I ECYCLE = 3/11 x El + 11/11 x E1 + 3/11 x E3, where El, E2, and E3 are the annual energies of the first, second and third years respectively. If the annual energies are the target EIA energies, then ECYCLE would be the cycle energy generation on the data base that would exactly match the target energies. Now if ESFDB is the unadjusted cycle energy, the adjustment ratio would be ECYCLE/ESFDB. After the adjustment is made, ESFOB is replaced by ECYCLE, and all discharges are adjusted by the adjustment factor ECYCLE!ESFDB. The allocation of cycle energy to years ~tlould be EADJl = 3!18 x ECYCLE for the first year. The original allocation is 3/12 x El. If the adjustment were exact, then the ratio of adjusted first year allocation, EADJl, to 3/12 x El should equal unity. The ratio is: This expression will be unity only if El = E2 = E3.

scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
