I recently noticed that the load data for consumption seems to not match the provided data, as in the annual course table that you can edit does not match the consumption graph shown above, I have attached two screenshots showing the issue, one user inputted, with all months and days being identical, and Brazil/Block of flights to show that the error applies to both default and user-input data.

My guess is a calculation issue, as the output data seems to be higher on months with 31 days and lowest in February with the fewest days.

Any help is appreciated on either fixing the bug or making a load profile to counter the issue, it's only a 3% difference but that can make the difference in some projects.

 

Hi PVJames,

thank you for reporting this. We already know of this behaviour, the percentages relate to single days as you already suspected. So if evenly distributed as in your first example, you'll have 31 portions in January and only 28 in February. 

See this thread here, there is an Excel sheet where you can prepare your data accordingly if you want to have an equal monthly percentage:

 

We have planned to add this as an option to the dialog, so that users can choose between the daily and the monthly approach.

Best,

Martin
