This is the development site for the dhcSim Modelica Library and its user guide.
The dhcSim library is a free open-source library with basic models to allow dynamic sumlation of complex district heating and cooling (DHC) networks. It was developed to ease the modeling of complex DHC systems from two level concepts (supply and return) up to a large number of parallel network levels. This library was developed supplementary to the Modelica Buildings Library 8.0.0 and the Modelica Standard Library. The dhcSim aims to provide a simple and clear model structure that is user-friendly and applicable to many custom network concepts. This library can be used for smaller as well as significantly larger DHC networks.
The dhcSim is available under the terms of the BSD 3-Clause License. A copy of the license is available at dhcSim/LICENSE.md.
