电机和驱动器的实时仿真带来许多好处。 HYPERSIM是一款全数字实时电力系统模拟器，最初基于大型并行超级计算机，现在适应了新的硬件平台，以增加其灵活性和可访问性。本文提出了一种称为 PC 集群的新硬件架构，用于复杂电力系统网络（包括电力电子设备）的实时仿真。 PC 集群由通过高速网络互连的多台商用 PC 组成。这个用于HYPERSIM模拟器的新硬件平台完全基于现成的组件（COTS），例如商用主板、PCI输入/输出（I/O）板和通信板。本文介绍了实时并行模拟器的总体实现。详细介绍了仿真的各个方面，例如通信、计算、同步、I/O 访问和采集。为了在真实模拟中评估新硬件平台的性能，提出了电机驱动的完整应用。这种新的硬件技术为电力系统工程师带来了有趣的好处。现在可以更轻松地访问强大的仿真工具，以执行精确且完整的电力系统研究。
Many benefits come with the real-time simulation of electric machinery and drives. HYPERSIM, a fully digital real-time power system simulator, originally based on large parallel supercomputer, is now adapted to a new hardware platform, in order to increase its flexibility and accessibility. This paper presents a new hardware architecture, called PC-cluster, for real-time simulation of complex power system networks, including power electronics. A PC-cluster consists of several commodity PC interconnected with high-speed network. This new hardware platform for the HYPERSIM simulator is completely based on components-off-the-shelf (COTS), such as commercial motherboard, PCI input/output (I/O) board and communication board. The general implementation of the real-time parallel simulator is introduced in this paper. All aspects of the simulation, such as communication, calculation, synchronization, I/O access and acquisition, are presented in detail. To evaluate the performance of the new hardware platform in a real simulation, a complete application of electric machine drive is presented. This new hardware technology is bringing interesting benefits to power system engineers. It is now easier to have access to powerful simulation tools, in order to perform precise and complete power system studies.
