This package provides an open toolbox for district heating and cooling network optimization and simulation models.

The aim of DHNx is to provide a toolbox for building models of district heating/cooling systems.

If you have a working Python3 environment, use pypi to install the latest DHNx version:

pip install dhnx

Install the developer version of DHNx by cloning DHNx to your computer and running

pip install -e <path to DHNx>

in your virtualenv.

Check out the examples to get started.

The documentation (work in progress) can be found here https://dhnx.readthedocs.io/en/latest/. To build the docs locally using sphinx-build run the following in a terminal.

sphinx-build docs <build-dir>

Everybody is welcome to contribute to the development of DHNx. The developer guidelines of oemof are in most parts equally applicable to DHNx.

We use the zenodo project to get a DOI for each version. Search zenodo for the right citation of your DHNx version.

If you want to refer specifically to the district heating network optimization part of DHNx, you can also cite https://doi.org/10.5278/ijsepm.6248.
