Products Info Order SIMAHPP Download Screenshots : Below are a few screenshots of SIMAHPP graphical interface: New! Net Present Value (NPV) & Internal Rate of Return (IRR) comparison charts Simulation results with graphs for flow hydrographs and design flows Simulation results with graphs for power and energy production Simulation results with comparative graphs for design flow, optimum time of operations Simulation results with comparative graphs for power, energy production Simulation results with comparative graphs for investment costs, energy revenues Simulation results with comparative graphs for payback periods, amortization rates Simulation results with comparative graphs for carbon emission reduction Overall simulation results for various hydro system options or scenarios   SIMAHPP®4 Light is Windows based software used to simulate and assess the feasibility of hydropower projects, particularly for small-scale hydro projects with a capacity of up to 10 MW. It is a single-site, multi-option simulator intended to solve a wide range of problems such as determining design flow to chose appropriate hydro turbine, optimized time of operation in a year so as to maximize the hydropower and thus increasing the annual energy production, determine the energy revenue, estimate investment and related costs, determine amortization rates, Net Present Value (NPV), Internal Rate of Return (IRR), payback periods, and indicates the quantity of carbon emission reduction potential if the planned hydropower project is to be operational. It also suggests appropriate turbine types. Unlike the Professional or Standard version, SIMAHPP 4 Light doesn't provide comparison charts. For more information about this feature, you may look at the SIMAHPP 4 Professional or SIMAHPP 4 Standard page SIMAHPP 4 Professional Slideshow (Note: SIMAHPP 4 Light has similar graphical interface as SIMAHPP 4 Professional except the missing specific features not available in the Light version) Key Features Simulation Outputs SIMAHPP Users System Compatibility Slideshow Download Order SIMAHPP With SIMAHPP 4 Light, users have full control on all input parameters of various project scenarios and possibilities and can see results with a wide range of analysis and graphical demonstrations. The program has five major sections: advanced file manager, project options, hydraulic, financial, and environmental modules, and the Simulator. Capabilities and key features SIMAHPP graphical interface has the following key features: Simulate small and large hydropower systems up to 10 MW capacity Simulate single to multi-site hydropower systems Multi-criteria project evaluation: hydraulic evaluation, financial evaluation, and environmental evaluation Standard financial module to determine investment costs Multi-flow data editor Variable head- and tailwater elevations editor Wide range of turbine efficiency selections Wide range of project service life selections More than 140 currency options and user defined exchange rate Easy to use graphical interface Save, Preview and print results Format option for graph types, colors Advanced file manager for ease placement and retrieval of files Import older versions of SIMAHPP, i.e SIMAHPP v2xx and above File backup option while importing older project file Create SIMAHPP Project Exchange file (*.SPX) Convert *.SPX to the SIMAHPP Project Root file *.SPR Easy to use parameter editors Online Help Contents and User's Guide Technical support through our Support Desk Interface background color preference Quick guide dialog launch option Financial evaluation With SIMAHPP 4 Professional, users can determine the feasibility of the project based on the simulation results such as: Investment costs Net Present Value (NPV) Internal Rate of Return (IRR) Amortization plan on yearly or monthly basis Payback period Investment costs per system capacity Carbon market revenue, etc. Hydraulic evaluation On the technical aspect, SIMAHPP 4 Professional calculates: Design flow Power for a wide range of system efficiency Maximized energy production using optimized system operation period Appropriate turbine type for the simulated hydropower system Environmental evaluation From the environmental point of view, SIMAHPP 4 Light calculates the carbon emission reduction potential of the project based of user’s specific situations and conversion parameters.
