Electrical & Power

	ABB, Citeq ABB Canada, in conjunction with Hydro-Québec's CITEQ (Centre d'innovation sur le transport d'énergie du Québec), has used RT-LAB for power-system control applications.
	General Electric Transportation Systems (GETS) General Electric Transportation Systems (GETS) selected an RT-LAB Electrical Engineering Simulator (EES) to test DC-AC, AC-DC and cyclo converter controllers. The firing pulses of the controller are connected directly to the RT-LAB EES, which detects the pulse status and the time of occurrence of the turn-on and turn-off commands. The simulator computes the transients and returns voltages and currents to the controller through high-speed analog outputs within 50 µs.
	General Electric Transportation Systems Off Highway Vehicles GETS Off Highway Vehicles (OHV) have just taken delivery of a fully integrated RT-LAB Engineering Simulator that will be used to model the primary drive for a heavy-duty electrical vehicle for off-highway applications. Using high fidelity models developed by Opal-RT, the simulator models a single Induction Motor (IM) drive, supplied by parallel inverters, complete with signal conditioning for hardware-in-the-loop testing.
	Hydro-Québec Hydro-Québec (LTÉE) has purchased RT-LAB to simulate dynamic load to test the influence of voltage fluctuation on the performance of the electric motor drives and optimize their controllers.
	Mitsubishi Electric Corporation Mitsubishi Electric Corporation is using RT-LAB for various advanced development projects.
	University of Tennessee in Knoxville Opal-RT Technologies is providing the means to develop and simulate an electric motor, which includes the simulation and control over the flux. The key requirement in this project is the capability to do space vector or pwm pulse patterns and allow arbitrary specification of the pulse patterns switch timer. The system used is a dual node system with Giganet communication and high-speed commercial-off-the-shelf I/O boards. This system requires HIL simulation capabilities in the 50 µs range.
	Bharat Heavy Electricals Limited BHEL manufactures over 180 products under 30 major product groups and caters to core sectors of the Indian Economy viz., Power Generation & Transmission, Industry, Transportation, Telecommunication, Renewable Energy, etc. The wide network of BHEL's 14 manufacturing divisions, four Power Sector regional centres, over 100 project sites, eight service centres and 18 regional offices, enables the Company to promptly serve its customers and provide them with suitable products, systems and services -- efficiently and at competitive prices. The high level of quality & reliability of its products is due to the emphasis on design, engineering and manufacturing to international standards by acquiring and adapting some of the best technologies from leading companies in the world, together with technologies developed in its own R&D centres. BHEL Electronics Division has placed order to procure eMEGAsim, our Real Time Digital Power Electronics Simulator for the simulation of Power Electronic Systems comprising of Traction Drives and HVDC Systems. Their contract with Opal-RT covers supply of Hardware & Software, installation, commissioning at EDN-Bangalore, training of BHEL Engineers, service during warranty of real-time design and simulation of circuits and systems in Power Electronics and Power Systems and also enable Hardware-in-loop testing.
