Description

Block Busbar It is a connector for flow distribution analysis. Use this unit with three-phase networks that are compatible with starting from a steady-state sinusoidal mode. For more information, see Calculation of flow distribution in three-phase electric networks using blocks of the Engee physical modeling library.

If the model is compatible with starting from the steady state sinusoidal mode and in the block Solver Configuration the option is enabled Start simulation from steady state, then the block will perform an accurate calculation of the initial values. Starting from the second step of the simulation, the unit will calculate the approximate values of voltage, phase, active and reactive power. These values can be viewed using the additional measuring ports of the unit. The degree of approximation depends on the balance of the system and the level of harmonics present.
