Update ZIP parameters #11

Open jmaguire1 opened 1 year ago

[ ] Compare current parameters with literature
[ ] Check if we have any lab data from SPL to inform PF/ZIP parameters
[ ] Create mode-level zip parameters (i.e., account for the difference between HP and backup electric resistance for an ASHP or HPWH)
[ ] Add option to report house-level ZIP coefficients or exponents to integrate with grid load model

Update ZIP parameters from https://ieeexplore.ieee.org/document/9539187. See tables in above paper and original sources. Some sources should also have power factor data

I'd like to revisit the ZIP coefficients we have in OCHRE. Right now they're based on literature review, but we have all the appliances in SPL so as much as we can we should try to get data from the lab equipment and use that directly.

Another option is to co-optimize power/voltage with the grid model. Likely required to study voltage violations with Volt-VAR and other advanced inverter functions.

Hmmm, that'd be pretty interesting, but we probably need a study with that actual use case if we want to add that functionality. Maybe worth starting a new issue with a little more detail to track the idea for the future?

Good intern task
