Title
Modeling and Simulation of Cyber-Physical Electrical Energy Systems With SystemC-AMS
Abstract
Modern cyber-physical electrical energy systems (CPEES) are characterized by wider adoption of sustainable energy sources and by an increased attention to optimization, with the goal of reducing pollution and wastes. This imposes a need for instruments supporting the design flow, to simulate and validate the behavior of system components and to apply additional optimization and exploration steps. Additionally, each system might be tested with a number of management policies, to evaluate their economic impact. It is thus evident that simulation is a key ingredient in the design flow of CPEES. This paper proposes a framework for CPEES modeling and simulation, that relies on the open-source standard SystemC-AMS. The paper formalizes the information and energy flow in a generic CPEES, by focusing on both AC and DC components, and by including support for mechanical and physical models that represent multiple energy sources and loads. Experimental results, applied to a complex CPEES case study, will prove the effectiveness of the proposed solution, in terms of accuracy, speed up w.r.t. the current state-of-the-art Matlab/Simulink, and support for the design flow.
