Support for Dymola in the Modeling and Simulation of Physical Systems with Distributed Parameters

Keywords

Abstract

This paper introduces a new Modelica library for modeling and simulation of systems with distributed parameters in one space dimension. The resulting partial differential equations of either the parabolic or hyperbolic types are being converted to sets of ordinary differential equations using either the method of lines or the finite volume approach. Some simple examples serve to document the utilization of the new library.
