Subject: WEAP LEAP Link Problem_Time Slices   
Posted: 11/2/2020 Viewed: 6931 times
Hi,

I am trying to link WEAP and LEAP models. In my WEAP model, the simulation period is between 2004 - 2017. Time steps per year are 12 and the leap days are not added. Time step boundary is based on a calendar month and the water year starts from October. Thus, the study period is running from October 2003 to September 2017.

In my LEAP model, the base year is 2004, the first scenario year 2005 and the end year is 2017. There are 12 months and 12 time slices so that the time slices match with the time slices in WEAP. When I try to link the LEAP model with WEAP, I cannot do it. For example, when I try to link the January (31) in LEAP with the January (31) in WEAP, it doesn't let me do so but I can select any other time slice other than January (31). This problem is also valid for the other time slices. I cannot match the February (28) in LEAP with February (28) in WEAP and so on.

I have changed the beginning of the water year from October to January in WEAP but the problem still exists. Thus, I don't understand what the problem is.

I would be really appreciated if you can help me to figure out this problem.
Regards,
Zeynep

Hi again,

I have found the problem. The problem is about the version of the LEAP that I am using. I have tried to link my WEAP model with older LEAP Version: 2018.0.1.26 (32-Bit). Everything is fine now. I write in case anyone has the same problem and LEAP officials are interested.

Best,
Zeynep

Hi Ms. Zeynep Özcan,

I have experienced the same problem and still having it right now.

Is using the older version of LEAP the only solution?
And can you please share with me the older version setting up file? or how to find it? I didn't find the link of downloading the older version LEAP on its website.

Thanks
Xin
Ms. Zeynep Özcan

Hi Ms. Xin Guan,

I am not sure if using the older version of LEAP is the only solution but I am still using the older version :)

I e-mailed leap@sei.org to send me the old version of LEAP and they sent it to me. I would recommend you to email them. Maybe they will suggest another solution.

Kind regards,
Zeynep
Ms. Xin Guan
