This paper describes the background of Electromagnetic Transients Program (EMTP) and reviews original EMTP development at Bonneville Power Administration of the US Department of Energy starting from 1966 to 1984. Then, the paper briefly explains the development and present situation of four EMTPs, that is, ATP-EMTP, EMTP-RV (now EMTP®), EMTDC/PSCAD and XTAP. In addition, the line/cable parameters and the modeling methods prepared in EMTPs are described, and related problems are explained. Finally, the recent trend and future of electromagnetic transient simulations are discussed. © 2020 Institute of Electrical Engineers of Japan. Published by Wiley Periodicals LLC.

电磁瞬变计划：历史与未来

本文介绍了电磁瞬变计划（EMTP）的背景，回顾了美国能源部邦纳维尔电力管理局从 1966 年到 1984 年的原始 EMTP 发展，然后简要说明了四种 EMTP 的发展和现状，即、ATP-EMTP、EMTP-RV（现为 EMTP®）、EMTDC/PSCAD 和 XTAP。此外，还描述了EMTPs中准备的线路/电缆参数和建模方法，并解释了相关问题。最后，讨论了电磁瞬态仿真的最新趋势和未来。© 2020 日本电气工程师学会。由 Wiley Periodicals LLC 出版。
