| Integrated Energy Systems (IES) Program Overview
| FORCE Training Day 1 002 IES Program Overview
| Day 1 -01- US DOE IES Overview.pdf
| This presentation is a high-level overview of
the US DOE Integrated Energy Systems (IES) program.
| FORCE Overview
| FORCE Training Day 1 003 FORCE Overview
| Day 1 -02- FORCE Overview.pdf
| This presentation is a high-level overview of
the FORCE tool suite developed by the IES program.
| HERON Overview
| FORCE Training Day 1 004 FORCE HERON Overview
| Day 1 -03- HERON Overview.pdf
| A high-level overview of the HERON software that
is part of the IES’ FORCE tool suite, including motivations, purpose, a brief
look at inputs and outputs, some previous examples of work done using HERON,
and some current work underway to improve the tool. These are expanded on in
the HERON-specific workshop material.
| HYBRID Overview
| FORCE Training Day 1 005 FORCE Hybrid Overview
| Day 1 -04- Hybrid Overview.pdf
| A high-level overview of the HYBRID collection
of models that is part of the IES’ FORCE tool suite, including motivations,
purpose, a brief look at inputs and outputs, as well as different models and
their interconnectability.
| Introduction to Markets
| FORCE Training Day 1 006 Introduction to Markets
| Day 1 -05- Introduction to Electric Markets.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.

| HERON Introduction
| FORCE Training Day 3 002 HERON Purpose, inputs and outputs
| Day 3 -01- HERON Purpose and IO.pdf
| A more in-depth overview of HERON, including similar information as the overview but with more depth. In particular, significant time is spent on the inputs and outputs to HERON, including where each can be obtained and how results can be understood.
| HERON Synth History
| FORCE Training Day 3 003 HERON Synthetic History
| Day 3 -02- HERON Synthetic History Training.pdf
| A workshop on building synthetic history
generators for application in IES toolsets, particularly HERON. This includes
some methodology overviews, as well as suggestions and guides on training
synthetic history generators for various IES analyses.
| Demonstration
| FORCE Training Day 3 004 HERON Demonstration
| Day 3 -03- HERON Example Cases.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.

| HYBRID Introduction
| FORCE Training Day 4 002 Intro to Modelica and Hybrid
| Day 4 -01- HYBRID Training Intro.pdf
| Introduction to the basics of Modelica, why
Modelica, what is Dymola, and an introduction to the features of the language.
This is followed by a simple overview of the basic model in Modelica and then an
introduction to the purpose and models contained in the HYBRID repository.
| HYBRID Models
| FORCE Training Day 4 003 Model HybridDevelopment
| Day 4 -02- HYBRID Training Model Development.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.
| HYBRID Analysts
| FORCE Training Day 4 004 Hybrid for Analysts
| Day 4 -03- HYBRID Training Analyst Presentation.pdf
| Introduction to the plug-and-play nature of
Modelica via the HYBRID repository, introduction to initial conditions and
interoperability with RAVEN, followed by a discussion of the FMI/FMU
capabilities in Dymola.
| FMU/FMI
| FORCE Training Day 4 005 Mockup High/Low Fidelity Model Coupling FMI/FMU
| Day 4 -04- High Low Fidelity Model Coupling using FMI.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.
