Desenvolvimento de sistema SCADA baseado no padrão de IHM de alta performance aplicado à subestação de geração eólica

Abstract

The automation of substations has provided great benefits to the eletric sector, such as: remote operations, monitoring and storage of substation events and maintenance facilitation of patio equipments. In modern automation systems, the solution SCADA (Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition) is present in substations and operations centers collecting data from the electrical system in real time so that the operator can, by HMI, command, control and supervise the electric system. The screen pattern of SCADA traditionally counted with a model of extravagant colors, utilized a lot of three-dimensional perspective figures and had a series of navigation screens, which makes the operation through these interfaces quite difficult. In the last years, the norm ISA-101.1 established the formalization of HMIs of high visual performance. The new methodology of HMIs proves to be more efficient in operation, since its computational performance and resources contribute to better decision-making by operators. Within this context, the objective of this academic work is to present all the development process of SCADA for the Quixaba wind generation substation based on the concept of a high-performance HMI. In the present work, the Elipse Power software and the drivers of the DNP 3.0, IEC 61.850 and Modbus communication protocols were used. The first two to collect data of the substation and the third one to collect data from wind turbines that power the plan. From the project, it was confirmed that the application of Elipse Power, based on the concepts of high- performance HMIs, presented better computational performance, since its simple and efficient integration to communication protocols and the database service, and more intuitive resources, in order to facilitate the activity of the system operators.
