computer-based training and experimentation system for vocational and further
training and education in the areas of basic and advanced electrical
engineering and electronics. Its multimedia courses combine cognitive and
hands-on (haptic) training units into a comprehensive unified concept,
specifically enabling students to acquire skills in the handling of equipment.
Starting with basic courses and advancing to cover a huge variety of electrical
engineering and electronics topics, a wide range of multimedia courses is
available for study in school or in professional and advanced training courses.
The UniTrain-I system is completely self-contained and can be used anywhere at
any time. The multimedia learning environment the system provides high degrees
of motivation, and maximum learning effectiveness in laboratories, at work or
at home. It thus becomes a guarantor for effective and efficient study. Access
to the multimedia courses and control of virtual instruments and experiment
hardware is provided by LabSoft, the system's open experiment platform. The
courses teach the theoretical building blocks and provide experiments to be
carried out using the course-specific experiment hardware. The intelligent
measurement interface supplies the analog and digital measuring and control I/O
and represents, in combination with the system's virtual instruments, a high
quality item of laboratory equipment. In addition, students' progress can be
monitored and electronically documented on the basis of fault finding
experiments with faults simulated by the hardware as well as tests of
knowledge. The electrical and electronic circuits needed for the experiments
are connected to the system with the aid of an Experimenter module.
Electrical machines (Lucas Nuelle Training System)
Electrical machines convert electrical energy into
mechanical energy or viceversa. A fundamental distinction can be drawn between DC, AC and
three-phase machines. The machines
used for training in electrical engineering are designed so that nearly all of
the circuitry and drives found in
industry, commerce and at home can be conveyed in a didactic fashion in
hands-on training. Using the servo
drive and braking system it is possible to easily determine all of the relevant
data for electrical machines. In spite of their declining use for industrial
purposes DC machines constitute the basis for learning about electrical
machines. They demonstrate in a straight-forward manner the various possibilities
of open- and closedloop control of machines.

Power transmission (Lucas Nuelle Training System)
High-voltage networks are usually operated with voltages in
the region of 110 kV to 380 kV, whereby urban areas and large-scale industrial
facilities are supplied with 110 kV, and 380 kV is used for long-distance
transmission lines. The line simulation system is designed for operation at
model voltages between 110 V and 380 V. Various line lengths can be selected
via corresponding overlay masks. Investigations can be made without a load, in
a normal operating mode, in the presence of a short-circuit or earth fault or
with asymmetric faults, including shorts to earth, with and without
compensation. The system also permits assembly of complex networks by
connecting the line simulation models in parallel or series. The voltage can be
supplied via a fixed grid or synchronous generator.

Electric Power Distribution (Lucas Nuelle Training System)
Electrical power at large switching stations is distributed
almost exclusively using double busbar systems. These stations incorporate
switching matrices for connecting the two busbars, the incoming and outgoing
feeder cubicles as well as the measurement fields. The incoming and outgoing
feeder cubicles as well as the switching matrices are furnished with circuit
breakers and one disconnector for each busbar terminal. For safety reasons, a
particular switching logic must be strictly adhered to here. The double busbar
model incorporates all functions of practical relevance. Integrated instruments
for measuring currents and voltages permit direct analyses of switching
operations.
Double busbar systems
The compact modules named ”Incoming and outgoing feeder
cubicles“ and ”Switching matrix“ offer the following advantages:
·
Flexible arrangement of the various fields
·
Operation and monitoring from a PC
·
Networking capability thanks to an RS-485
interface

Energy Management (Lucas Nuelle Training System)
For economic and environmental reasons, a rational use of
energy is becoming increasingly important. Exercises on manual and automatic
compensation of reactive power as well as experiments on reducing peak loads
through measurements with active-current and maximum-demand meters demonstrate
how the load on a mains supply network can be reduced and evenly distributed
over a 24-hour period. An analysis of the power supply grid and connected
consumers (loads) is necessary for effective use of the involved measurement
techniques. Accordingly, each experiment permits a detailed investigation of
static, dynamic, symmetric and asymmetric loads. Protection of electrical
consumers is another important training subject.
Smart metering
All energy technology kits contain intelligent measuring
devices possessing a variety of communication interfaces (e.g. LAN, RS485, USB)
and control elements. Consequently, consumers can not only be monitored, but also
intelligently controlled. An automatic load management program can be realized
with the features listed below:
·
Monitoring of the specified power limit
·
Enabling and disabling of consumers in
accordance with a defined priority list
·
Activation of consumers during low-load
intervals
Protecting electrical consumers
Malfunctions in electrical systems resulting from short
circuits, overload etc. must be prevented or at least restricted by means of
appropriate protective measures, and the faulty devices disconnected
selectively from the network. For the protective features to be properly
implemented and correctly dimensioned, it is necessary to know their trigger
characteristics and times, as well as their operational characteristics. This
experiment series provides detailed treatment of how to protect three-phase
motors by means of a motor protection switch, temperature monitoring in the
coils, and triggering via a thermistor device. An experiment on full motor
protection with a digital device can also be conducted. The handling and
parametrization of the digital motor protection device are the focus of
training in this experiment.
