Optimisation of system in motor driven systems
The project follows up system optimisation project 338-009 by developing practical and web-based tools in the form of energy calculator, electric motor calculators and overall finances calculator for both equipment makers, companies and energy consultants for optimising the design and operation of electricity-consuming systems.
The result is a user-friendly calculation tool, that can be used by mechanics, energy consultants and the companies technical specialists and purchasing agents to identify the most energy efficient machine system. The tool is build on the National Instruments LabVIEW and based on several measurements of single componentes in such systems.
To be able to calculate the consequences by optimising exisiting machine systems several values for the four components must be included in the tool (loading or application, transmission, motor and control unit). Based on this the effiency for the four components and the total effiency of the system is calculated. By including similar values for alternative solutions the tool can calculate the electricity saving for the most energy efficient alternative.
The tool has been tested at Lokalenergi Handel and for a ventilation system at Brabrand Mejeri.
