Difference batch mode to "normal" simulation

[sailerthomas]

Hi There.

I conducted simulations in the batch mode. Furthermore i conducted one of the simulations of the batch mode again in the "normal mode". I had to state that the results of both simulations differ.

How can that be?

Thanks,

Hi everyone,

I have exactly the same problem, the differences are quite small but it still can have a real economic impact on our studies. I can detail more what I did. So, I ran a batch simulation with ticking the box "Create hourly files", then I set my output files to "Monthly values". My batch simulation is about to simulate over 10 years of functioning, so my only parameter is "Year of simulation". After that I just compared the different values of the variable "Energy injected to the grid", and the results are :

batch normal

0 43229 43220

1 43166 43151

2 43040 43017

3 42894 42882

4 42729 42729

...

After that results are the same, but so for the first years there are some differences, which can also be noticed at month level. For information, I just let the default values for the degradation over the years and I ticked the box "Keeps calculated mismatch values".

So my question is the same than sailerthomas, how is that possible ?

Thank you for your answer,
