User-friendly K-INF design interface in MATLAB®/ Simulink® is fully operational

 

Application software used for designing
and off-line closed-loop testing the H-infinity controller which is the core of K-INF power management system. 

​

This interface contains a comprehensive mix of design and test functions and is intended to be used within an iterative design approach.

​

The user inputs the plant parameters and closed-loop desired behavior. Then the plant model, templates of sensitivity functions (TSF) and the controller itself are automatically computed.

​

The closed-loop behavior is verified  within a four-step procedure via frequency- and
time-domain simulations. If one of this steps yields non-satisfactory results, the design process is resumed from the beginning by altering the TSFs' initial parameters (desired performance).

Tests of LiFePo batteries with K-INF PMS will be finished

​

Tests of LiFePo batteries working in the micro-grid frequency regulation use-case simulated environment, equipped of K-INF PMS, are in progress on the real-time demonstrator, in order to further build a sound comparison basis with state-of-the-art PMS performance.

Batteries have been solicited within accelerated operation cycles relevant to the frequency regulation use case in order to quantify fatigue effects on their state of health (SoH).
