Ice worlds are at the forefront of astrobiological interest because evidence subsurface oceans. Enceladus in particular is unique among icy moons there known vent systems that likely connected to a ocean, through which ocean water ejected space. An existing study has shown sending small robots into vents and directly sampling possible. To enable such mission, NASA’s Jet Propulsion Laboratory developing snake-like robot called Exobiology Extant Life Surveyor (EELS) can navigate Enceladus’...
The implementation of highly realistic real-time, massive, online, multi-time frame simulations is proposed as a means for building common vision smart grid functions among politicians, regulators, managers, operators, engineers, and technicians. These massive will include hundreds participants that play roles reliability coordinators, transmission distribution power plant substation operators. visible drills can demonstrate how the new systems, people, processes all work together...
Investigations of large-scale outages in the North American interconnected electric system often attribute causes to three t's: trees, training, and tools. To document understand mental processes used by expert operators when making critical decisions, a naturalistic decision (ndm) model was developed. Transcripts conversations were analyzed reveal assess ndm-based performance criteria. An item analysis indicated that operators' situation awareness levels, models, simulations can be mapped...
There is a growing need for power system operators to use operator training simulators (OTS). NERC requires that each practice 32 hours of emergency operations using realistic simulations year. The draft PER 005 standard supporting systematic approach (SAT) where directed at identifying and closing the gap between required knowledge skills measured individual operators. Simulators are also valuable this level performance measurement. This paper addresses how Virtual Instructor can be used...
This paper reviews the practices that are currently used for development, maintenance and exchange of power system operating models including data sets display sets. The then describes how various Smart Grid functions will impact generation, transmission distribution systems need to be modeled in future. A primary conclusion is complete synchronous interconnections down feeder breaker level order accommodate dynamic variable response plug-in hybrid electric vehicles, distributed storage,...
The paper describes a simulation environment for research, development, integration, testing and deployment of plug-compatible power applications. By using this environment, the elapsed time from initial research to field new applications can be dramatically reduced. integrates EPRI Operator Training Simulator with Utility Software Development Framework. Framework uses Common Information Model Application Program Interface supporting integration
This paper addresses the computer industry's general inability to develop complex software applications in a manner that promotes easy integration, reusability and low maintenance. Most are built for very specific environment include far too many dependencies, making them difficult maintain expensive integrate. A development methodology known as Abstract Object Modeling is discussed overcomes this limitation simple power application linear powerflow used an example. The first terms of...
As the electricity industry becomes increasingly competitive, knowledge concerning capacity, constraints and reliability of electric system will become a commodity great value. Electricity markets can be fast changing; understanding implications these changes before others give an important competitive advantage. Power systems, however, are characterized by extremely large sets data that cover spatial, temporal contingent dimensions. Therefore focus this mini-track is on management...
