RTDS: Real Time Digital Simulator
The RTDS consists of hardware and software tools that combine to form a real-time simulation environment of power systems.
Hardware:
The RTDS hardware performs the computations, communication and HIL interface. The RTDS system at IIT indore is composed of two chassis and each chassis is equipped with processor cards. The amplifier is required to provide higher voltages and currents than provided by the D/A converter in the RTDS to perform HIL.
Software:
RSCAD: RSCAD is power system simulation software, designed specifically for interfacing to the RTDS Simulator hardware. It provides all the necessary tools to develop a complete power system model, including a wide range of the power system components, control system tools and power system protection modules.
