.
         
        For example, to convert `wscc9.raw` in the current folder to the ANDES xlsx format, run 
         
        ```bash
        andes run wscc9.raw --convert
        ```
        The command will write the output to `wscc9.xlsx` in the current directory.
        
        To add models `GENROU` and `TGOV1` to the xlsx file `wscc9.xlsx`, run
        
        ```bash
        andes run wscc9.xlsx --add-book GENROU,TGOV1
        ```
        
        ## Output Converter
        The output converter is used to convert `.npy` output to a comma-separated (csv) file.
         
        To convert, do `andes plot OUTPUTNAME.npy -c `, where `OUTPUTNAME.npy` is the file name of the simulation output.
        
        For example, to convert `kundur_full_out.npy` (in the current directory) to a csv file, run
        
        ```bash
        andes plot kundur_full_out.npy -c
        ```
        The output will be written to `kundur_full_out.csv` in the current directory.
        
        # Model Development
        The steps to develop new models are outlined. 
        New models will need to be written in Python and incorporated in the ANDES source code.
        Models are placed under `andes/models` with a descriptive file name for the model type.
        
        If a new file is created, import the building block classes at the top of the file 
        
        ```python
        from andes.core.model import ModelData, Model
        from andes.core.param import IdxParam, NumParam, ExtParam
        from andes.core.var import Algeb, State, ExtAlgeb, ExtState
        from andes.core.service import ConstService, ExtService
        from andes.core.discrete import AntiWindupLimiter
        ```
        
        The TGOV1 model will be used to illustrate the model development process.
        
        ## Step 1: Define Parameters
        Create a class to hold parameters that will be loaded from the data file.
        The class inherits from `ModelData`
        
        ```python
        
        class TGOV1Data(ModelData):
            def __init__(self):
                self.syn = IdxParam(model='SynGen',
                                    info='Synchronous generator idx',
                                    mandatory=True,
                                    )
                self.R = NumParam(info='Speed regulation gain under machine base',
                                  tex_name='R',
                                  default=0.05,
                                  unit='p.u.',
                                  ipower=True,
                                  )
                self.wref0 = NumParam(info='Base speed reference',
                                      tex_name=r'\omega_{ref0}',
                                      default=1.0,
                                      unit='p.u.',
                                      )
        
                self.VMAX = NumParam(info='Maximum valve position',
                                     tex_name='V_{max}',
                                     unit='p.u.',
                                     default=1.2,
                                     power=True,
                                     )
                self.VMIN = NumParam(info='Minimum valve position',
                                     tex_name='V_{min}',
                                     unit='p.u.',
                                     default=0.0,
                                     power=True,
                                     )
        
                self.T1 = NumParam(info='Valve time constant',
                                   default=0.1,
                                   tex_name='T_1')
                self.T2 = NumParam(info='Lead-lag lead time constant',
                                   default=0.2,
                                   tex_name='T_2')
                self.T3 = NumParam(info='Lead-lag lag time constant',
                                   default=10.0,
                                   tex_name='T_3')
                self.Dt = NumParam(info='Turbine damping coefficient',
                                   default=0.0,
                                   tex_name='D_t',
                                   power=True,
                                   )
        ```
        
        Note that the example above has all the parameters loaded in one class. 
        In practice, it is recommended to create a base class for common parameters and let `TGOV2Data` inherit from it.
        See the code in `andes/models/governor.py` for the example. 
        
        ## Step 2: Define Externals
        Next, another class to hold the non-parameter instances is created. 
        The class inherits from `Model` and takes three positional arguments by the constructor.
        
        The code below defines parameters, variables and services retrieved from external models (specifically
        , generators).
        
        ```python
        class TGOV1Model(Model):
            def __init__(self, system, config):
                self.Sn = ExtParam(src='Sn',
                                   model='SynGen',
                                   indexer=self.syn,
                                   tex_name='S_m',
                                   info='Rated power from generator',
                                   unit='MVA',
                                   export=False,
                                   )
                self.Vn = ExtParam(src='Vn',
                                   model='SynGen',
                                   indexer=self.syn,
                                   tex_name='V_m',
                                   info='Rated voltage from generator',
                                   unit='kV',
                                   export=False,
                                   )
                self.tm0 = ExtService(src='tm',
                                      model='SynGen',
                                      indexer=self.syn,
                                      tex_name=r'\tau_{m0}',
                                      info='Initial mechanical input')
                self.omega = ExtState(src='omega',
                                      model='SynGen',
                                      indexer=self.syn,
                                      tex_name=r'\omega',
                                      info='Generator speed',
                                      unit='p.u.'
                                      )
        ```
        In addition, a service can be defined for the inverse of the gain
        
        ```python
                self.gain = ConstService(v_str='u / R',
                                         tex_name='G',
                                         )
        ```
        
        ## Step 3: Define Variables
        First of all, the turbine governor output modifies the generator power input. Therefore, the generator input
        variable should be retrieved by the governor. Next, internal variables can be defined.
        
        ```python
                # mechanical torque input of generators
                self.tm = ExtAlgeb(src='tm',
                                   model='SynGen',
                                   indexer=self.syn,
                                   tex_name=r'\tau_m',
                                   info='Mechanical power to generator',
                                   )
        
                self.pout = Algeb(info='Turbine final output power',
                                  tex_name='P_{out}',
                                  )
                self.wref = Algeb(info='Speed reference variable',
                                  tex_name=r'\omega_{ref}',
                                  )
                
                self.pref = Algeb(info='Reference power input',
                                  tex_name='P_{ref}',
                                  )
                self.wd = Algeb(info='Generator under speed',
                                unit='p.u.',
                                tex_name=r'\omega_{dev}',
                                )
                self.pd = Algeb(info='Pref plus under speed times gain',
                                unit='p.u.',
                                tex_name="P_d",
                                )
        
                self.LAG_x = State(info='State in lag transfer function',
                                   tex_name=r"x'_{LAG}",
                                   )
                self.LAG_lim = AntiWindupLimiter(u=self.LAG_x,
                                                 lower=self.VMIN,
                                                 upper=self.VMAX,
                                                 tex_name='lim_{lag}',
                                                 )
                self.LL_x = State(info='State in lead-lag transfer function',
                                  tex_name="x'_{LL}",
                                  )
                self.LL_y = Algeb(info='Lead-lag Output',
                                  tex_name='y_{LL}',
                                  )
        ```
         
        ## Step 4: Define Equations
        Set up the equation associated with **each** variable.
        Algebraic equations are in the form of `g(x, y) = 0`.
        Differential equations are in the form of `f(x, y) = \dot{x}`. 
        
        ```python
                self.tm.e_str = 'u*(pout - tm0)'
        
                self.wref.e_str = 'wref0 - wref'    
                self.pref.e_str = 'tm0 * R - pref'
                self.wd.e_str = '(wref - omega) - wd'
                self.pd.e_str='(wd + pref) * gain - pd'
        
                self.LAG_x.e_str = 'LAG_lim_zi * (1 * pd - LAG_x) / T1'
        
                self.LL_x.e_str = '(LAG_x - LL_x) / T3'
                self.LL_y.e_str='T2 / T3 * (LAG_x - LL_x) + LL_x - LL_y'
                self.pout.e_str = '(LL_y + Dt * wd) - pout'
        ```
        
        ## Step 5: Define Initializers
        Initializers are used to set up initial values for variables.
        Initializers are evaluated in the same sequence as the declaration of variables.
        Initializer evaluation results are set to the corresponding variable. 
        Usually, only internal variables (`Algeb` and `State`) require initializers.
        
        ```python
                self.wref.v_str = 'wref0'
                self.pout.v_str = 'tm0'
        
                self.LL_y.v_str = 'LAG_x'
                self.LL_x.v_str = 'LAG_x'
                self.LAG_x.v_str = 'pd'
        
                self.pd.v_str = 'tm0'
                self.wd.v_str = '0'
                self.pref.v_str = 'tm0 * R'
        ```
        
        Alternatively, equations and initializers can be passed to keyword arguments `e_str` and `v_str`, respectively
        , of the corresponding instance.
         
        ## Step 6: Finalize
        This step provides additional information on the model. 
        The group to which the device belongs need to be specified, and the routine this model supports need to updated.
        
        For example, TGOV1 belongs to the `TurbineGov` group, which is defined in `andes/models/group.py`.
        TGOV1 participates in the time-domain simulation and is not involved in power flow. 
        The snipet below is added to the constructor of `class TGOV1Model`.
        
        ```python
                self.group = 'TurbineGov'
                self.flags.update({'tds': True})
        ```
        
        Next, a `TGOV1` class need to be created as the final class. It is a bit boilerplate as of the current
        implementation.
        
        ```python
        class TGOV1(TGOV1Data, TGOV1Model):
            def __init__(self, system, config):
                TGOV1Data.__init__(self)
                TGOV1Model.__init__(self, system, config)
        ``` 
        
        One more step, the class needs to be added to the package `__init__.py` file to be loaded.
        Edit `andes/models/__init__.py` and add to `non_jit` whose keys are the file names and values are the classes in
        the file.
        To add `TGOV1`, locate the line with key `governor` and add `TGOV1` to the value list so that it looks like
        
        ```python
        non_jit = OrderedDict([
            # ...
            ('governor', ['TG2', 'TGOV1']),
            # ...
        ])
        ```
        
        Finally, run `andes prepare` from the command-line to re-generate code for the new model.
