SPEEDAM 2024 TUTORIAL: Real-Time Hardware-In-the-Loop Simulation for Enabling Active Power Systems

The upcoming 27th edition of the International Symposium on Power Electronics, Electrical Drives, Automation, and Motion (SPEEDAM 2024), set to be held in Ischia, Italy, from June 19-21, 2024, will feature a tutorial on Real-Time Hardware-In-the-Loop Simulation for Enabling Active Power Systems.

Tutorial Details:

Title: Real-Time Hardware-In-the-Loop Simulation for Enabling Active Power Systems

Instructors:

  • Prof. Manuel Barragán-Villarejo – University of Sevilla, Spain
  • Prof. Goran Dobrić – School of Electrical Engineering of Belgrade, Serbia
  • Prof. Pablo Eguia – University of the Basque Country UPV/EHU, Spain
  • Prof. Aditya Shekhar – Delft University of Technology, Netherlands

This tutorial will shed light on the innovative use of Hardware-in-the-Loop (HIL) simulation in power systems analysis, offering a deep dive into real-time simulation techniques.The tutorial will cover:

  • Overview of Real-Time Simulations: An in-depth exploration of Control HIL (C-HIL) and Power HIL (P-HIL) methodologies.
  • Benefits, Applications, and Challenges: Detailed discussion on the advantages, practical applications, and challenges associated with real-time HIL simulations.
  • Case Studies:
    • Case Study 1: Transition from simulation to prototyping of a Voltage Source Converter (VSC) through C-HIL.
    • Case Study 2: Evaluation of the performance of a protection relay in real-world scenarios.

Special Emphasis:

The tutorial will focus on power system applications, particularly those involving networks with high penetration of renewable energy sources using converter interfaced generators. Participants will gain valuable insights from practical demonstrations and comprehensive analyses, enhancing their understanding of modern power systems.
