Experiment Specification Definition
ID | TC15.01.01 |
---|---|
Reference to Test Specification | 15.01 |
Title of Experiment | Combined Control and Power Hardware-in-the-Loop simulation for testing Smart grid control algorithm |
Research Infrastructure | Electric Energy Systems Laboratory (ICCS-NTUA) |
Experiment Realisation | Smart grid control algorithm for optimal operation of distribution network with voltage regulating assets and DERS. Hardware MGCC for implementation of industrial communication scheme and hardware inverter for validation in real conditions. |
Experiment Setup (concrete lab equipment) |
|
Experimental Design and Justification | A low voltage residential network will be designed in RTDS. The network will consist of OLTC, BESS, DERs and loads. The CVC algorithm running on a computer will manage all the devices of the network that are capable of regulating the voltage. The MGCC will communicate with the PC to send network measurements and receive assets’ setpoints. Additionally, a hardware PV inverter will be connected with RTDS to validate the algorithm and the communication scheme in real conditions. |
Precision of equipment and measurement uncertainty | Software real-time measurements from RTDS, 50μs simulation step |
Storage of experiment data | Matlab files and Excel files |
