What's New in Versin 2.0.2
1 – Fixed several small bugs found in the 2.0.1 release
What's New in VERSION 2.0.1
1 – New Device Protection. This option, available through the Symbol Editor,is a major change in EMTPWorks that required a very large number of code changesin all device maintenance options and scripting techniques. It allows encryptionto protect device content from access and/or modification. This is a very useful optionfor protecting subcircuit contents and for hiding proprietary contents from users. Passwords can be easily entered and maintained by the original users who develop the encrypted devices. Password protection is available at any hierarchy level.
2 – New design file format.
Due to the introduction of the Device Protection option explained above, it is no longer possible to open Version 2 files in previous versions of EMTP-RV. This is also true for new libraries.
3 – New drawing and editing tools.
Various shapes can now be drawn and edited directly on the drawing of the design. These tools can be used for documenting the design and representing specific design regions. The shapes created can be modified, colored, and layered over existing schematic symbols.
4 – New toolbar customization option.
5 – New options in “Make Unique Type” command.
It is now possible to apply the command to all subcircuit contents. This is an easy method for completely detaching a subcircuit and all its contents from all other subcircuits of the same type. The new command and all its options are also available through scripts.
6 – All devices with scripted masks now programmable.
The programming uses device object data and methods. This means, for example, that the data of a built-in 3-phase transformer can be modified from any upper-level mask.
7 – Many new script methods for services and enhanced programming techniques.
8 – New State-Space device for power systems.
This device allows entering state-space equation matrices and solving state-space equations simultaneously with electrical network equations.
9 – New State-Space device for control systems.
10 – New transformer ratio control option.
11 – New load-flow or steady-state visualization option.
Load-flow phasors can be placed on the schematic (“View Steady-State” in options.clf).
12 – New options for the Frequency Scan feature.
It is now possible to perform a frequency scan and match source frequency.
13 – Improved error messaging and testing of user errors.
A large number of changes have been made to enhance these functions.
14 – ’Using EMTP – Tutorials and Reference’.
This document is now also available in PDF format, accessible from the online documentation and can be printed for offline use.
15 – Addition of several advanced models in the Examples library:
• Long air gap leader model for insulation coordination studies
• On-load tap changer model for voltage stability studies
• Secondary arc model for single-pole switching
• Multi-chamber HV circuit-breaker arc model (Cassie-Mayr-Modified)
