Data Classes

Data Classes#

The WOMBAT architecture relies heavily on a base set of data classes to process most of the model's inputs. This enables a rigid, yet robust data model to properly define a simulation.

What is this `FromDictMixin` I keep seeing in the code diagrams?#

The FromDictMixin class provides a standard method for providing dictionary definitions to attrs dataclasses without worrying about overloading the definition. Plus, you get the convenience of writing cls.from_dict(data_dict) instead of cls(**data_dict), and hoping for the best.

class wombat.core.data_classes.FromDictMixin[source]#

A Mixin class to allow for kwargs overloading when a data class doesn't have a specific parameter definied. This allows passing of larger dictionaries to a data class without throwing an error.

Raises:: AttributeError -- Raised if the required class inputs are not provided.

classmethod from_dict(data)[source]#

Map a data dictionary to an attrs-defined class.

TODO: Add an error to ensure that either none or all the parameters are passed

Parameters:

data (dict) -- The data dictionary to be mapped.

Returns:

clsAny: The attrs-defined class.

Activities necessary to forecast, dispatch, sell, and manage the production of power from the plant. Includes both the onsite and offsite personnel, software, and equipment to coordinate high voltage equipment, switching, port activities, and marine activities.

Note

This should only be used when not breaking down the cost into the following categories: project_management_administration, operation_management_administration, marine_management, and/or weather_forecasting
project_management_administration (float) -- Financial reporting, public relations, procurement, parts and stock management, H&SE management, training, subcontracts, and general administration.
marine_management (float) -- Coordination of port equipment, vessels, and personnel to carry out inspections and maintenance of generation and transmission equipment.
weather_forecasting (float) -- Daily forecast of metocean conditions used to plan maintenance visits and estimate project power production.
condition_monitoring (float) -- Monitoring of SCADA data from wind turbine components to optimize performance and identify component faults.
operating_facilities (float) -- Co-located offices, parts store, quayside facilities, helipad, refueling facilities, hanger (if necesssary), etc.
environmental_health_safety_monitoring (float) -- Coordination and monitoring to ensure compliance with HSE requirements during operations.
insurance (float) --
Insurance policies during operational period including All Risk Property, Buisness Interuption, Third Party Liability, and Brokers Fee, and Storm Coverage.

Note

This should only be used when not breaking down the cost into the following categories: brokers_fee, operations_all_risk, business_interruption, third_party_liability, and/or storm_coverage
brokers_fee (float) -- Fees for arranging the insurance package.
operations_all_risk (float) -- All Risk Property (physical damage). Sudden and unforseen physical loss or physical damage to teh plant/assets during the operational phase of a project.
business_interruption (float) -- Sudden and unforseen loss or physical damage to the plant/assets during the operational phase of a project causing an interruption.
third_party_liability (float) -- Liability imposed by law, and/or Express Contractual Liability, for bodily injury or property damage.
storm_coverage (float) -- Coverage from huricane and tropical storm events (tyipcally for Atlantic Coast projects).
annual_leases_fees (float) --
Ongoing payments, including but not limited to: payments to regulatory body for permission to operate at project site (terms defined within lease); payments to Transmission Systems Operators or Transmission Asseet Owners for rights to transport generated power.

Note

This should only be used when not breaking down the cost into the following categories: submerge_land_lease_costs and/or transmission_charges_rights
submerge_land_lease_costs (float) -- Payments to submerged land owners for rights to build project during operations.
transmission_charges_rights (float) -- Any payments to Transmissions Systems Operators or Transmission Asset Owners for rights to transport generated power.
onshore_electrical_maintenance (float) --
Inspections of cables, transformer, switch gears, power compensation equipment, etc. and infrequent repairs

Warning

This should only be used if not modeling these as processes within the model. Currently, onshore modeling is not included.
labor (float) -- The costs associated with labor, if not being modeled through the simulated processes.
