Combined Cycle Modeling

This issue concerns combined cycles’ unique incremental heat input curve. Various components of combined cycle operation are not defined clearly in Manual 15. Currently, combined cycles are modeled similarly to other unit types in PJM, but may not be the same in terms of physical parameters. Due to different unit setups (various combustion turbine combinations), combined cycle units may be offered inconsistently by various participants due to the lack of clarity in Manual 15.
