Spectrum Power 3 Programming - Siemens

Distribution Network ApplicationsVolt/VAR ControlThis course is a combination of lecture, demo and hands-on exercises. It covers the use and configurationof the Volt/VAR Control (VVC) application. After running a VVC analysis, the generated results areexamined to reveal the available details about the proposals and the possibilities for tuning the analysisprocess. The tunable parameters are explained, and some exercises are conducted to see the effects ofvarious changes. Finally, the management-related tools and techniques are covered to support troubleshooting.General InformationCourse Code: DN203Length: 2 daysAudienceThis course is designed for engineers whoneed the details to efficiently utilize the DNAfunctions, including:• Software Engineers• Dispatcher Supervisors• Operation EngineersPrerequisites• Web browser basics• DNA system overview• Basics of distribution system modelingand operations• Experience in distribution system operationGoalsUpon completion of this course, the studentsshall be able to:• Describe the VVC network model andalgorithms.• Select the appropriate VVC options toselect the desired optimization.• Describe the purpose of the VVC tunableparameters and modify them.Topics• VVC Application Overview− Purpose of Volt/VAR Control− Adjustable Devices− Data Flow Overview• Using VVC with the Web UI− Running a VVC Analysis− Examining the Basic Results− Examining the Detailed Results− Lab 1 - Examining VVC Results• Model & Algorithm− Overview− Tunable Parameters− Lab 2 - Tuning VVC• VVC's External Interfaces− Service Oriented Architecture− Web-based User Interface− Lab 3 - Examining the Interfaces• Application Management− Starting and Stopping− Examining Log Files− Lab 4 - Debugging03/06/12Course Descriptions - 60 - Siemens Energy, Inc.Energy Automation
