Buildings.Electrical.Interfaces.Impedance Buildings.Electrical.Interfaces.Impedance

Partial model representing a generalized impedance

Buildings.Electrical.Interfaces.Impedance

Information

This model represents a generalized interface for an impedance.

The model has a single generalized electric terminal of type Buildings.Electrical.Interfaces.Terminal that can be redeclared. The impedance can be of different types:

  1. resistive,
  2. inductive,
  3. resistive and inductive,
  4. capacitive, and
  5. resistive and capacitive.

The values of the resistance R, capacitance C and inductance L can be specified as parameters of the model.

The values of the resistance R, capacitance C and inductance L can also be specified by using the input variables y_R, y_C, and y_L that are Real values between [0,1].
These input values are enabled by the boolean flags use_R_in, use_L_in, and use_C_in.

Example

If the flag use_R_in = true, the value of R is computed as

R = Rmin + yR (Rmax - Rmin)

Buildings.Electrical.Interfaces.Load Buildings.Electrical.Interfaces.Load

Partial model for a generic load

Buildings.Electrical.Interfaces.Load

Information

This model represents a generic load that can be extended to represent either a DC or an AC load.

The model has a single generalized electric terminal of type Buildings.Electrical.Interfaces.Terminal that can be redeclared. The generalized load is modeled as an impedance whose value can change. The value of the impedance can change depending on the value of the parameter mode, which is of type Buildings.Electrical.Types.Load:

Mode Description Explanation
Buildings.Electrical.Types.Load.FixedZ_steady_state fixed Z steady state The load consumes exactly the power specified by the parameter P_nominal.
Buildings.Electrical.Types.Load.FixedZ_dynamic fixed Z dynamic The load consumes exactly the power specified by the parameter P_nominal at steady state. Depending on the type of load (e.g., inductive or capacitive) different dynamics are represented.
Buildings.Electrical.Types.Load.VariableZ_P_input variable Z P input The load consumes exactly the power specified by the input variable Pow.
Buildings.Electrical.Types.Load.VariableZ_y_input variable Z y input The load consumes exactly the a fraction of the nominal power P_nominal specified by the input variable y.

Conventions

It is assumed that the power P of the load is positive when produced (e.g., the load acts like a source) and negative when consumed (e.g., the source acts like a utilizer).

Linearized models

The model has a Boolean parameter linearized that by default is equal to false. When the power consumption of the load is imposed, this introduces a nonlinear equation between the voltage and the current of the load. This flag is used to select between a linearized version of the equations or the original nonlinear ones.
When the linearized version of the model is used, the parameter V_nominal has to be specified. The nominal voltage is needed to linearize the nonlinear equations.

Note: A linearized model will not consume the nominal power if the voltage at the terminal differs from the nominal voltage.

Buildings.Electrical.Interfaces.PartialWindTurbine Buildings.Electrical.Interfaces.PartialWindTurbine

Partial model of a wind turbine with power output based on table as a function of wind speed

Buildings.Electrical.Interfaces.PartialWindTurbine

Information

Model of a wind turbine whose power is computed as a function of wind-speed as defined in a table.

Input to the model is the local wind speed. The model requires the specification of a table that maps wind speed in meters per second to generated power Pt in Watts. The model has a parameter called scale with a default value of one that can be used to scale the power generated by the wind turbine. The generated electrical power is

P = Pt scale

For example, the following specification (with default scale=1) of a wind turbine

  WindTurbine_Table tur(
    table=[3.5, 0;
           5.5,   100;
           12, 900;
           14, 1000;
           25, 1000]) "Wind turbine";

yields the performance shown below. In this example, the cut-in wind speed is 3.5 meters per second, and the cut-out wind speed is 25 meters per second, as entered by the first and last entry of the wind speed column. Below and above these wind speeds, the generated power is zero.

Partial model of a generic source.

Buildings.Electrical.Interfaces.Source

Information

This model represents a generic source.

In case the phase system has PhaseSystem.m > 0 and thus the connectors are over determined, the source can be selected to serve as reference point. The parameters potentialReference and definiteReference are used to define if the source model should be selected as source for the reference angles theta or not. More information about overdetermined connectors can be found in Olsson Et Al. (2008).

Buildings.Electrical.Interfaces.Terminal

Generalized electric terminal

Information

This connector represents a generalized electric terminal. The generalization is made possible by the replaceable package Buildings.Electrical.Interfaces.Terminal.PhaseSystem. The package PhaseSystem can be one of the packages contained in Buildings.Electrical.PhaseSystems. Using this approach allows to represent DC, single phase AC and multi phases balanced and unbalanced AC systems with the same connector.

This connector is compatible with the following Modelica libraries:

The connector is overdetermined since the number of effort variables is higher than the number of flow variables. This happens when the phase system has a number of reference angles PhaseSystem.m > 0. The over-determined connectors are defined and used in such a way that a Modelica tool is able to remove the superfluous but consistent equations arriving at a balanced set of equations, based on a graph analysis of the connection structure. The models have to use ad-hoc constructs specified by the Modelica language to handle this situation. More information can be found in Olsson Et Al. (2008).

More details about the generalized electrical terminal can be found in Franke and Wiesmann (2014).

Buildings.Electrical.Interfaces.VariableVoltageSource Buildings.Electrical.Interfaces.VariableVoltageSource

Partial model of a generic variable voltage source.

Buildings.Electrical.Interfaces.VariableVoltageSource

Information

This model represents a generic variable voltage source. The model has a boolean flag use_V_in, when this flag is equal to true the voltage of the source is imposed by the input variable V_in. When the flag is equal to false the voltage source is equal to the parameter V.

In case the phase system adopted has PhaseSystem.m > 0 and thus the connectors are over determined, the source can be selected to serve as reference point. The parameters potentialReference and definiteReference are used to define if the source model should be selected as source for the reference angles or not. More information about overdetermined connectors can be found in Olsson Et Al. (2008).
