Method And Apparatus For Automating Electrical Engineering Calculations
US Patent:
2011030, Dec 15, 2011
Filed:
Dec 21, 2009
Appl. No.:
12/655040
Inventors:
James M. Khalil - Delray Beach FL, US
International Classification:
G06F 17/50
US Classification:
703 1
Abstract:
A computer-based method and apparatus are provided for designing a building's electrical power distribution system. An eNode module accepts user input and collects global project information for an entire electrical power distribution system project. The eNode module extracts and imports the electrical power distribution system project data from separate building equipment and panel board modules and calculates various total electrical loads for the overall system. The eNode module automatically determines the need for accommodating transformers between electrical nodes and flags errors in the specification of panel boards and electrical equipment based on the calculated total loads. The eNode module specifies transformer requirements and determines these errors with the aid of electrical standards data, such as the National Electrical Code. Finally, the computer-based invention automatically generates an electrical parts inventory for constructing the electrical circuits in the building, including transformers, which may be electronically transmitted to a parts supplier for fulfillment.

Abstract:
A computer-based method and apparatus are provided for designing a building's electrical power distribution system. An electrical circuit design module accepts electrical requirements for individual circuits and automatically determines values for a set of variables that completely specify the design of the circuits and the physical attributes of the components needed to construct those circuits. The circuit design module determines the set of circuit variables with the aid of electrical standards data, such as the National Electrical Code. Further, multiple circuit design modules may be linked so as to share the data between them thereby providing an hierarchical design process where the design data for higher level electrical circuits is automatically determined from the plurality of individually specified, lower-level circuit data. Finally, the computer-based invention automatically generates an electrical parts inventory for constructing the electrical circuits in the building which may be electronically transmitted to a parts supplier for fulfillment.
