Abstract

A screen generation method of an energy management system according to the present disclosure may include performing system visualization modeling indicating a connection relationship between monitoring facilities in a power system to generate a first screen; generating a file containing information on a connection relationship between facilities used during the first screen generation; and generating a second screen for monitoring facilities during the real-time operation using the generated file.

First claim

What is claimed is:

1. A system visualization modeling method for an energy management system, the method comprising:
displaying on a display of the energy management system a first screen comprising a schematic diagram including a plurality of objects corresponding to facilities to be monitored in an electric power system;
arranging one or more connections between the plurality of objects corresponding to connections between the facilities to be monitored;
generating a file comprising information on the arranged connections between the facilities and information of the first screen;
storing the generated file in a memory of the energy management system; and
displaying on the display a second screen for monitoring the facilities during a real-time operation of the energy management system according to the generated file stored in the memory, wherein the second screen comprises the information of the first screen and the schematic diagram indicating the connection between facilities;
wherein the generated file further comprises:
screen information comprising screen size and background color information of the first screen;
object information related to a kind, location, size, and facility type of one or more facilities contained in the generated first screen; and
connection information related to connection location information between each object of the object information.

2. The method of claim 1 , wherein the first screen comprises:
an interface for changing the schematic diagram of the electric power system in an off-line database.

3. The method of claim 1 , wherein the first screen comprises:
an interface for configuring the one or more connections between facilities in a graphic format;
configuring the one or more connections between the facilities on the provided interface; and
storing data corresponding to the one or more connections.

4. The method of claim 3 , further comprising:
performing an error check for the one or more connections between the facilities prior to storing the data; wherein the error check comprises:
checking if there are any unregistered facilities on the first screen; and
checking if there are any double-connected facilities on the first screen.

5. The method of claim 1 , wherein the generated the corresponds to an XML format file.

6. The method of claim 1 , wherein the second screen comprises:
reconfiguring information of the generated file using a prestored conversion table.

7. The method of claim 6 , wherein the reconfiguring information comprises:
information indicating an object and symbol used on the second screen corresponding to the information of the generated the using the conversion table.

8. The method of claim 1 , wherein the second screen comprises:
an interface for real-time operation monitoring and controlling an integrated database of the energy management system.
