Rapid load flow calculation in Gaia 8.8.1
Starting with Gaia LV Network Design 8.8.1, you will now be able to select rapid load flow calculation for a network. This option is up to six times faster and is particularly suited for rough calculations in cases where precise calculation is not immediately necessary. For example, it allows you to calculate the load flow of merging various large networks. Or to calculate the consequences of a scenario for some point in the distant future.
This new function produces results that deviate at most 10 percentage points from the normal calculation. In many cases this is accurate enough for a first, rough calculation. Users now have a pragmatic functionality in Gaia 8.8.1 for rapid load flow calculation. The option has to be specifically selected; by default, Gaia will perform the normal, accurate load flow calculation.
In addition to rapid load flow calculation, Gaia 8.8.1 also offers faster calculation of shock protection thanks to parallel processing. Read up on all improvements in Gaia 8.8.1 in the release notes.
