The Hydrokinetic tab in the Simulation Results window contains the following output variables.
|
Variable |
Description |
|
Total rated capacity |
The nominal power output of the Hydrokinetic Component, in kW |
|
Mean Output |
The average power output of the Hydrokinetic Component over the year, in kW |
|
Capacity Factor |
The average power output of the Hydrokinetic Component divided by its nominal capacity |
|
Total production |
The total number of kWh produced by the Hydrokinetic Component over the year. |
|
Minimum Output |
The minimum power output of the Hydrokinetic Component over the year, in kW |
|
Maximum Output |
The maximum power output of the Hydrokinetic Component over the year, in kW |
|
Hydrokinetic Penetration |
The average power output of the Hydrokinetic Component divided by the average primary load |
|
Hours of Operation |
The number of hours of the year during which the hydro turbine output was greater than zero |
|
Levelized Cost |
The total annual production of the Hydrokinetic Component divided by its annualized cost. |
In the bottom half of the page a DMap shows the power output of the Hydrokinetic Component in each time step of the year.
