Hybrid2 can write a detailed output file that will provide the user with a
time step by time step description of many different system parameters. Hybrid2
allows for two types of detailed output, standard and detailed. Below is a short
description of each column of output. Hybrid2 will not report details for systems
that are not present in the system being simulated. For example, if your system
does not contain the DC wind turbines the DC wind turbine power will not be
given.
Standard output:
- Primary_AC
- The average AC primary load for that time step. Any load specified
as an AC primary load. This column does not represent power supplied
to the load, only what was called for.
- Defer_AC_1
- Power delivered to the first AC deferrable load during that time
step.
- Defer_AC_2
- Power delivered to the second AC deferrable load during that time
step.
- Optional_AC
- Power delivered to the AC optional load during that time step.
- Primary_DC
- The average DC primary load for that time step. Any load specified
as primary load. This column does not represent power supplied
to the load, only what was called for.
- Defer_DC_1
- Power delivered to the first DC deferrable load during that time
step.
- Defer_DC_2
- Power delivered to the second DC deferrable load during that time
step.
- Optional_DC
- Power delivered to the DC optional load during that time step.
- Unmet_Load
- Any primary and deferrable load, both AC and DC, that was not
met by the power system for that time step.
- Spilled
- The power lost by any mismatch between DC generators and the battery
bank. For example if a DC PV array is undersized and the voltage
is below that of the battery bank, the power cannot be used.
- WTG_AC
- The power generated by all of the AC wind turbines in the power
system.
- PV_AC
- The total power generated by the PV array if it is located on
the AC bus.
- Diesel_AC
- The power generated by all of the AC combustion generators.
- Dump_AC
- The power supplied to the AC dump load. This indicates an excess
of power that is being wasted.
- Dump_AC_XS
- Any power produced in addition to all of the required loads as
well as the rated power of the dump load. It also indicates that
the dump load is undersized or the system power generation is
oversized. This indicates that the power system as designed is
unstable and should be redesigned by the reduction in power sources,
increase of storage, or installation of an additional optional
or deferrable load.
- WTG_DC
- The power generated by all of the DC wind turbines in the power
system.
- PV_DC
- The total power generated by the PV array if it is located on
the DC bus. This will be different than the actual power received
on the DC bus because of voltage losses associated with the battery
bank.
- Diesel_DC
- The power generated by all of the DC combustion generators
- Diesel_Shaft
- The power generated by the engine connected to a rotary converter
in a three-bus power system.
- Dump_DC
- The power supplied to the DC dump load. This indicates an excess
of power that is being wasted.
- Dump_DC_XS
- Any power produced above all of the required load as well as the
rated power of the dump load. This indicates that the dump load
is undersized or the system generation is oversized. This indicates
that the power system as designed is unstable and should be redesigned
by the reduction in power sources, increase of storage, or installation
of an additional optional or deferrable load.
- Store_In
- Energy put into the battery bank during the time step.
- Store_Out
- Energy removed from the battery bank during the time step.
- Losses
- All system losses associated with power conversion and the use
of the battery storage.
- Voltage
- The voltage of the battery bank at the end of the time step.
- Storage
- The capacity of the battery bank at the end of the time step.
- V_Hub
- The wind speed at hub height of the first turbine.
- Sun_Slope
- The solar irradiation falling on the solar array taking into consideration
the position of the sun and the slope of the PV array.
- Fuel_Hybrid
- The total fuel consumed by all of the generators in the hybrid
system during that time step.
- Fuel_Base
- The total fuel consumption of all of the generators in the base-case
all diesel system during that time step.
- PV_Power_DC
- Actual energy received on the DC bus from the PV array. This will
be less than that produced by the PV array because of voltage
losses associated with the battery bank.
- PV_XMPT_Los
- Losses associated with the use of a Maximum Power Point Tracker.
Additional parameters in the extended detailed output.
- Balance
- The system power balance, meaning the power from all of the power sources
minus all of the power sinks. This should always add up to zero, or very close
to it.
- Load_Max_AC
- The maximum load on the AC bus during the time step because of variation
in the load.
- Load_Min_AC
- The minimum load on the AC bus during the time step because of variation
in the load.
- Net_Ld_AC
- The average net load on the AC bus. The net load is the total load minus
the power produced by renewables during the time step. Basically it represents
the amount of power that will be required from the battery bank or diesels.
This value is used during dispatching the diesels and batteries. A negative
value indicates power generation in excess of that needed to meet the power
demand.
- Net_Ld_Max_AC
- The statistical maximum net load during the time step on the AC bus. The
power system must be able to supply this load to prevent a system failure
during the time step.
- Net_Ld_Min_AC
- The statistical minimum net load during the time step on the AC bus.
- Load_Max_DC
- See Load_Max_AC but as it applies to the DC bus.
- Load_Min_DC
- See Load_Min_AC but as it applies to the DC bus.
- Net_Ld_DC
- See Net_Ld_AC but as it applies to the DC bus.
- Net_Ld_Max_DC
- See Net_Ld_Max_AC but as it applies to the DC bus.
- Net_Ld_Min_DC
- See Net_Ld_Min_AC but as it applies to the DC bus.
- Loss_Chg
- Losses associated with the charging of the battery bank. This includes converter
losses if the energy came from the AC bus.
- Loss_Dis
- Losses associated with the discharging of the battery bank. This includes
converter losses if the energy came from the AC bus.
- Time_Not_Met_AC
- The amount of time that the load on the AC bus was not met. This time period
can be less than a time step because the maximum net load may be much larger
than the average net load.
- Time_Not_Met_DC
- The amount of time that the load on the DC bus was not met. This time period
can be less than a time step because the maximum net load may be much larger
than the average net load.
- PV_Tempr
- The temperature of the PV modules of the PV array.
- Sun_Horiz
- The solar irradiation on a plane horizontal to the earth.
- Sun_Kt
- The portion of defuse radiation as collected by the PV panel.
- V_Anem
- The anemometer wind speed; it should be the exact wind speed entered in
the wind resource file.
- Ambient_Tempr
- Ambient temperature from the temperature resource file.
- Diesel_Flag_#
- Specifies if a particular diesel was operation during that time step.
