I am running RMS simulations in powerfactory with simulation scan for frequency and voltage violations and can see the results of the scan in the output window, however, I have no idea how to access these results like I would for other results variables. I need the time of violations ultimately in csv format. I see there is a function in the python reference and I have tried to access it via the following command - violations = app.ScnFrt.GetNumberOfViolations() but I am still unable to get this data. I was wondering if anyone has any experience with this or maybe an example of getting the results from simulation can following an RMS simulation? Many thanks!!
Rather than leaving this question unanswered I thought I would actually answer it myself since I worked out how to get the job done in python this morning. This function will get the results from the fault ride through scan and return the number of violations and a list of their times.
def get_simulation_scan(self): scan_folder = self.app.GetFromStudyCase('IntScn') fault = scan_folder.GetContents('*.ScnFrt')[0] num_of_violations = fault.GetNumberOfViolations() times = [] for i in range(1, num_of_violations+1): times.append(fault.GetViolationTime(i)) return num_of_violations, times
Have a look at the following manual Oliver, hope it will help. You can also have a look at the link of the book attached below, it has many examples of using python in DIGSILENT
