Power Equipment
AggFlow DM will track the power sources and uses for each piece of equipment in the plant and for the entire plant. Power sources and uses are defined by the user.
Power equipment items include Outside Power, Internal Power (generator), fuel tank and personnel. Poser usage can be tracked by setting the power for each piece of equipment in the worksheet and selecting the source of the power. Fuel usage is tracked by setting the fuel consumption rates for the equipment including any generators and installing a fuel tank.
Tracking Power is useful for everyday operating information, for reporting and for a complete understanding of what the plant is actually doing.
