UiUdpcChecks

UiUdpcChecks

PySAM.UiUdpcChecks.default(config) → UiUdpcChecks

Load defaults for the configuration config. Available configurations are:

• None

Note

Some inputs do not have default values and may be assigned a value from the variable’s Required attribute. See variable attribute descriptions below.

PySAM.UiUdpcChecks.from_existing(data, optional config) → UiUdpcChecks

Share data with an existing PySAM class. If optional config is a valid configuration name, load the module’s defaults for that configuration.

PySAM.UiUdpcChecks.new() → UiUdpcChecks

PySAM.UiUdpcChecks.wrap(ssc_data_t) → UiUdpcChecks

Load data from a PySSC object.

Warning

Do not call PySSC.data_free on the ssc_data_t provided to wrap()

UiUdpcChecks is a wrapper for the SSC compute module cmod_ui_udpc_checks.cpp

Interdependent Variables

The variables listed below are interdependent with other variables. If you change the value of one of these variables, you may need to change values of other variables. The SAM user interface manages these interdependent variables, but in PySAM, it is up to you change the value of all interdependent variables so they are consistent. See Interdependent Variables for examples and details.

Functions

class PySAM.UiUdpcChecks.UiUdpcChecks

This class contains all the variable information for running a simulation. Variables are grouped together in the subclasses as properties. If property assignments are the wrong type, an error is thrown.

assign(dict) → None

Assign attributes from nested dictionary, except for Outputs

nested_dict = { 'User Defined Power Cycle': { var: val, ...}, ...}

execute(int verbosity) → None

Execute simulation with verbosity level 0 (default) or 1

export() → dict

Export attributes into nested dictionary

replace(dict) → None

Replace attributes from nested dictionary, except for Outputs. Unassigns all values in each Group then assigns from the input dict.

nested_dict = { 'User Defined Power Cycle': { var: val, ...}, ...}

unassign(name) → None

Unassign a value in any of the variable groups.

value(name, optional value) → Union[None, float, dict, sequence, str]

Get or set by name a value in any of the variable groups.

UserDefinedPowerCycle Group

class PySAM.UiUdpcChecks.UiUdpcChecks.UserDefinedPowerCycle

assign(dict) → None

Assign attributes from dictionary, overwriting but not removing values.

UserDefinedPowerCycle_vals = { var: val, ...}

export() → dict

Export attributes into dictionary.

replace(dict) → None

Replace attributes from dictionary, unassigning values not present in input dict.

UserDefinedPowerCycle_vals = { var: val, ...}

ud_ind_od

Off design user-defined power cycle performance as function of T_htf, m_dot_htf [ND], and T_amb

Required: False. Automatically set to [[0]] if not assigned explicitly or loaded from defaults.

Type:sequence[sequence]

Common Group

class PySAM.UiUdpcChecks.UiUdpcChecks.Common

assign(dict) → None

Assign attributes from dictionary, overwriting but not removing values.
