Exporting Data

There are a number of ways to export data from the IECM. These are described elsewhere in this document; they are summarized here for your convenience:

•The Export Sub-menu in the File Menu: The File menu on the left side of the session window's menu bar contains an Export submenu which allows you to export various types of data across the entire plant. These commands allow you to keep a human-readable record of your session.

•Printing: The File menu on the left side of the session window's menu bar contains Print Preview and Print commands which allow you to print most screens.

•The Right-Click Menu: The right-click menu for most parameters and results includes commands which copy information to the clipboard .

•Copy Buttons in Analysis Tools: The analysis tools, sensitivity analysis and uncertainty , contain buttons which allow you to copy various result tables and graphs.

You may also want to copy session, coal and/or CO2 reservoir databases, for your own use on another computer or to share them with others. Information on how to create and populate new databases is found here:

•Session Databases: Use Save-As to save a copy of a session. You may create a new session database if needed.

•Fuel Databases: You can add and save fuels to a fuel database , creating a new fuel database if needed.

•CO2 Reservoir Databases: You can add and save reservoirs to a reservoir database , creating a new reservoir database if needed.

Note:

There may be a couple of additional files associated with your databases. For example, the session database my-sessions.sdb may also include the files my-sessions.sdb-shm and my-sessions.sdb-wal. These files are created in some cases by the database engine to record recent changes. If these files exist when you copy your database, you will need to copy them as well.
