Power Hardware in the Loop

Power hardware in the loop (PHiL) is a variant of the original HiL concept. The concept of HIL is retained and supplemented by additional power -read amplifier- in the loop. In this way, the HIL concept is made suitable for controlling physical components or subsystems that require more power. Think of testing or designing electric motors, transformers or inverters. In a PHIL system, the equipment to be tested (for example, an inverter) is integrated into a test rig with real-time (...)

Testing of ElecTesting of Electric Hydrogen

With increasing environmental pressures resulting from the long-term use of traditional fossil fuels, the development and use of clean energy has become a major agenda item worldwide. Hydrogen energy is considered to be the most important energy source in the 21st century. This clean form of energy has the advantages of zero pollution, high efficiency, abundant resources and a wide range of applications. The use of hydrogen produces no CO2 emissions and has clean and pure water as a by-product. (...)

TESTING EV CHARGERS AND FAST CHARGERS

The safe, convenient and efficient charging and discharging of electric vehicles is essential for the breakthrough of electromobility. High demands are placed on the interface between the charging point and the electric vehicle. The charge point must also meet high standards when feeding power back into the grid to guarantee grid quality and stability. For the optimisation and further development of these crucial factors, extensive tests with network emulation and vehicle emulation are indispensable. These are therefore the two most (...)

Efficiency measurements on electric motors

Efficiency measurements on electric motors

More and more often, electric motors are controlled with frequency converters. This is in order to achieve a higher efficiency. But how efficient is this motor control actually? For accurate measurements of the entire drive system, we need to measure the entire drive chain. In this example we assume a three-phase AC power supply which is rectified to a DC power supply for the frequency inverter. Next, we measure the electrical output of the AC drive and the mechanical energy (...)
