Electromechanical Systems Simulation Software (LVSIM-EMS)8970
Description
The Electromechanical Systems Simulation Software (LVSIM®-EMS) is a simulation software that covers the same courseware as the following systems:
• Computer-Assisted 0.2 kW Electromechanical Training System, Model 8006-1
• DC and AC Power Circuits Training System, Model 8010-1
• Electromechanical Training System, Model 8010-9
• AC Power Transmission Training System, Model 8010-B
All workbooks parts of the systems above are available in the navigation menu of LVSIM-EMS for online consultation. To obtain the printing rights, Campus Licenses for each are available and must be ordered separately.
With LVSIM-EMS, all the standard EMS laboratory equipment is replaced by images of the actual EMS modules that students can manipulate on the computer screen. Students can identify and set up equipment for a given exercise, make the necessary connections between the virtual EMS modules, and verify the connections made without the need for actual EMS equipment.
Sophisticated mathematical models fully simulate the electrical and mechanical characteristics of all the actual EMS modules: power supplies, motors, generators, transformers, electrical and mechanical loads, etc. All modules simulated in the LVSIM-EMS software feature the same front panel information as the actual EMS modules. Short-circuit connections in the virtual equipment setup cause the virtual circuit-breaker protection to trip. This trip condition is clearly indicated on the virtual EMS modules.
Used either as a complement to the actual EMS laboratory equipment, or as a stand-alone product, LVSIM-EMS is a cost-effective tool that enables students to perform the same exercises as in the courseware of the above-mentioned training systems. When used as a stand-alone package, the LVSIM-EMS software allows students to perform hands-on activities related to electrical power and machines, including active, reactive, and apparent power, phasors, ac/dc motors and generators, three-phase circuits, and transformers.
The simulation software can either be installed locally on a Windows® personal computer (local version), on a Windows server (network version), or accessed directly online through the labvolt.com website at lvsim.labvolt.com (online version). Both network and local versions are delivered with perpetual license for the current version. The online version is delivered as a annual license with possibility to expand for more years.
Features & Benefits
- Replicates the Electromechanical Training System, enabling students to perform actual experiments using virtual equipment
- Install, move, and remove EMS modules in and from the workstation
- Modify module connections at any time and change the color of wires
- Install a timing belt between two EMS machines
- Verify module connections using a tool that highlights all wires connected to a same circuit point
- Perform measurements of voltage, current, power, speed, torque, impedance, resistance, reactance, and frequency and display the values on digital or analog meters
- Record measurements in a data table and plot graphs using the recorded data
- Display waveforms on a multi-channel oscilloscope and ac voltages and currents as phasors
- Students prepare for laboratories in advance using virtual equipment, thereby decreasing the time they require to perform the exercises using actual equipment
- Decreases the quantity of actual equipment required per student
- Allows students to practice with EMS equipment operation and connection at home on a personal computer
