thermal model

A set of Matlab scripts and functions to simulate a Central Chilled Water Plant consisting of an aggregate cooling load (an aggregate of multiple buildings), a TES (thermal energy storage) system, two chillers and two cooling towers. Read the readme to learn more, and on how to run the model for simulation.

This is the dynamic transformer thermal model benchmarking platform developed by the CIGRE A2.60 working group.

One of the objectives of the CIGRE A2.60 working group “Dynamic Thermal Behaviour of Power Transformers” is to review the existing standard and state-of-the-art Dynamic Transformer Thermal Model (DTTM), identify and evaluate possible modelling improvements, and propose recommendations for improvement of the IEC 60076 standard DTTM. To achieve this goal, an open-source benchmarking platform for evaluation of DTTM has been developed. The platform enables transparent, objective, and repeatable simulation, visualisation, and evaluation of accuracy and reliability of non-proprietary and proprietary DTTMs.

If you are interested to evaluate your DTTM or help develop the DTTM benchmarking platform, please contact CIGRE WG A2.60 convener - tim.gradnik(at)eimv.si
