Consultation on equipment cost year #146

Open zasddsgg opened 1 week ago

zasddsgg commented 1 week ago

Hello, for units created with code bst.units, such as pump, Flash, HXutility, distillation column, could I consult you what is the default equipment cost year? If I set bst. setting. CEPCI = 596.2 (2020 year) at the beginning of the process, do the pump, Flash, HXutility, distillation column in Itemized costs datasheet in excel exported after TEA execution refer to 2020 year? Does the Itemized costs of a unit that has been set CE for a certain year, such as PressureFilter (https://biosteam.readthedocs.io/en/latest/_modules/biosteam/units/solids_separation.html#PressureFilter), also refer to 2020 year? Is the equipment cost of all the above units in 2020 year (not other years) used for the calculation of TEA? Thanks for your help. Wish you a good day.
