DESIGN OF REAL-WORLD ELECTRICAL ENGINEERING PRODUCTS USING FRONT-END 3D SIMULATION & OPTIMIZATION TECHNOLOGIES

POLOPT/ Laplace: Module for Electrostatic Analysis

Case study 1: Circuit breaker design

  • Efficient  prototype design with the aid of 3D Simulation,
  • Increased understanding of dielectric stress in GIS,
  • Reduce process thanks to simulation-based design,
  • Field analysis of a Generator Circuit Breaker is accomplished,
  • All components like breaking chamber with cooling ribs, current and voltage transformers, capacitors, surge arrestors, disconnector, cables, enclosure etc. are encountered in the simulation model,
  • Dielectric criteria are checked to prove the prescribed BIL.
