Getting_Started

Literature for users

The following resources are useful for new users to get started:

• T. L. Bergman, A. S. Lavine, F. P. Incropera, and D. P. Dewitt, "Fundamentals of Heat and Mass Transfer", John Wiley & Sons, illustrated edition, 2011.
• P. Domschke, B. Hiller, J. Lang, V. Mehrmann, R. Morandin, and C. Tischendorf, "Gas network modeling: An overview", Preprint, Collaborative Research Center TRR 154, 2021.

Although the Modelica Language Tutorial is for an older version (Modelica 1.4), it is still instructive and relevant to understand the concepts of the language.

Download

It is possible to download the full library from the Github repository using:

• To clone the repository for the first time run: git clone --recurse-submodules https://github.com/RSE-TGM/multienergysystem.git
• If you have already cloned the repository, run: git submodule update --init --recursive
• The default branch of MES Library is the main branch. This means that after cloning the repository, you always checked out the main branch.

Running the first simulation

To start using Modelica, run some of the example models of the MES Library. Make variations in these examples by changing values of model parameters or by replacing existing component models by new ones. The example models can be found in the packages Test.Components.

Software requirements

The MES Library is developed using Dymola 2024x Refresh 1, but most of the models developed can be used also using OpenModelica.
