Common use of Capacity Testing Clause in Contracts

Capacity Testing. Capacity test results will be corrected to the rated conditions (the "Output Rated Conditions") applicable to the Guaranteed Output for such Project, as set forth, (a) in the case of an Initial Project, in Schedule IV to the Credit Agreement; or (b) in the case of a Subsequent Project, in the Project Schedule delivered pursuant to Section 3.04 of the Credit Agreement for such Project. The demonstrated net output of the Project will be as measured by the test metering system and corrected to such Project's Output Rated Conditions. PTC 46 correction curves will be produced by SCS using a GateCycle computer model, created from design input provided by the equipment vendors. Combustion turbine evaporative coolers, HRSG ductburners and power augmentation steam injection will be in service. Net unit capacity will be corrected from test to design conditions for the following parameters as required by PTC 46: Ambient Dry Bulb Temperature Ambient Humidity (or wet bulb temperature) Barometric Pressure (or elevation) HRSG Blowdown Flow Condenser Makeup Flow and Temperature Fuel Temperature (upstream of fuel heaters) Power Factor (each generator) Abnormal Auxiliary Power Loads Abnormal Fuel Properties Abnormal Unit Operating Conditions Heat Rate Testing: Heat rate test results will be corrected to the rated operating conditions (the "Heat Rate Rated Conditions") applicable to the Guaranteed Heat Rate for such Project, as set forth, (a) in the case of an Initial Project, in Schedule IV to the Credit Agreement; or (b) in the case of a Subsequent Project, in the Project Schedule delivered pursuant to Section 3.04 of the Credit Agreement for such Project. The demonstrated net heat rate of the Project will be as measured by the test metering system and corrected to such Project's Heat Rate Rated Conditions. PTC 46 heat rate correction curves will be produced by SCS using a GateCycle computer model, created from design input provided by the equipment vendors. Combustion turbine evaporative coolers will be in service or appropriate corrections will be applied. HRSG ductburners and power augmentation will be out of service. Net unit heat rate will be corrected from test to design conditions for the following parameters, as required by PTC 46: Ambient Dry Bulb Temperature Ambient Humidity (or wet bulb temperature) HRSG Blowdown Flow - Condenser Makeup Flow and Temperature - Fuel Temperature (Upstream of fuel heaters) Power Factor (each generator) Abnormal Aux. Power Loads Abnormal Fuel Properties Abnormal Unit Operating Conditions Essential Data Requirements: Test data will be obtained using test instruments which meet the requirements of PTC 46. Specific methods which will be employed for significant data points are as follows:
