To specify fields representing an option from a pre-defined list, some of the fields of Component structs are specified with IS.scoped_enums (e.g. set_fuel!(gen, ThermalFuels.COAL)). Below are the enumerated types contained in PowerSystems.
Each ThermalGen generator struct contains a field for fuel::ThermalFuels where ThermalFuels are intended to reflect the options denoted by the Aggregated Fuel Codes from the EIA Annual Energy Review. Specifically, ThermalFuels is an enumerated type with the following options:
| EnumName | EIA Fuel Code | Description |
|---|
COAL | COL | Anthracite Coal and Bituminous Coal |
WASTE_COAL | WOC | Waste/Other Coal (includes anthracite culm, gob, fine coal, lignite waste, waste coal) |
DISTILLATE_FUEL_OIL | DFO | Distillate Fuel Oil (Diesel, No. 1, No. 2, and No. 4) |
WASTE_OIL | WOO | Waste Oil Kerosene and JetFuel Butane, Propane |
PETROLEUM_COKE | PC | Petroleum Coke |
RESIDUAL_FUEL_OIL | RFO | Residual Fuel Oil (No. 5, No. 6 Fuel Oils, and Bunker Oil) |
NATURAL_GAS | NG | Natural Gas |
OTHER_GAS | OOG | Other Gas and blast furnace gas |
NUCLEAR | NUC | Nuclear Fission (Uranium, Plutonium, Thorium) |
AG_BIPRODUCT | ORW | Agricultural Crop Byproducts/Straw/Energy Crops |
MUNICIPAL_WASTE | MLG | Municipal Solid Waste – Biogenic component |
WOOD_WASTE | WWW | Wood Waste Liquids excluding Black Liquor (BLQ) (Includes red liquor, sludge wood, spent sulfite liquor, and other wood-based liquids) |
GEOTHERMAL | GEO | Geothermal |
OTHER | OTH | Other |
Each generator struct contains a field for prime_mover::PrimeMovers where PrimeMovers are intended to reflect the options denoted by EIA form 923. Specifically, PrimeMovers is an enumerated type with the following options:
| EnumName | Description |
|---|
