Important: This option is part of the Hydro module. See Adding Modules for more information on purchasing modules.
The Hydro tab in the Simulation Results window contains the following output variables.
Variable |
Description |
Average Output |
The average power amount of the hydro turbine over the year, in kW |
Minimum Output |
The minimum power output of the hydro turbine over the year, in kW |
Maximum Output |
The maximum power output of the hydro turbine over the year, in kW |
Hydro Penetration |
The average power output of the hydro turbine divided by the average primary load |
Capacity Factor |
The average power output of the hydro turbine divided by its nominal capacity |
Hours of Operation |
The number of hours of the year during which the hydro turbine output was greater than zero |
In the bottom half of the page a DMap shows the power output of the hydro turbine in each time step of the year.
