Electric grid dynamic/transient event (disturbance) simulations. It's essentially modeling the response of electromechanical equipment (generators and large loads), large solid state devices (utility scale renewables and fast-switching reactive devices), lumped load models, and protective devices to events on the electric system. The simulations run in ~1ms timesteps over 10-30 seconds of real world time (which can take 4-20 minutes of CPU time). Each event is independent and they parallelize pretty much linearly. Python multiprocessing is the lifeblood of this work. Edit: I guess I should be clear and say that the simulations themselves are running on a commercial software package (Fortran based) and I'm simply setting them up, spinning them off, and then processing all of the resulting data in Python.
