# Simulation Setup (+2)

## Simulation Setup


1. **Consistent naming** - Use same object names across configurations
2. **Same analysis period** - Compare equivalent simulation lengths
3. **Same environmental conditions** - Unless comparing sensitivity
4. **Documented changes** - Track what differs between configurations


## Comparison Approach


1. **Baseline first** - Establish reference configuration
2. **One change at a time** - For sensitivity studies
3. **Statistical significance** - Consider variability
4. **Normalization** - Compare percentage changes when scales differ


## Reporting


1. **Clear labels** - Identify each configuration
2. **Key metrics** - Focus on design-critical values
3. **Visualization** - Use charts for patterns
4. **Conclusions** - State design implications
