3.1.11.1. Constant TimeSeries

This command is used to construct a TimeSeries object in which the load factor applied remains constant and is independent of the time in the domain, i.e. \(\lambda = f(t) = C\).

Fig. 3.1.11.1 Constant Time Series

timeSeries Constant $tag <-factor $cFactor>

Argument	Type	Description
$tag	integer	unique tag among TimeSeries objects.
$cFactor	float	the load factor applied (optional: default=1.0)

Example:

The following code demonstrates how user would create two constant time series, the first with tag 1 has a 1.0 factor, the second 2 has a constant load factr of 10.0.

1. Tcl Code

timeSeries Constant 1
timeSeries Constant 2 -factor 10.0

2. Python Code

timSeries('Constant',  1)
timSeries('Constant',  2, '-factor', 10.0)
