Generator Max Units Pumping
| Units: | - |
| Mode: | Input Only |
| Multi-band: | False |
| Default Value: | 1E+30 |
| Validation Rule: | ≥0 |
| Key Property: | No |
| Description: | Maximum number of units allowed to be running in pump mode. |
| Detail: |
Generator Max Units Pumping applies to pumped storage generators and sets an upper limit on the number of units that are allowed to run in pump mode at any one time. This number should be not more than the number of Pump Units.
Example:
| Property | Value | Units | Band | Date From | Date To | Timeslice |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Units | 4 | - | 1 | |||
| Max Capacity | 25 | MW | 1 | |||
| Pump Efficiency | 70 | % | 1 | |||
| Pump Load | 25 | MW | 1 | |||
| Pump Units | 2 | - | 1 | |||
| Max Units Pumping | 0 | - | 1 | H6-24 |
In the above example there are four generating units, two of which can run in pump mode, but pumping is restricted to hours 1 through 5 of each day (midnight to 6:00 AM).
