IDAES Examples
This Git repository contains the example notebooks and scripts for the IDAES-PSE code. Some examples are Jupyter Notebooks, and some are Python scripts.
The examples can be viewed online at this page.
If you are a developer who wants to add a new example to this repository, please refer to the README-developer.md in this directory for instructions.
Install
First, you need to download and install the examples locally, on your own computer. Instructions for doing this are in the install instructions in the main IDAES-PSE toolkit documentation -- under the "Generic install" section. That page also contains a link to more detailed help on the options for choosing a custom installation directory.
Run
Once you have installed the examples you will find in the download directory a number of Python scripts and Jupyter Notebooks that you can run.
Running Python scripts
To run the Python scripts, navigate to the directory in which they are held and either use a command or graphical Python interface (see this README-developer).
Running Jupyter Notebooks
Many of the examples are Jupyter Notebooks. To help navigate them, there is an index with short descriptions at the top-level in a notebook "notebook_index.ipynb". To use this, run:
jupyter notebook notebook_index.ipynb
or open the file from the desktop with the Jupyter program by double-clicking.
You can also, of course, browse to specific notebooks and open them directly, in the same manner described above.
