Software de simulación para el modelado de energía de sistemas autónomos marinos

Abstract

This paper describes an energy system simulator to evaluate capacity of buoy autonomous power system under different climatic conditions and power subsystems configurations of power subsystems. Generators, accumulators and charges are taken into acount to evaluate the charge of battery or SOC ( State Of Charge). This simulator tries to give us an idea of the energy balance and therefore, the circuit viability and battery availability. The use of a graphic user interface (GUI) and different wizards have simplified the user interaction. It has been simulated the performance of photovoltaic and wind energy systems defined through mathematical models of the system components. The simulator onion-like structure where the GUI surrounds the main simulator core and its algorithms, has created a good platform for circuit test. Additionally, this structure provides facilities to create, access and load data files to characterize climate scenarios, circuits and power consumption scenarios.
