This model was released as part of build 126.

This model is used in Dynamic Simulation only.

The Single Variable Histogram can be used to calculate and display statistical information about one variable. The Histogram graphic can be displayed by holding down the shift key and left mouse clicking on the Single Variable Histogram graphical symbol. From the menu, select "Histogram" and place on the flowsheet.

Tag / Symbol Input / Calc Description
Mode;
Tag Output Displays the tag name of the unit.
Condition Output OK if no errors, otherwise displays error message.
EqpDesc Input Optional unit description field.
Logging Tick box When ticked, the model will log data and perform calculations.
StatTag Input The tag which will be logged, graphed and calculations performed on its values.
Reset Button This will reset the calculations and histogram.
Auto_Reset Tick box If ticked, the calculations and histogram will be reset at the beginning of every time the model is rerun.
HistoMin Input The minimum value to be shown on the histogram. Any values lower than this will be shown as a single bar on the histogram.
HistoMax Input The maximum value to be shown on the histogram. Any values higher than this will be shown as a single bar on the histogram.
HistoCount Input The number of intervals to be shown on the histogram. This excludes the bar for values which are under the specified minimum and the bar for values which are over the specified maximum.
Graph_Units List The units to be used on the histogram. This list will change depending on the tag chosen for StatTag.
Avg Calc The average of the logged values of the specified tag since the model was last reset.
StdDev Calc The standard deviation of the logged values of the specified tag since the model was last reset.
Min Output The minimum value of the specified tag since the model was last reset.
Max Output The maximum value of the specified tag since the model was last reset.
N Output The number of values of the specified tag logged since the model was last reset.
The following tags appear on the Histogram tab page.
...
RSHR Output The number of values (records) of the specified tag logged since the model (histogram) was last reset.
Buckets.[Bucket Number]...
The buckets are simply the intervals on the histogram. The number of buckets = HistoCount + 2
Min Output The minimum value of the specified tag since the model was last reset for this bucket/interval.
Max Output The maximum value of the specified tag since the model was last reset for this bucket/interval.
Count Output The number of values which fit into this bucket/interval.

Note: If the value of the stattag is not a number (NAN) (shown as a "*"), then this will be counted as outside the range and put into the last bucket/interval.
