The validation of a power control system in industrial plants requires a modelling for simulation of the electric power system that is fairly accurate and computationally-efficient. The second aspect is particularly relevant if a real-time simulation is required. In this paper the classical models of the network and the induction motors are revised so as to allow an adequate balance between computational-efficiency and accuracy of the results. From this point of view, the research is not intended to find new models, but to adapt the existing ones so as to guarantee a suitable compromise between accuracy and computational efficiency. Numerical simulations are presented to show the limited computational burden in simulating a large industrial plant, as well as the good accuracy of the results in comparison with the characteristics of actual machines.

Abstract
The validation of a power control system in industrial plants requires a modelling for simulation of the electric power system that is fairly accurate and computationally-efficient. The second aspect is particularly relevant if a real-time simulation is required. In this paper the classical models of the network and the induction motors are revised so as to allow an adequate balance between computational-efficiency and accuracy of the results. From this point of view, the research is not intended to find new models, but to adapt the existing ones so as to guarantee a suitable compromise between accuracy and computational efficiency. Numerical simulations are presented to show the limited computational burden in simulating a large industrial plant, as well as the good accuracy of the results in comparison with the characteristics of actual machines.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
