Steady-state initialization of object-oriented thermo-fluid models by homotopy methods
نویسندگان
چکیده
The steady-state initialization of large object-oriented thermo-hydraulic networks is a difficult problem, because of the sensitivity of the convergence to the initial guesses of the iteration variables. This paper proposes an approach to this problem based on homotopy transformation, detailing specific criteria for model simplifications in this physical domain. The approach is successfully demonstrated on large power plant test cases, having several hundreds of iteration variables.

Standardization of Thermo-Fluid Modeling in Modelica.Fluid
This article discusses the Modelica.Fluid library that has been included in the Modelica Standard Library 3.1. Modelica.Fluid provides interfaces and basic components for the device-oriented modeling of onedimensional thermo-fluid flow in networks containing vessels, pipes, fluid machines, valves and fittings. A unique feature of Modelica.Fluid is that the component equations and the media mode...
متن کاملOverdetermined Steady-State Initialization Problems in Object-Oriented Fluid System Models
The formulation of steady-state initialization problems for fluid systems is a non-trivial task. If steady-state equations are specified at the component level, the corresponding system of initial equations at the system level might be overdetermined, if index reduction eliminates some states. On the other hand, steady-state equations are not sufficient to uniquely identify one equilibrium stat...
متن کاملModeling and Evaluation of Stochastic Discrete-Event Systems with RayLang Formalism
In recent years, formal methods have been used as an important tool for performance evaluation and verification of a wide range of systems. In the view points of engineers and practitioners, however, there are still some major difficulties in using formal methods. In this paper, we introduce a new formal modeling language to fill the gaps between object-oriented programming languages (OOPLs) us...
