2. Download¶
2.1. Software¶
2.1.1. Official releases¶
To download SOEP, go to https://simulationresearch.lbl.gov/modelica/download.html.
OpenModelica users can also install the Modelica Buildings Library using the OMEdit package manager.
Either approach installs all required binaries.
2.1.2. Development version¶
The development version for Linux 64 bit and Windows 64 can be downloaded from github.
To download all required dependencies, Git Large File Storage is required. See git-lfs installation instructions.
If Git Large File System is installed, Spawn can be downloaded as
git clone git@github.com:lbl-srg/modelica-buildings.git
This will download the development version which has been tested with OpenModelica, OPTIMICA and Dymola.
Either OpenModelica, OPTIMICA or Dymola needs to be installed.
You can then simulate models with OPTIMICA by running
cd modelica-buildings
jm_ipython.sh jmodelica.py Buildings.ThermalZones.EnergyPlus.Examples.SingleFamilyHouse.AirHeating
The output file can be read with https://simulationresearch.lbl.gov/modelica/buildingspy/ or Dymola.
For more information, see also the user guide in the Modelica Buildings Library at Buildings.ThermalZones.EnergyPlus_9_6_0.
