Hello Doctors:
I am running a unit commitment simulation for the 24 bus reliability test system, for a time horizon of 24 hours with an hourly time step. Problem 1: The wind power input from time series data is not following the specified pattern. To fix this, I've tried following the "most_ex6_uc" example in MOST. I've added the wind data as in the example "ex_wind_profile_uc". I am certain that in the "wind.xgd_table.data" file the wind power input is marked with the number 2 for a "CommitKey" value. I've removed the wind input from the mpc data, specifically on "mpc.gen", "mpc.gencost" and "mpc.reserves", since only using "add_wind" and "get_profiles" is enough; according to the example. Nevertheless, I realise that the wind power input is moving freely through each one of the time steps, whereas in the "most_ex6_uc" example this is not the case. I would like my case to follow the hourly wind pattern during 24hrs just like in the example. I will be very helpful if you could explain to me why this is happening and how to solve it. Problem 2: Is it possible to use the final output data of UC? Save it and use it next with different constraints added to a second UC problem? I am interested in saving the data of certain power output of some units after the simulation is performed. I would like to know how would you approach this. As always, thank you very much in advance, your input has been widely helpful, best wishes, -- Carlos Ferrandon
