https://ies.inl.gov/Training%20Documents/Day%201%20-05-%20Introduction%20to%20Electric%20Markets.pdf
​This presentation provides a brief, high-level overview of the US Wholesale Electricity Markets. It points out the importance of generator cost structure as it relates to a competitive position in the market and how this relates to the generator's bid to participate in markets. Then the presentation introduces the relationship between the day-ahead market, the real-time market, and the ancillary services market.

​Feasible Actuator Range Modifier (FARM) is a RAVEN (https://github.com/idaholab/raven) plugin designed to solve the supervisory control problem in Integrated Energy System (IES) project. FARM utilizes the linear state-space representation (A ,B, C matrices) of a model to predict the system state and output in the future time steps, and adjust the actuation variable to avoid the violation of implicit thermal-mechanical constraints.

https://ies.inl.gov/Training%20Documents/Day%203%20-03-%20HERON%20Example%20Cases.pdf
​A step-by-step guide to a simple HERON problem, where we discuss the scope of the problem, questions to be answered, components within the problem, setting up inputs, running the code, and viewing outputs from the run. By the end of this guide, a HERON user should be ready to run their own simple cases.

https://ies.inl.gov/Training%20Documents/Day%204%20-02-%20HYBRID%20Training%20Model%20Development.pdf
​An in-depth talk on how to develop a model using the Modelica language ranging from defining variables with units to implementing function calls to GUI figure design. This is followed by a discussion on introducing enhancements and control schemes into existing models. All of this is wrapped up with a short discussion on how to access simulation data and scripting of runs.

https://ies.inl.gov/Training%20Documents/Day%204%20-04-%20HighLow%20Fidelity%20Model%20Coupling%20using%20FMI.pdf
​This work demonstrates new functionality and applications stemming from the development of high-fidelity to low-fidelity (high-low) coupling for system simulations and to further explore the capabilities of the Risk Analysis Virtual Environment (RAVEN) in the performance of uncertainty quantification in this kind of high-low coupled system models. The workflows for both steady-state and transient coupled simulations are described. A steady-state parameter sweep and uncertainty analysis of the primary flow rates and reactor power is demonstrated. Likewise, transient pump trip and power ramp sensitivity studies are also demonstrated. This work elucidates some of the potential benefits and future needs of using RAVEN for high/low system coupling analysis of energy systems. It also shows some of the difficulties that can be encountered in coupling system simulations.​
