OPAL-RT - Model OP4512 -Compact Entry-Level Simulator

SHARE

The OP4512 is a compact, entry-level simulator that combines all of OPAL-RT’s strengths in high-performance Rapid Control Prototyping and Hardware-in-the-loop simulation. The OP4512 is the latest evolution of our popular OP4510. This robust real-time power grid simulator offers the best performance at an affordable price.

Equipped with a fast and reliable Intel® Xeon® four-core processors and a powerful Xilinx® Kintex®-7 410T FPGA, the OP4512 delivers raw simulation power for both CPU-based real-time simulation and sub-microsecond time step power electronic simulation.

The combined commercial off-the-shelf FPGA and CPU architecture of the OP4512 enables users to reach real-time simulation time steps below 10 μs and 200ns, respectively. Co-simulation between FPGA and CPU is also possible, thanks to a fast PCI Express link exchanging data and signals between devices. This feature makes it possible to couple high-speed FPGA-based models, such as power converters and electric drives, to slower electrical and mechanical systems on the CPU, providing even more detailed simulations.

The 10-nanosecond timing resolution of the FPGA enables users to perform advanced RCP of high-speed PWM-based controllers that can be tested on actual hardware. All this exceptional computing power is available in a single rack-mounted chassis.
