التقدير الحراري في الوقت الحقيقي (RTTR)

يعمل RTTR (التقدير الحراري في الوقت الحقيقي) أو DCR (تقدير الكابلات الديناميكية) على حساب درجة حرارة الموصلات باستمرار من خلال أخذ الحمل الحالي والحمل التاريخي والظروف الحرارية وغير ذلك من العوامل في الاعتبار. وفي نفس الوقت، فإنه يتنبأ بالحد الأقصى للحمل المسموح به للحالات الثابتة وحالات الطوارئ. بناءً على معايير الصناعة IEC 60287 وIEC 60853 ونماذج العناصر المحدودة، يمكنك تشغيل الشبكة بأعلى مستويات التيار الآمن الممكنة مع إمكانيات توقع ممتازة. ويعتمد حساب RTTR على النماذج الحرارية الدقيقة التي تعكس حالة التربة / الجو المحيط على طول كابل الطاقة عالي الجهد.

لقد تعاونا معًا لسنوات مع الشركة الرائدة في السوق تقييم البرامج للوصول إلى بيانات دقيقة وموثوقة. يتم دمج نتائج التقييم بالكامل في منصة برنامج SmartVision من AP Sensing ويتم عرضه بسهولة في مركز إرسال أحمال المشغلين عبر بروتوكولات قياسية مثل Modbus TCP أو IEC 61850 أو IEC 60870-104 أو DNP3 أو OPC.
