modelvaryingReturnTemperature

Information

This scenario studies the behavior of the cascading substation in the presence of fluctuating return temperatures in the main network. This can affect the ability to supply the connected sub-network in case the return temperature goes below the necessary supply temperature of the sub-network. In such a case, the supply line connection will be activated as a backup to guarantee supply.

In the concrete example the return temperature is varied using a trapezoid signal. Thus, the return temperature at the cascading connection varies +- 15°C around the nominal/design return temperature of 70°C. The mass flow at the connection point and the heat load of the sub-network are not varied.

Available commands: Simulate and plot: simulates the example and plots the results so that the example can be better understood.
