Add eval harness + Tier 2/3 mode template pages
### eval/ (scenario-based evaluation)
Complements the unit tests under test/basic. Scenarios fluctuate inputs
over simulated time, record every tick to JSONL, print a summary
table + event log, and check expectations. Complementary to unit
tests — these answer "how does the system respond to this input
profile" rather than "is this function correct".
- eval/run.js — driver; monkey-patches Date.now so the
volume integrator ticks at 1 s/iter
regardless of wall-clock
- eval/scenarios/ — one file per scenario
- levelbased-steady.js — constant inflow, demand converges
- levelbased-storm.js — inflow surge, demand saturates
- safety-dry-run-trip.js — manual mode, empty basin, safety trips
- eval/formatters/table.js — ASCII summary of sampled ticks
- eval/logs/ — per-scenario JSONL output (one line per tick)
- eval/README.md — usage + scenario file shape + how to pipe
into InfluxDB/Grafana
All three starter scenarios PASS with their expectations.
### wiki/modes/ (tier template pages)
The levelbased page templated Tier-1 modes (static transfer function).
Added worked examples for the other two tiers so all mode pages share
a common skeleton and new modes have something concrete to imitate:
- flowbased.md — Tier 2 (PID on measured outflow)
- powerbased.md — Tier 2 (levelbased curve clipped by grid power budget)
- mpc.md — Tier 3 (optimisation + forecast; block diagram +
scenario time-series instead of a fixed curve)
- modes/README.md — updated with the three-tier classification table
and diagram-type-per-tier guidance

# Power-based mode — *Tier 2 template*
|
||||
|
||||
> **Status — not yet implemented.** Placeholder. This page documents the intended shape of a grid-aware / netcongestion-aware station.
|
||||
|
||||
## At a glance
|
||||
|
||||
| Item | Value |
|
||||
|---|---|
|
||||
| Tier | 2 — parameterised transfer function |
|
||||
| Signal driving demand | basin level (primary), **max-power budget** (clip) |
|
||||
| Secondary inputs | measured pump power, live grid-price / peak-hours signal |
|
||||
| Output | demand 0–100 % clipped so `Σ pump power ≤ maxPowerKW(t)` |
|
||||
| Thresholds adjusted at runtime? | `maxPowerKW(t)` yes — level thresholds no |
|
||||
| Use when | Grid has peak-hour tariffs or net-congestion caps |
|
||||
|
||||
## Diagram — the levelbased curve with a moving clip ceiling
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
demand % ← dashed line: levelbased curve
|
||||
100 ┤ ╱ ─────── ← solid: clip at powerBudget(t)
|
||||
│ ╱ clip lowers
|
||||
│ ╱ during grid peak
|
||||
│ ╱ ─────────
|
||||
│ ╱ ╱
|
||||

||||
│ ╱ ╱
|

0 ┼────────●───────●─────────────────────► level
|
||||
startLevel maxLevel
|
||||
|
||||
↑ the family of curves:
|
||||
clip=100% (grid idle),
|
||||
clip=70% (shoulder),
|
||||
clip=40% (peak).
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
The *shape* stays levelbased; the *ceiling* drops when the grid is strained. That's the Tier-2 signature: same input axis, parameter shifts the curve.
|
||||
|
||||
## Inputs
|
||||
|
||||
| Signal | Where from | Role |
|
||||
|---|---|---|
|
||||
| current level | as in levelbased | primary input |
|
||||
| `config.control.powerBased.maxPowerKW` | editor, static | hard cap on station power |
|
||||
| `config.control.powerBased.powerControlMode` | `limit` / `optimize` | whether to just clip or to schedule |
|
||||
| live grid signal (future) | external topic or forecast | modulates the cap over time |
|
||||
| measured pump power | `power.measured.*` from children | real-time feedback against the cap |
|
||||
|
||||
## Threshold policy
|
||||
|
||||
Level thresholds (`minLevel`, `startLevel`, `maxLevel`) are **identical to levelbased** — they define the shape of the underlying curve. What's new is a runtime-varying ceiling `demandCap(t)` derived from the power budget.
|
||||
|
||||
`demandCap(t) = 100 × (maxPowerKW(t) / nominalStationPowerAtFull)` — where `maxPowerKW(t)` may come from config (static `limit` mode) or an external grid-price feed (dynamic).
|
||||
|
||||
## Demand formula
|
||||
|
||||
```text
|
||||
rawDemand = levelbasedDemand(level) # the underlying Tier-1 curve
|
||||
demandCap = min(100, 100 × maxPowerKW(t) / nominalStationPower)
|
||||
demand = min(rawDemand, demandCap)
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
When `demandCap < rawDemand`, the mode sacrifices drainage rate to stay within power budget. Level may rise — the overfill safety layer still applies as the last line of defence.
|
||||
|
||||
## Edge cases
|
||||
|
||||
- **Peak hour with rising level.** demandCap drops faster than level rises → demand gets clipped; level approaches `overflowLevel`. If overfill safety trips, it overrides the clip (safety wins).
|
||||
- **Power signal dropout.** Fall back to static `maxPowerKW` from config; log warning.
|
||||
- **Grid exit from peak while basin is nearly full.** demandCap jumps back to 100; PID is memoryless so demand rises in one tick to match rawDemand.
|
||||
- **Measured vs predicted pump power.** Cap is enforced on predicted (decisions are made before the pump responds). Reconcile against measured for logging/diagnostics.
