Análisis de flujo de carga dinámico a largo plazo

A curve library is included in Eaton's CYME software to allow the user to create their own long-term dynamics curve models along with generation curve models and motor curve models. The Long-Term Dynamics Analysis module uses the following curves:

• Insolation
• Wind speed
• Load
• Generation
• Motor

Detailed distributed generator models, such as wind energy conversion systems (WECS), are available. Eaton's CYME software features a detailed PV system model for which the output function is represented by manufacturer data such as:

• Insolation curve model
• Current at maximum point
• Voltage at maximum point

With the Long-Term Dynamics Analysis module, time-series simulations can be performed to assess how DER output profile affects:

• Voltage regulators
• Load tap changers
• Capacitors

The user can specify the activation time delay, tap changer delay and mechanism delay data of the regulators and LTCs tap changing algorithm in order to prevent unnecessary switching due to voltage fluctuations. Time delays are also available for shunt capacitors and switchable shunt banks to specify closing and tripping delays. The user also has the option to start the analysis at any moment in time (other than zero) in order to include time-controlled capacitors in the analysis.

Voltage regulators have four reset modes: fast, induction disc, delay and delay freeze reset.

The presence of battery energy storage systems has increased to support the importance of DER integration and to allow peak-shaving.

The energy storage model takes into account charge and discharge delays, and features the following controls:

• No monitoring: time driven and load shape modes
• Power monitoring: power driven, power peak shaving, power following, power leveling modes
• DER monitoring: DER driven, DER leveling, DER support and DER smoothing modes

Time-based simulation results are illustrated in comprehensive graphs. Reports are available for device controls such as regulator tap changers, and for the penetration level of each type of distributed generation in the network. Detailed reports and charts are also available for monitored devices. Power engineers can easily evaluate the performance of the system with or without DER, determine the impact of different DER locations and evaluate the effect of different variable profiles.

The Long-Term Dynamics Analysis module is a powerful tool to evaluate solar array and wind farm impacts on the power system, preparing the network for tomorrow’s higher DER penetration levels.
