 +**D2O** - Heavy water

 +**EU** - Enriched Uranium 
 + 
 +**ftef** - coal, heavyOil, lightOil, diesel, petroleumCoke,​ naturalGas, biomass 
 + 
 +**maximum number of iterations (in elec gen node)** - This is the maximum number of iteration that the simulator will be allowed to run to estimate how much capacity must be put in place to deliver the final demand for electricity as well as any electricity required to produce heavy water, enriched uranium and for the sequestration fof CO2. 
 + 
 +**RPP** - stands for refined petroleum products - esentially diesel, light and heavy fuel oil.

 +**rppft** - LPG, stillGas, motorGasoline,​ keroseneAndStoveOil,​ diesel_fuel_oil,​ light_fuel_oil,​heavy_fuel_oil,​ petroleum_coke,​ aviation_gasoline,​ aviation_turbo_fuel

 +**Database model** - a model (or //​framework//​) which runs over an observed historical period, usually with the purpose of assembling an internally-consistent historical database. Its conceptual purpose can be the same of a //​calibrator//​ framework except that a database model is not linked to a counterpart //​simulator//​ framework.
  
 **Dependency Structure** - represents the flows of information among the calculators of a framework and takes the form of an acyclic graph. The computational sequence of calculators may be inferred from the dependency structure. **Dependency Structure** - represents the flows of information among the calculators of a framework and takes the form of an acyclic graph.
