Interface Flow

Units:	MW
Mode:	Output Only
Multi-band:	False
Default Value:
Validation Rule:
Key Property:	No
Description:	Flow on the interface
Detail:

Interface Flow, in reporting by interval, is the net flow on the interface, or:

∑ ( Flow Coefficient × Line Flow + Flow Forward Coefficient x MAX ( 0, Line Flow ) + Flow Back Coefficient x Line Flow Back )

This sum shows both net and directed flow terms. In practice the interface would use just one set of flow coefficients.

In reporting summary values (day, week, etc) Flow is defined as the sum of flows in the reference direction, or:

∑ MAX ( 0, Flow )

The total flow in the counter-reference direction is reported as Flow Back.
