Abstract
In the CORPOELEC Guayana Regional Office, there is a need to update the software that simulates the low Caroni Hydroelectric Plants, in order to include the Tocoma Plant, update the programming language to the free software philosophy and change it to the object-oriented programming paradigm. The new software will be designed in Python 2.7.12 with Anaconda 4.2.0 using for the desing of the Tkinter Interface. The software will have the ability to make medium and long-term simulations, considering the contributions, the initial level of the Guri reservoir, the electric demand and the simulation period. Besides, the entry into operation of the Tocoma generating units. In the results it was obtained: The Guri Reservoir future level, Energy deficit, turbocharged flows, turbinated and discharged by spillway flows, among other data needed to make planning and decision-making in the National Electrical System.
Keywords: Hydroelectric, reservoir, Guri, flow rates, turbine, generation, level, volume.
