Abstract:

This Power Module Volume is divided into a users manual, a program reference manual, and a program listing. In this users manual, input formats are outlined for each power system diesel engine, gas-turbine engine, turbo-alternator, fuel cells, and batteries. The module calculates the performance characteristics of each system and also selects commercially available power systems from a data base for both diesel and gas-turbine to meet the power output requirements. Five sample problems, one for each power system, illustrate the use of the Power Module.
