The following tables describe the input and output UDC mappings that the Line Pack driver sets for each pack segment calculation for supercritical CO2. UDCs are configured on the UDC Map page of the device editor and must be configured for every pack segment. Any UDCs not defined for the optional outputs will not be set and will not generate any warnings.
The UDCs listed with the Last Segment Input: prefix indicate the points that are set for each pack segment and used as inputs to the Line Pack calculation. These points will hold the last good value of the specified input. See Calculation Inputs for more information.
See the following subsections for more information:
The following table describes the point record configurations required for Line Pack. These UDCs must be configured for the facility of every pack sub-segment and for any pack segments that have no pack sub-segments.
