trano-simulate

Simulate Modelica models with OpenModelica, in a Docker container of the OpenModelica image or with the omc of your machine, and report their results.

It is the simulation backend of trano, and does not depend on it: a model is the name and the Modelica text of a package whose top model is building.

from pathlib import Path

from trano_simulate import ModelPackage, SimulationOptions, run_simulation

package = ModelPackage(name="Decay", source=Path("decay.mo").read_text())
result = run_simulation(Path("run"), package, options=SimulationOptions(end_time=3600), runtime="docker")
result.success, result.result_path, result.error_kind, result.error_message

runtime="docker" needs Docker; runtime="local" needs OpenModelica's omc on the PATH, with the Modelica libraries installed (trano-install-libraries).

Reports

A report needs two files: the description of the model, which trano writes next to the model it generates (<name>.description.json: its spaces, constructions and systems, and the result variables to plot), and the result file of the simulation.

from trano_simulate.reporting import ModelDocumentation, to_docx, to_html_reporting

documentation = ModelDocumentation.from_files(Path("house.description.json"), Path("run/results/house.building_res.mat"))
Path("house.html").write_text(to_html_reporting(documentation))
to_docx(documentation, Path("house.docx"))
