Load Flow Display Options

Output Reports
Load flow calculation results are reported both on the one-line diagram and in the Crystal Reports format. The Report Manager can be accessed from the Load Flow toolbar. The Report Manager allows selecting formats available for different portions of the report and view it via Crystal Reports.

Motor Starting Time-Slider

Once a motor starting study is completed, the Motor Starting TimeSlider, will appear next to the Configuration & Mode Toolbar. The slider ranges from zero to the total simulation time. Initially, the reference pointer is at the far left, corresponding to t = 0 seconds.

Harmonic Load Flow Slider

This slider has three sections. They are: Total 1 (fundamental frequency) h (a harmonic order from 2 to 73).

Harmonic Frequency Scan Slider

Harmonic Frequency Scan Slider displays the magnitude and phase angle of the bus driving point impedance for the selected frequency. Only those buses, which are selected in the Harmonic Study Case Editor for plotting, are available to display.
