Generator Constraints Heat Production Coefficient

Units:GJ (Metric), MMBtu (U.S. Imperial)
Mode:Input Only
Multi-band:False
Default Value:0
Validation Rule:Any Value
Key Property:No
Description:Coefficient of heat production

Generator Constraints Heat Production Coefficient connects to the heat production of the generator.

For CHP units this is the left-hand side coefficient of Heat Production in the constraint, and for other units, such as normal thermal generators, it is the coefficient of Waste Heat.

With the coefficient represented by a(i,j) the following term is added to the formulation:

... + a(i,j) × Generator Heat Production ... {≤, ≥, =} bj
