Use LK to import user defined TOD array

Dear Paul

Is it possible that I can import user defined TOD array into power tower model with LK? The user defined TOD array is consisted of 8760 numbers.

Thank you!

Dear Han,

Yes, the variable for the time series TOD multipliers array is .

Be sure to enable that option on the Time of Delivery Factors page, by choosing Time of Delivery Factors Timestep at the top of the page. You can also do that programmatically in LK with .

Best regards,
Paul.

Hi Paul

Thank you Paul. Is it possile that I can also use time series system control dispatch schedule?

I have checked the single owner module, the related parameters are dispatch _sche_weekly and dispatch_sched_weekend. There is also a variable named is_dispatch_series and dispatch_series. Can I set is_dispatch_series to be 1 and then import dispatch_series?
Best reagards!

Dear Paul

Where can I find the detailed description of the module tcsgeneric_solar and tcsmolten_salt? And also some of output parameters can not be found in the module browser for singleowner module. How can I get this informations?

Thank you very much!

Han

Dear Han,

We do not have detailed documentation for those compute modules. SAM will soon be an open-source project on GitHub.com, so you could research the source code itself to learn more about how the models work.

Which singleowner outputs are you having trouble finding in SDKtool?

Best regards,
Paul.
