7. Remarks for Usage

Some remarks about the structure of GridConstructor syntax:

1. Activate/Deactivate connectors of the Basic_Grid_Elements depending on the setting for el_in/el_out/gas_in/gas_out on Grid_constructor level:

if el_in = false all electric connectors are deactivated

if el_in = true but el_out = false then el_out of last Basic_Grid_Element is set to false --> Grid_Constructor represents the end of a beam of the electric grid

if gas_in = false all electric connectors are deactivated

if gas_in = true but gas_out = false then gas_out of last Basic_Grid_Element is set to false --> Grid_Constructor represents the end of a beam of the gas grid

2. Assign second_Consumer values

3. Deactivate pipe segments, in Basic_Grid_Elements in which none of the buildings is connected to the gas grid while gas_in is still activated

4.Assign load-profile triples from load-profile data tables to the buildings:

Starting from column start_c1/start_c2 in table Demand_Consumer_1/Demand_Consumer_2 consecutive load-profile triples are assigned to consecutive buildings in the upper/lower row  

5. Assign a Systems model Systems_Consumer_1/Systems_Consumer_2 to the buildings in the upper/lower row and finalize the individual technology selection with the respective boolean parameter vectors

6. Parametrise the cable and gas pipe models with the respective parameter vectors
