Abstract:
This paper presents a method to support the development of energy management concepts for machine and plant construction. The energy management concepts are required to put the plant components into an energy saving mode during unproductive phases. These concepts then have to be implemented in the control software. Different dependencies in the production and process flow have to be considered when developing the concepts. Due to the complexity of production plants, a supporting simulation tool is planned to be implemented. With the aid of this tool, different energy management concepts and their derived control software can already be validated virtually in the planning and development phase. This presents an energetic extension of the so-called virtual commissioning concept. Conventional virtual commissioning involves only the process operation functionality in a virtual simulation model of the plant. Now, however, energetic functionalities are assigned to the different model components. Thus, a simulation of the energy consumption in different operation modes can be created for each component. Energy management concepts can only be developed if the components’ energy consumption is known in the different scenarios.
