Perform any one-time initialization run at instantiation.

setup()#

Declare inputs and outputs.

Available attributes:

name pathname comm options

calc_cost_value(b0, b1, b2, b3, b4)#

Calculate the value of the cost function for the given coefficients.

Parameters:

  • b0 (float) – Coefficient representing the base cost.

  • b1 (float) – Coefficient for the Hc (hydrogenation capacity) term.

  • b2 (float) – Coefficient for the Dc (dehydrogenation capacity) term.

  • b3 (float) – Coefficient for the Ms (maximum storage) term.

  • b4 (float) – Coefficient for the As (annual hydrogen into storage) term.

Returns:

float – The calculated cost value based on the provided coefficients and attributes.

compute(inputs, outputs, discrete_inputs, discrete_outputs)#

Computation for the OM component.

For a template class this is not implement and raises an error.
