Cooling Water Temperature to Generated Power Efficiency

Since 1st of August, weather still hot, but the generated power efficiency (EFF.) value
is slightly increase which compare with July, after some analysis by collected data, we
can found that the under the same environment temperature, the cooling water

temperature was 1 degree lower, please refer to Figure 1.

Furthermore, we looking into more detail on the relation between EFF. And cooling
water temperature, we can found that the lower temperature of cooling water, the
higher EFF. we got, please refer to Figure 2., under the same environment
temperature, the green spot(August) are the highest compare with June and July,
(some purple spots at top is because low environment temperature.
After compare the parameter from collected data, we can found that the major root
cause might be from cooling water flow and pressure, please refer to Figure 3.

Test Plan
To verify the cooling water temperature between cooling water flow and pressure.
Furthermore, check the efficiency in different cooling water temperature.
