Powering the smart cities with big data and predictive analytics

Powering the smart cities with big data and predictive analytics

We think of the Electrical Infrastructure as a bi-directional “transactional energy” machine. Residences, Commercial/Industrial Sites, Airports/Ports, Campuses are all candidates for deployment of Distributed Energy Resources. Some of these sites due to their critical nature, or pure economics, may consider even becoming a Microgrid. How can PI+ETAP be used to help optimize/manage DERs/Microgrids by the user

Motor Acceleration analysis for floating platform

Motor Acceleration analysis for floating platform

Study case with two distant floating units interconnected with a subsea cable and fed by gas turbine generators. ETAP software has been used for motor starting analysis. A discussion about the choice of motor and generator models is developed and the comparison between calculation methods is presented. A particular focus is made on motor starting methods when direct on line is not possible, including soft starter simulation and VSD representation.

Modeling Large Grounding Grids

Modeling Large Grounding Grids

This presentation discusses the modeling of two large fossil fuel generating stations in Texas. One station was constructed with UFER grounds, zinc ground rods, and insulated conductors for connecting the zinc ground rods. Different techniques employed for successful solutions within the existing capabilities of the ETAP grounding module and interpretation of results will be presented.

Modeling a complex electrical network: Rumaila oil field ETAP electrical model

Modeling a complex electrical network: Rumaila oil field ETAP electrical model

This presentation will describe some of the Rumaila Oil Field gathering methods, calculations, limitations, relay protection reviews, and future plans of the ROF electrical distribution system. The ROF ETAP electrical model will support a safe, reliable, documented, and analyzed electrical distribution system and expanded to arc-flash calculations and the ETAP Real-Time.

Model-based integrated solutions for oil & gas production fields

Model-based integrated solutions for oil & gas production fields

This presentation will showcase KOC Electrical Information Manager System (EIMS). The main objective of EIMS is to automate the process of reserving power supplies and updating by interfacing between GIS and ETAP programs in all KOC Assets.

Microgrids at Work: Real-World Business Case Examples

Microgrids at Work: Real-World Business Case Examples

An in depth discussion Microgrids can deliver enhanced reliability, energy and cost-efficiency, as well as environmental benefits. This discussion will walk you through the key drivers for "why a microgrid", "what types of microgrids there are" and "how a microgrid is developed"

Microgrid Solutions and Business Case Examples

Microgrid Solutions and Business Case Examples

This presentation will discuss how Microgrids can deliver enhanced reliability, energy and cost-efficiency, as well as environmental benefits. This presentation will highlight how ETAP software was used to design and model a microgrid consisting of new and existing infrastructure. 

Low Voltage Arc Flash hazard assessment using ETAP

Low Voltage Arc Flash hazard assessment using ETAP

DeltaSE has been tasked with updating some facilities to the latest standard by providing Arc Flash analysis, field assessment and training to our Clients utilizing ETAP. This presentation will highlight how ETAP was used as a tool to help our clients and discuss some of the challenges ahead with low voltage arc flash hazard assessments.

Integrated System Modeling for Traction Power Systems

Integrated System Modeling for Traction Power Systems

Network Rail owns and operates the main line railway infrastructure of Great Britain. Approximately half of the network is electrified, including a substantial DC electrified network in the South East, fed by a 33 kV HV three-phase network. Network Rail has transferred its standard system models for this HV network to ETAP. This presentation gives an overview of the use of ETAP for this system, and the challenges for the future.
