Automated Transposition of Phase Conductors and Crossbonding of Cable Sheaths for MultiPhase Circuits TransposIT is a software utility that automates the analysis of the optimum transposition or crossbonding scenario on a power system network. Currently, the automation is implemented on the data specification only. Future implementation will provide automation to the algorithm used to determine the optimum transposition based on a set of criteria defined by the user. This utility, works on a circuit data defined by the SPLITS computation module. Therefore, it is useful to the MultiLines and RightofWay software packages. Overview of TransposIT It is well known that substantial current unbalance can develop within and between the circuits of a transmission line when the phases are not regularly transposed, even when the loads are balanced. Studying the effects of the characteristics of such transpositions (their location, direction of rotation, etc…) in order to arrive at an optimal configuration is a tedious task, requiring manual modification of the network model at every transposition location. Moreover, a huge number of different transposition scenarios may have to be examined. The TransposIT utility was created to simplify this task. This utility takes a reference SPLITS file as input and produces on output a different SPLITS file, with transpositions applied at userdefined locations, on userspecified circuits. The program’s interface allows you to specify the transpositions either visually through a graphical interface, using windows screens through a tabular approach, or using a command input file. Either way, the transpositions are immediately displayed visually: this makes it easier to confirm that the transpositions really have the desired characteristics. All three modes of input are fully synchronized. Note that TransposIT can also be used to carry out crossbonding of cable sheaths as easily as for phase transpositions. In fact, any operations that require changing regularly the physical position of conductors in order to meet certain mutual coupling criteria can be done easily using this software utility. www.sestech.com World Leader in Grounding & EMI
A Powerful Batch Processor that Automates the Submission of Repetitive Computer Runs or Tasks Often it is necessary to examine a large number of scenarios. These cases, which have similar input data, require multiple runs of the engineering modules. It is therefore desirable and efficient to stack all of these runs together and let the computer do the work unattended (batch processing). The results are examined later interactively or using automated procedures. That's exactly what SESBAT does: batch processing. SESBatch is a utility that allows you to run cases consecutively by submitting a series of unattended runs, to execute perhaps overnight or over the weekend. The SESBatch utility is quite straightforward to use. A typical SESBatch session consists of the following steps: · Define the programs to be run. The simplest way to do this is usually to browse for the input files defining the runs using the builtin file browser. · Optionally define a starting time for the first program in the list; if none is specified, the first program starts as soon the Launch button is clicked. Subsequent programs start as soon as the previous one terminates. · Click on the Launch button. The runs will start at the selected time. SES Batch will prompt you when all runs have completed and produce a log file listing all the runs along with their starting and ending times. The session information gathered in the first two steps can be saved to a workspace file and restored at a later time. Dedicated tabs offer new and improved functionalities. For example, the Current Run tab displays the progress of the program that is currently running in the batch while the Finished Runs tab displays the status of each run in the batch that has been completed. A program can be added to the batch while the batch is in progress and commonlyused utilities can be accessed from the Tools menu. GRAREP Is a Graphics, Report and Text Viewer for all SES Software Packages GraRep is a software tool that can be used to display and print existing graphics, reports or text files. It allows you to zoom in on a selected portion of a picture, scale a picture up or down, view any number of pictures, customize the printing of plots, and view and print reports, messages and text. GraRep is used internally by SES software to display computation results graphically or in report form. The program can also be used in "standalone" mode. The following describes some of GraRep’s salient features. The main user interface of the program consists of three tabs. The View Plots tab is devoted to the display of graphics files. The other two tabs (View Reports and View Messages) are used to display text. The View Plots tab is separated into two major areas: the main viewing area, and the Picture Button queue (at the right edge of the window). When a picture is first loaded, it is displayed in the main viewing area and a Picture Button showing a smaller version of the picture is created and added to the queue. Pictures can be deleted, saved or copied at any time. Furthermore, pictures can be moved scaled or zoomed using simple mouse movements and clicks. The View Report and View Messages tabs look exactly the same. Their functionality is, however, somewhat different. Both can open, display, and save text files. The difference is that when a file is open in the View Report tab, its content either replaces what was displayed in the viewer or appends to it after inserting a "Report #" tag. Several toolbar buttons provide convenient access to several useful shortcuts and Options. www.sestech.com World Leader in Grounding & EMI
