Basics of HIL Simulation Approach
Real Time Simulation
•
•
A device under test (DUT) is
interfaced to a simulated
environment through HIL interfaces
to a real-time simulation model
Controller HIL (CHIL)
G
Power HIL (PHIL)
– Power amplifiers and/or actuators are
used for interfacing
– Full power, high fidelity stimulation
•
•
•

within controlled lab environment
DUT to be tested with systems not
yet constructed

Synergy Between Verification and
Validation and HIL Simulation
•
•
•
•
HIL can facilitate economically carrying
out validation experiments on the DUT
HIL simulation test plans can be based
around scenarios for V&V (including
surrounding system models, scenarios,
response quantities, etc.)
Results can be used for
improvement/calibration of DUT models
and/or for assessment of prediction error
with models
HIL simulation experiments can be
employed at various stages of the
development process (using CHIL for
testing controllers, etc.)

Concluding Remarks
• PHIL testing is advancing rapidly
– A tool to address several challenges associated with
transitioning technology (de-risking)
– Emulate a wide range of surroundings and scenarios,
simulate yet unrealized systems
• Impact of PHIL interface more pronounced at MW
scale experiments
– Aim for close coupling between reference and amplifier but
acknowledge the limitations in the simulated PHIL setup
– Develop affordable faster switching amplifiers
– Improve real time simulation of models
– Proper model construction and validation is key to success
Team at work in FSUCAPS control room
• Simulation based preparation of MW scale
experiments expected to save time and money
– Improve development cycle
– Discover hidden issues early
• Need to develop common guidelines and
“standards” to accelerate adoption of HIL paradigm
