Image used courtesy of National Instrumentsīack in the early 1980s, National Instruments was seeking new ways to improve and automate laboratory testing and measurement processes. The name LabVIEW is an acronym describing what the product was originally designed for (and continues to do nowadays): Laboratory Virtual Instrument Engineering Workbench.įigure 1.
#LABVIEW ELECTRICAL POWER SUITE PROFESSIONAL EDITION HOW TO#
Power Quality Measurement Example-Use the Multiple Line Power Quality Applications (cRIO) (Delta-Sigma).lvproj example to learn how to measure the power quality in single-bus multiple-line or multiple-bus systems using applications on the CompactRIO targets.LabVIEW is a prominent software platform created by automation and instrumentation company National Instruments. Motor Measurement Example-Use the Motor Monitoring.lvproj example to learn how to monitor AC induction motors. Power Quality VIs that Support Measuring the Single-Bus Multiple-Line and Multiple-Bus Systems-Use the VIs located on the Power Quality palette to measure the power quality of single-bus multiple-line or multiple-bus systems. Motor VIs-Use the VIs located on the Motor palette to conduct condition monitoring on AC induction motors, such as estimating motor speed, torque, load, and efficiency, calculating the motor spectra and rotor bar sideband harmonics, detecting broken rotor bars, and measuring the NEMA unbalance status and the derating rate.
