For educational purposes the logical blocking system constitutes an indispensible protection/support by distinctly indicating and blocking non-allowed manoeuvres, ultimately preventing severe damage to the system.
The Power System Simulator comprises the complete chain of power distribution from generation, transformation, transmission, sub stations and distribution to consumers. Today, simulation plays an important roll in training people in various fields. With a simulator you can train people to make correct decisions under various operating conditions. All brought together in a highly elaborated SCADA environment.
Measurements and presentations are carried out by advanced microprocessor-based nodes, for instance digital bar graphs for synchronization procedures.
A wide selection of protective relays from world leader ABB can be chosen to satisfy any customer demand, this includes also ABB IED Relion (600) series which are compliant to the World Wide Power Industry. Power System Simulator is the only simulator for education that meets this requirement. The system comprises several advanced energy meters, each capable of displaying more than 30-parameters such as power factor and non-symmetrical loads.

It comprises the calorimeter, a calorimeter vessel, an outer double walled water vessel, electric stirrer gear, combined motor control gear and ignition unit, a Beckman type thermometer, and a charging unit with pressure gauges to facilitate the charging of the calorimeter with oxygen. The equipment is self-contained with the control unit housed in an instrument case that forms the base. A Briquetting Press is available as an optional extra and an additional calorimeter can also be supplied. No spanners are required and in use the rubber joint is protected by water so it may be used over and over again. The particular features of the calorimeter are the method of sealing and the method of ensuring ignition. The body of the calorimeter is screwed into the base and a seal is made with a special rubber joint when the two parts are finger-tight only. In order to make ignition 100% sure, great care has been devoted to the method of anchoring the ignition wire and maintaining electrical contact and to the support of the crucible. All these parts are made to a high degree of precision and the results are very satisfactory.

The unit is designed for blow or suction induced flow and can be assembled for operation in either the upward or downward mode, whichever is most convenient. The Aeroweb honeycomb matrix is suspended within a cylindrical, aluminum housing with the skirt of the matrix immersed in an annular oil reservoir in the base which serves both as an air seal and a viscous damper. A set of weights is provided with the instrument to facilitate static calibration of the strain gauge with an accuracy of 2%. The matrix is mounted on an axle in the frame and supported by precision ball bearings while the torque arm connected to the axle acts on a Wheatstone Bridge strain gauge transducer. Cussons Display Unit, used in conjunction with the swirl meter, is a mains operated instrument complete with power supplies, which converts the strain gauge measurement into a four element, LED digital readout.
Application:
In automotive and truck size engines for instance, a pressure drop of 254 mm water gauge is normally used. The illustration shows a typical test rig layout arranged for downward air flow, in which the clients manometer registers a constant pressure drop across the model which must always be high enough to ensure fully turbulent flow in order that the results can be applied to his own particular engine configuration.
