Step 1: Open EMF_OS Begin by launching the EMF_OS application on your computer.
Step 2: Navigate to Validator Within the EMF_OS interface, go to:
emf/loadflow
and select Validator from the options available.
Step 3: Configure Data Retrieval Settings In the Validator settings, you need to specify where to load the data from:
Find the parameter load_data_from_local_storage. Set it to **True. ** This setting allows the application to retrieve data stored locally on your computer.
Step 4: Specify Data Source and Destination The data for this validation session will be retrieved from an external source. Step 5: Specifying the Study Folder The folder_to_study parameter is crucial as it directs the Validator to the specific folder where the data models are stored. If you want to test a different set of models, you need to change this parameter. From following URL:
https://www.entsoe.eu/Documents/CIM_documents/Grid_Model_CIM/QoCDC_v3.2.1_test_models.zip
For example, to test the models in the 'TC4_T1_Conform/Initial' directory, set:
folder_to_study = 'TC4_T1_Conform/Initial'
You can change source link in "validator.properties" to
https://www.entsoe.eu/Documents/CIM_documents/Grid_Model_CIM/TestConfigurations_packageCASv2.0.zip
indicate IGM and BD:
folder_to_study = ['CGMES_v2.4.15_MicroGridTestConfiguration_T1_BE_Complete_v2', 'CGMES_v2.4.15_MicroGridTestConfiguration_T1_NL_Complete_v2', 'Type1_T1/CGMES_v2.4.15_MicroGridTestConfiguration_BD_v2']
Data should be saved locally on your computer:
C:..\emf\loadflow_tool\example_models
Step 5: Run the Validator Execute the validation process by running the Validator. Note: The first run might take some time as it involves data downloading and processing.
Tips: Ensure you have stable internet connectivity for downloading the data. Double-check the path where data is saved to avoid errors in file retrieval. Change the folder_to_study as required for different sets of data to efficiently manage multiple validations. This tutorial guides you through using the Validator tool within EMF_OS to validate electrical grid models, ideal for ensuring that the models conform to the required standards and perform as expected.
