Benchmarks | GHOST Microgrid with Protection

Model name

GHOST microgrid with protection

Highlights

  • Includes all protection models: 25, 27, 50P, 51P, 59, 81O, 81R and 81U
  • Multi-relay component optimizing performance and facilitating protection configuration

Known distributed energy resources benchmark originally published by the MIT and NREL. As the original benchmark, this model is meant to be connected to an external microgrid controller.

Hardware

OP5707XG

  • Motherboard: X11DPL-i
  • Processor: Intel(R) Xeon(R) Gold 5222 CPU @ 3.80GHz; 8 cores
  • RAM: 32 GB

Software

  • Platform: HYPERSIM
  • Compiler: GCC 8.3.0

HXG Max (3 cores)

Results

  • Number of core(s): 3
  • Minimum time-step: 44 us *

* Performance under transient conditions varying considerably depending on the study type, this benchmark measures the minimum achievable time-step without overruns in steady-state conditions. A rule of thumb is to consider 10 to 20 % buffer time for calculations under transient conditions.
