- 2. Contents • Introduction • Electrical Power System software • What is the difference between them? • Matlab • Neplan • Easy Power • Spard • Powerworld • DigSILENT • Conclusions
- 3. Introduction • Due to the advancement of technologies in the field of power systems, the analysis of these becomes increasingly complex and therefore it requires the use of computational tools that help us with this wasteful work. http://www.cooperindustries.com/content/dam/public/powersystems/products/power_engineering/images/spotlight/banner_CYME1.jpg
- 4. Electrical Power System software In the United States alone, power systems engineering is a $100 billion industry. The goal of these systems is to ensure that potential electrical power problems are "engineered-out" of the design, prior to a facility being constructed.
- 5. Electrical Power System software There are a wide range of electrical engineering tests that can be performed on a power systems CAD model. These include tests for: • Short Circuit Analysis • AC and DC Arc Flash • Protective Device Coordination • Power Flow • Cable Pulling • Power System Reliability • Electromagnetic Transient Analysis • Cable Ampacity • Induction Motor Parameter Estimation • Transmission Line Parameters • Power System Optimization • Advanced Substation Grounding Grid Design • Advanced Motor Starting • Voltage Stability and Contingency Analysis
- 6. What is the difference between them?
- 7. Matlab • It is useful in order to do simple simulations or without big complexity. • Direct access to MATLAB and simulink environment. • Model calibration can be added, which enables parameter estimation.
- 8. Matlab • It has problems with specific analysis • Only mathematical modeling. • Model overview is not as good as in programs that enable electrical modeling. • Many models only include part of the behavior of actual components
- 9. NEPLAN • Neplan offers the first web-based power system engineering software. • It Counts with analysis of water, gas and district heating networks. • It has compatibility with a lot of programming languages such as C++ or with Matlab. • No other tool on the market provides so many analysis functions for transmission, distribution, industrial, marine and offshore networks.
- 10. Easy Power • EasyPower is used by some branches of the government • It is easy to use because the graphical interface is similar with other electrical softwares • You can add or modify any library of the program in order to enhance it and add new devices and features • It is compatible with other programs like Autocad and you can import or export files in .dwg
- 11. SPARD • Turnkey systems integrating SPARD modules with SCADA and commercial information systems CIS, ERP and Hardware configurations and supply. • In our country it counts with courses, training and customer support includes IVR (Interactive Voice Response). • SPARD counts with mobile solutions to run on computers, smartphones or tablets. • It has a Geographic Information System (GIS) specially designed for electrical networks. It enables the creation of grid elements geographically.
- 12. PowerWorld • Powerworld accesses to power system information and analysis in a user-friendly format • Transmission atlas is a library where you can see the transmission system in north america • Powerworld offers generator cost models allow to change the price of the generation and get tendencies of locational marginal price • To visualize real-time conditions in the control room and remotely.
- 13. DigSILENT • DigSILENT is simple to use and run simulations i.e with load flow anylisis. • It offers an Techno- Economic evaluation of grid expansion strategies. • Provides a reliable central protection settings database and management system for the complete power system substation data. • DIgSILENT Grid Code v1.0, in response to the need to verify if a generator is compliant with local Grid Code requirements on the basis of unit tests executed.
- 14. Conclusions • In recent years have been a big development of software and they count nowadays with a great industry. • In the market exist a wide range of electrical power system software each one of them with different features and performance. • The choice of any of them depends on you and the requirement of the analysis and the complexity of this.
