Background
The use of simulation software for analysis, design, understanding and control of electrical grids and systems is becoming increasingly common if not standardised. It often allows optimal choices to be made while limiting technical risks and can be a judicious substitute to acquiring costly test benches and measurements.
Requirement
The great calculation possibilities offered by simulation and calculation tools such as ETAP, CYME, EDSA, PSIM, EMTP, Matlab-Simulink, PowerFactory, etc.. and this necessarily implies a certain complexity of use. The use of these tools is not possible without prior training making their operation possible.
However, for a training to be effective it must be applied to actual cases relating closely to your own problems. It must not simply be about the tool but also the method (choice of parameters, making of assumptions, analysis of results) in order to master the use of the calculation tool.
Service principle
Through its experience over more than 10 years in numerical simulation and the daily use of electrotechnical calculation tools by its study engineers in a variety of applications, Capsim can assist you in learning to use simulation and calculation software :
- Grid sizing software : Depending on the modules, ETAP, EDSA, CYME, CANECO, etc allowing the calculation of power flows, short-circuits, harmonics, stability, protection plan, etc.
- Calculation software for electromagnetic transients and multi-physical systems : PSIM, EMTP, Matlab Simulink and PSCAD calculate specific transient phenomena or specific components (power electronics, electromechanical components, electro-thermal components, etc.)
Dependent on your needs, Capsim offers you an entirely personalized training programme from the point of view of both duration and content. The training can, for example, be based on a model of your project which Capsim has prepared for you beforehand or be based on the performance of a standard study of your application. It is delivered by an expert study engineer with significant experience of industrial simulations.
Results
Hence you will be able to master all the potential of the simulation tools that you possess and become autonomous in using, configuring and updating the models made available to you.
