Research Labs lets students, research teams and associates access network models and analytical tools such as power flow analysis, short circuit analysis, transient stability analysis and more. Paladin DesignBase Research Labs is our solution for universities and others conducting research into power system design. This feature is being used for harmonic analysis of offshore platform fed by long subsea cables. User can define impedances for selected elements in the network. Special user-defined harmonic impedances. Improved GUI with Spreadsheet implementation enables quicker edits and changes in cable installation cases. New function to vary percentage of current returning through sheath, shield, concentric neutral or skid wire.
Enables users to directly copy and paste 3-phase, DC, and single phase data from text editor to Microsoft Excel and vice versa. New user friendly spreadsheet implementation. Enables use of two instantaneous segments. Coordination curves can now be entered directly into single-phase equipment. Scenario-Dependent DC short circuit temperatures.įully integrated capability to simulate effects of multiple temperature variations on DC system faults.Īugments IEC-61363 motor short circuit model with a new user defined percent rating of let-through current. New Case Study feature that enables saving customized short circuit options.Įxtended computation of thermal currents to LG, LL, and LLG faults Provides options to simultaneously display several IEC-61363 short circuit components on the one line diagram. Introduces advanced inverter options for accurate calculations. Improved photovoltaic short circuit model. Enables easy setup of multiple maximum and minimum fault calculations. New Impedance Tolerance feature for generators, transformers and feeders. Seamlessly provides instant comparison of short circuit results and bus ratings. New Bus Short Circuit Evaluation feature (PDE). The Paladin DesignBase Unbalanced Load Flow module provides load flow analysis on unbalanced networks that are built with any combination of phases and configurations. In today’s ever evolving electrical networks, power flow solutions must be able to model the components and special features of the system and the unsymmetrical characteristics with good accuracy.
