Facility Constraints Operating Hours Coefficient

Units:	h
Mode:	Input Only
Multi-band:	False
Default Value:	0
Validation Rule:	Any Value
Key Property:	No
Description:	Coefficient of number of hours of operation

Facility Constraints Hours of Operation Coefficient is the coefficient of the number of hours of operation of the facility in the given period in the constraint.

This coefficient can be used to create a constraint that limits the number of hours of operation of a multi-unit facility.

Table 1: Hours of Operating Coefficient Example

Membership	Property	Value
Constraint	Sense	<=
Constraint	RHS
Constraint	RHS Day	17.5
Facility Constraints	Hours of Operation Coefficient	1

For the example in Table 1 the facility is restricted to operating 17.5 hours per day. Note that adding this coefficient causes the mathematical programming problem to include binary decision variables.
