Electrical Module This module enables the user to design the electrical layout of a wind farm.
Specifically it will:
• Check for overloading of transformers, cables and lines
• Calculate the size of capacitor/reactor banks needed to correct the power factor at a particular point, referred to as power factor correction devices, or PFCDs
• Calculate lengths of underground cables and overhead lines, taking topography and gradients into account
• Calculate electrical losses for cables, lines and transformers.
• Calculate annual reactive power production and consumption for turbines, cables, transformers, lines, PFCDs and their annual value.
The Electrical Module has a user friendly, intuitive interface, and the properties of the different components are stored in a Library file, which can be updated and consulted as required. |
