PNPP Site Evaluation Criteria (cont’d)
For both levelsIf neither wind speed reading is obtained from front-end processor
set valid value to the bad wind speed value and set flag to 9If both wind speeds were “off” or “out of range”
set valid value to the bad wind speed value and set flag to 9If one wind speed was “off” or “out of range”
set valid value to good measurement and set flag to5 if using Train A or 6 if using Train B
If both wind speeds are a “stuck” value for last 12 15-minute periodsset valid value to the bad wind speed value and set flag to 8
If only one current wind speed is a “stuck” value for last 12 15-min periodsset valid value to the other train and set flag to 7
Wind Direction Sensor Algorithm
0 Normal data validation. Using System A
1 Secondary validation required, using System A. For dew point the freeze-point was converted to dew point, or dew point slightly above the temperature and has been set to the temperature.
2 Secondary validation required, using System B
3 Used only for delta-t and temperature: one aspirator failed. Using the other system sensor.
Validity Flags
4 Using System A Data. Validation exceed criteria because:
Both System A and B wind directions were blowing through the tower.
Secondary validation detected direction change with height greater than 30 degrees.
Wind speed below light wind limit or wind speed less than predetermined criteria.
Delta-t differences occurred during sunrise/sunset
Validity Flags (continued)
5/6 No Validation. Problem detected with System B/A sensor (turned “off” or problem with time/date stamp or reading data logger file) using System A/B
7 Ambient Temperature/Delta-T --Both aspirators off, results could be affected
Dew point --possible “stuck” sensor (same reading for 5 readings)
Precipitation --Difference between temperature and dew point greater than 10 F.
Wind Speed --One sensor at same level is “stuck” (same reading for 13 readings)
Pressure --possible “stuck” sensor (same reading for 5 readings).
Validity Flags (continued)
8 Failed all validation checks. System A values passed if possible.
Dew point exceeded temperature by greater than allowable criteria. Dew point reset to temperature.
Wind Speed --Both sensors at same level are “stuck” (same reading for 13 readings)
9 No data obtained from either data logger or all similar sensors on same level turned “off”
Validity Flags (continued)
0-3 Good data, best of both Systems A and B
4-6 Requires closer review because system validation was limited or non-existent
Validity Flags Summary
0-3 Good data, best of both Systems A and B
4-6 Requires closer review because system validation was limited or non-existent
7-8 Requires intense scrutiny because data failed system validation
Validity Flags Summary
0-3 Good data, best of both Systems A and B
4-6 Requires closer review because system validation was limited or non-existent
7-8 Requires intense scrutiny because data failed system validation
9 Bad or missing data
