Fill the backbone input excel

p_unit

p_unit gives unit specific information which do not depend on the corresponding node. Fill in all units and make them available. In following table, you find information on the effectivity and minimum load parameter.

parameter

Meaning

op00

Minimum load (as share of unitSize from p_gnu_io)

op01

Point where maximal efficiency is reached (as share of unitSize from p_gnu_io)

eff00

Effectivity at point op00

eff01

Effectivity at point op01

In this case, we will assume the same efficiency for the complete operating range. Fill in all parameters with the information from the following table:
