HOMER Grid 1.9
The Boiler tab in the Simulation Results window contains the following output variables.
Variable |
Description |
Hours of Operation |
The total run time of the boiler during the year, in hr/yr |
Total Production |
The total amount of thermal energy produced by the boiler per year, in kWh/yr |
Mean Output |
The average thermal power output of the boiler over the hours that it runs, in kW |
Min. Output |
The lowest thermal power output of the boiler over the year, in kW |
Max. Output |
The highest thermal power output of the boiler over the year, in kW |
Fuel Consumption |
The total amount of fuel consumed by the boiler during the year, in L/yr |
Specific Fuel Consumption |
The average quantity of fuel consumed per kWh of thermal energy produced by the boiler, in L/kWh |
Mean Efficiency |
The total annual thermal energy production divided by the total annual fuel energy consumption, in % |
In the bottom half of the page a DMap shows the thermal power output of the boiler in each time step of the year.
