Open and Simulate in Dymola

Before you start

Make sure that:

• You have cloned the repository.

• Install Dymola. To complete the steps below successfully you will need to have a license, you can get one here.

• Download the OpenIPSL library version 3.0.1 from this link. Uncrompress the .zip file and place it in a folder where you have read/write rights, e.g., ./Documents/Dymola/

Load and ``Check'' the Model

Before simulating a Modelica model, it is necessary to determine if the model is sytactically and sematically valid. This is carried out below for a test model.

1. Open Dymola

   Start -> All apps -> Dymola 2024x

2. Load the OpenIPSL library

   File -> Open -> Load...

   

   Browse to the location where you have saved OpenIPSL. Selecte the package.mo, from ./YourFolderWithOpenIPSL/OpenIPSL/package.mo file and click on Open.

   

3. Load the ieee14.mo file

   File -> Open -> Load... Find 'ieee14.mo' in the 'XSLTConferencePaper/output' folder.

4. Locate the ieee14_package under the 'Projects Browser' of Dymola. Tip it over and double-click 'ieee14'.

   

5. Click on the 'Graphics' tab of Dymola, then click the 'Check' button, which should show the message below:

   

Simulate

Having passed the check, you can now attempt to simulate the model.

1. Navigate to the 'Projects Browser' of Dymola, right click on the ieee14 model and select 'Simulation Model'

   

2. Click on the 'Simulation' tab of Dymola, and click on the 'Simulate' icon.

   

3. After the simulation is completed, select a few simulation outputs as shown below. Note that the fault applied results in an unstable system!

   

Have fun playing around with the model!
