Attributes

max_forward_flow

Data type: timeseries. Unit: MW.

Maximum transfer capacity in forward direction.

max_backward_flow

Data type: timeseries. Unit: MW.

Maximum transfer capacity in backward direction.

n_loss_segments

Data type: int. Unit: NO_UNIT.

Number of segments for linearization of quadratic loss.

loss_constant

Data type: double. Unit: NO_UNIT.

Constant power loss in DC line terminals, independent of power flow.

loss_factor_linear

Data type: double. Unit: NO_UNIT.

Loss factor multiplied with absolute value of the flow in the line.

loss_factor_quadratic

Data type: double. Unit: NO_UNIT.

Loss factor multiplied with the square of the flow in the line. The calculation is linearized with the number of steps defined by n_loss_segments.

flow

Data type: timeseries. Unit: MW.

Flow through the line.

forward_loss

Data type: timeseries. Unit: MW.

Transmission loss for flow in forward direction of the line.

backward_loss

Data type: timeseries. Unit: MW.

Transmission loss for flow in backward direction of the line.
