Quickstart Guide - Dymola

While using these models would require some familiarity with Modelica and Dymola, the packages have been setup so that users without such experience can run some of the default simulations and linearization examples. In the instructions below, we illustrate how to load the OpenIPSL library and the Example1 & Example2 packages:

  1. Download OpenIPSL, here. You can clone it with GIT by using a8c6758. Alternatively, you can download the *.zip file from the release page here.
  2. Download the files of this repository by cloning with GIT. Alternatively, you can click here to download the *.zip file.
  3. If you have cloned both OpenIPSL's and this repository, navigate to the location where it is stored them. If you have downloaded the *.zip file, uncompress it in a directory to which you have read/write rights, e.g. C:\Users\myUserName\Documents\Dymola. You should now have two directories, one called OpenIPSL-3.0.1 and the other CCTA-OpenIPSL-1.0.x, as shown below. Note that x denotes the version of the release of this repository. Uncompress the *.zip files
  4. Launch Dymola 2024X and go to File > Open > Load, and navigate the folder C:\Users\myUserName\Documents\Dymola\OpenIPSL-3.0.1\OpenIPSL-3.0.1\OpenIPSL\, select the file package.mo and click on Open Dymola Load Select package.mo from the directory This will load OpenIPSL on Dymola's Projects browser as shown below: OpenIPSL in Dymola
  5. Repeat step 4, but instead, navigate to the directory C:\Users\myUserName\Documents\Dymola\CCTA-OpenIPSL-1.0.x\Example1, select the file package.mo and click on Open. This will load the package, Example1 in Dymola's Projects browser as shown below. OpenIPSL in Dymola
  6. Repeat step 5, but instead, C:\Users\myUserName\Documents\Dymola\CCTA-OpenIPSL-1.0.x\Example2, select the file package.mo and click on Open. This will load the package, Example2 in Dymola's Projects browser as shown below. OpenIPSL in Dymola
  7. You have now loaded the two packages from this repository in Dymola. You can now click on Example1 > Readme or Example2 > Readme and follow the instructions on how to run some default examples.
    • For example, to reproduce the comparisons between the linear and nonlinear model response of Example 1 as shown in Fig. 6 of Reference 1, follow the instructions here
  8. Explore all other examples in the documentation!
    • Documentation for Example 1 can be found here
    • Documentation for Example 2 can be found here
