Additional Product Information
Program AQUARIUS has been developed by PWSC to simulate and optimise the operation of integrated water resource and power supply systems. It has been specifically designed to provide :
-detailed modelling of hydro-thermal power generation systems operating in accordance with constraints imposed by multi-purpose water usage, multiple electricity demand centres, and generating plant and transmission constraints of both a technical and commercial nature;
-a sophisticated Graphical User Interface (GUI) for defining the configuration of the system to be modelled, and for the input or modification of associated data via on-screen templates;
-robust Linear and Dynamic Programming algorithms for, respectively, the daily optimisation of system operation and the long-term optimisation of stored water values;
-automatic database storage of simulation results, including load dispatch details and marginal costs, so as to provide full modelling transparency and facilitate regulatory audit;
-'real time' graphical screen displays of system behaviour, and the display and high definition printed output of database generated time series of any combination of simulation results;
-a generalised software package equally applicable for optimising day-to-day operation, as well as development planning and commercial contract evaluation applications.
