Energy system studies
What is energy systems studies?
This is the set of electrical and multiphysics studies needed for system design. Thus they allow the understanding of normal or incidental transient behaviors.
Energy Systems Studies at Capsim
Functional analysis : to define the needs of a system. In addition, it makes it possible to measure the adequacy of a system or a solution.
Assistance with the design of systems : Capsim provides all the arguments necessary to make the choices inherent in the design of a system.
Study of electromagnetic transients : it allows first of all to check the risks related to electromagnetic transients. Then it highlights the problematic cases.
Reliability study : evaluates the influence of the ranges of parameters recipe on the good realization of the functional criteria. It then optimizes these ranges.
Incident consultancy : Capsim helps to identify and understand the origin of incidents that occurred on your installation.
Modelling of prime movers : analysis of the global context of modeling. Thus, Capsim deduces the strategy of development and validation of the numerical model.
Requirement When a transformer is energised, two main phenomena occur; an inrush current and a resulting voltage drop at its primary side. The amplitudes of these two phenomena depend greatly on the remnant (or residual) Read more…
Requirement Customer : CEA INES The breakthroughs in the field of power electronics regarding on one hand photovoltaic panels and on the other hand enable to consider higher levels of DC distribution voltage within PV power Read more…
Requirement Following the commissioning of the all electric ship’s power station, a phenomenon active power “pumping” (of several MW) between 2 diesel generators has been observed. This phenomenon is characterised by active power transfer in Read more…
Background The dynamic behaviour of mechanical torque sources driving alternators is fundamental in order ensure that the system frequency remains within the acceptable limits during load variations (connection/disconnection of loads, intermittence of renewable energy productions). Read more…
Background Overvoltages, overloads, power losses during a process, deterioration of distribution equipment or generators; these are all electrical incidents which sometimes occur in facilities or on electricity grids. Requirement Although they may sometimes have critical Read more…
Background The design of a system must ensure that it is capable of carrying out the functions for which it has been created. These conditions often require strict acceptance testing phase of the system parameters Read more…
Background A number of electrical phenomena corresponding to abrupt variations in the electrical variables of a system or a grid can be grouped together under the category of "electromagnetic transients". Here one can include phenomena Read more…
Background The design of an electrical power system or a multiphysical energy system (mixing various physical domains) goes through a certain number of steps and technical choices which are subject to hazards and risks, particularly Read more…
Background Good performance of a project begins with a clear definition of the requirements. Installation of a back-up generator, new equipment or a new simulation tool, for a company or on an industrial site, requires Read more…
Requirement Client’s project has to be in compliance with a requested level of reliability, availability and maintainability. A complete Reliability Report must be carried out to prove that the material of the installation leads to Read more…
