NAME Tentsio baxuko korronte zuzeneko (DC) mikrosarea
48 V-ko tentsio nominaleko mikrosare bat da, hainbat energia metatze-sistema eta eguzki panel dc-dc bihurgailuen bidez integratzen dituena. Hortaz gain, elikadura-iturri eta karga programagarri bat daude generazio eta kontsumo profilak emulatzeko. Mikrosare honen helburu nagusia biltegiratze eta generazio sistemen simulazio modeloak eta kontrol teknikak frogatzea, aztertzea eta balioztatzea da, bai eta sistema elektrikoetarako energia-kudeaketako estrategiak ere.
FIELDS OF APPLICATION

Product validation (HW/SW) for electricity grids
MOST OUTSTANDING EQUIPMENT AND COMPONENTS
-
200DCDC750DE MSc 7 kW bidirectional dc-dc converter
Bidirectional dc-dc converter with a nominal current of 120 A and a maximum current of 200 A.
Nominal input voltage of 750 V and nominal output voltage range of 360-750 V.
Efficiency of 85-97%.
It is controlled through analogical setpoints. -
500 W custom buck-boost converter
There are 5 four-switch buck-boost converters with 500 W nominal power and 48 V nominal voltage controlled by Texas Instruments TMS320F28335 DSPs. These converters are used to connect the generation and storage systems to the microgrid.
Any control strategy can be implemented in these controllers by directly generating C code or through Simulink models. -
62020H-150S Chroma 2 kW power supply
2 kW controllable DC source (maximum values of 150 V/40 A) with different functions. Can be remotely controlled by the Chroma Softpanel control panel (together with the programmable load described below) to emulate generation and load profiles on the microgrid. In addition, it can be programmed as a set of solar panels using other Chroma software, to test different MPPT techniques or dc converters against this solar panel emulator.
Another advantage is that it can be remotely controlled using LabVIEW (there are VIs developed by Chroma for this purpose).
It connects to the computer using serial communication. -
63210 Chroma 15 kW controllable load
15 kW dissipative load with different charging modes: constant current, constant resistance and constant power.
Can be controlled remotely from Chroma Softpanel and also through LabVIEW.
It connects to the computer using serial communication. -
SN5195 Speedgoat hardware-in-the-loop (HIL) platform
The Speedgoat input/output modules installed on this platform are IO204 (parallel digital I/O module), IO334 (Simulink programmable FPGA analog I/O module), IO334(2), and IO334-21 (an I/O signal conditioning plug-in for IO3XX FPGA I/O modules to convert LVCMOS back lines to TTL, with Simulink controller blocks).
This equipment allows real-time simulations of physical systems (electrical systems, electronic converters, etc.), allowing control techniques to be validated on external control and energy management platforms.
SERVICES OFFERED BY THE ASSET
Rapid control prototyping (RCP)
Design and validation of controls and modulation techniques of power electronic converters through the real-time simulation platform.
Validation of 48 V nominal voltage dc-dc converter topologies
The microgrid allows the integration of any type of dc-dc converter of nominal voltage of 48 V on the network side for the integration of generation systems, energy storage or loads in close to reality conditions.
Validation of control platforms and control strategies in real-time
Testing of proprietary control platforms and design and validation of control and management strategies with plants simulated in real time on the HIL platform. Possibility of performing tests under non-ideal conditions and in the event of grid or emulated system failures.
Validation of converter control techniques and energy asset management strategies
The microgrid allows validation of proprietary low-level control techniques for dc-dc converters and energy management strategies through the Texas Instruments control cards (programmed through Simulink) and the monitoring platform developed in LabView that communicates with all devices.
