| 1 | +# Open and Simulate in Dymola |
| 2 | + |
| 3 | +The output files from the translation are located in the <>output' folder can be opened in any Modelica IDE. [Dymola](https://dymola.com/) will be used for this example. |
| 4 | + |
| 5 | + |
| 6 | +## Before you start |
| 7 | + |
| 8 | +Make sure that: |
| 9 | +- You have cloned the [repository](https://github.com/alSETLab/XSLTConferencePaper/). |
| 10 | +- Install [Dymola](https://discover.3ds.com/free-trial-version-of-dymola-for-windows). To complete the steps below successfully you will need to have a license, you can get one [here](https://www.claytex.com/about-us/contact-us/). |
| 11 | +- Download the OpenIPSL library version 3.0.1 from this [link](https://github.com/OpenIPSL/OpenIPSL/releases/tag/v3.0.1). Uncrompress the .zip file and place it in a folder where you have read/write rights, e.g., <code>./Documents/Dymola/</code> |
| 12 | + |
| 13 | +## Load and ``Check'' the Model |
| 14 | + |
| 15 | +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. |
| 16 | + |
| 17 | +1. Open Dymola |
| 18 | + |
| 19 | + ```bash |
| 20 | + Start -> All apps -> Dymola 2024x |
| 21 | + ``` |
| 22 | + |
| 23 | +2. Load the OpenIPSL library |
| 24 | + |
| 25 | + ```bash |
| 26 | + File -> Open -> Load... |
| 27 | + ``` |
| 28 | +  |
| 29 | + |
| 30 | + Browse to the location where you have saved OpenIPSL. Selecte the <code>package.mo</code>, from <code> ./YourFolderWithOpenIPSL/OpenIPSL/package.mo </code> file and click on <code>Open</code>. |
| 31 | + |
| 32 | +  |
| 33 | + |
| 34 | + |
| 35 | +3. Load the <code>ieee14.mo</code> file |
| 36 | + ```bash |
| 37 | + File -> Open -> Load... |
| 38 | + Find 'ieee14.mo' in the 'XSLTConferencePaper/output' folder. |
| 39 | + ``` |
| 40 | + |
| 41 | +4. Locate the <code>ieee14_package</code> under the 'Projects Browser' of Dymola. Tip it over and double-click 'ieee14'. |
| 42 | +  |
| 43 | + |
| 44 | +5. Click on the 'Graphics' tab of Dymola, then click the 'Check' button, which should show the message below: |
| 45 | + |
| 46 | +  |
| 47 | + |
| 48 | +## Simulate |
| 49 | +Having passed the check, you can now attempt to simulate the model. |
| 50 | + |
| 51 | +1. Navigate to the 'Projects Browser' of Dymola, right click on the <code>ieee14</code> model and select 'Simulation Model' |
| 52 | +  |
| 53 | + |
| 54 | +2. Click on the 'Simulation' tab of Dymola, and click on the 'Simulate' icon. |
| 55 | +  |
| 56 | + |
| 57 | +3. After the simulation is completed, select a few simulation outputs as shown below. Note that the fault applied results in an unstable system! |
| 58 | +  |
| 59 | + |
| 60 | +Have fun playing around with the model! |
