                                                   GeneratingUnit

A single or set of synchronous machines for converting mechanical power into alternating-current power. For example, individual machines within a set may be defined for scheduling purposes while a single control signal is derived for the set. In this case there would be a GeneratingUnit for each member of the set and an additional GeneratingUnit corresponding to the set.

init(self, ratedNetMaxP=0.0, genControlSource=`'onAGC'`, initialP=0.0, SynchronousMachines=None, *args, **kw_args)
(Constructor)

Initialises a new 'GeneratingUnit' instance.

Parameters:

ratedNetMaxP - The net rated maximum capacity determined by subtracting the auxiliary power used to operate the internal plant machinery from the rated gross maximum capacity
genControlSource - The source of controls for a generating unit. Values are: "onAGC", "unavailable", "plantControl", "offAGC"
initialP - Default Initial active power which is used to store a powerflow result for the initial active power for this unit in this network configuration
SynchronousMachines - A synchronous machine may operate as a generator and as such becomes a member of a generating unit

Overrides: object.__init__
