Dymola 2014 FD01 Release Notes 37
• A wide range of working fluids.
• Two- and one-phase fluid flow with a choice of different heat transfer and pressure loss
correlations that also covers phase change.
• Ready-to use component models with example parameterization as well as interfaces and
templates for user-specific modifications.
• System examples that demonstrate the use of the library.
Limitations in this release:
• Some component models for organic rankine systems, namely pumps and expanders, are
still missing and planned to be included in the next version.
• Air is currently the only available gas in heat exchangers. Additional gaseous fluids will
be included in future releases.
• Heat exchangers are limited to simple but generic types. Detailed models based on
geometry data, which also accept inhomogeneous air inlet distributions, are under
development in the Heat Exchanger Library with the purpose to make them compatible
with the Vapor Cycle Library.
The library demands a license.
3.8 Updated libraries
All libraries are compliant with Modelica Standard Library 3.2.1. If this is the only new
feature in a library below, it is noted in brackets.
3.8.1 Modelica Standard Library (MSL)
A minor version, 3.2.1, has been released, with major emphasis on quality improvement and
tool compatibility. The improvements include:
• More efficient handling of tables, including differentiated table outputs, support for new
binary Matlab formats, and new options for parameter Smoothness and Extrapolation.
• Icons redesign.
• 60 models and blocks and 90 functions newly included.
Version 3.2.1 is backward compatible to version 3.2, that is, models developed with version
3.0, 3.0.1, 3.1, or 3.2 will work without any changes with version 3.2.1.
The Dymola 2014 FD01 distribution contains two versions of Modelica Standard Library
(MSL):
• Version 3.2.1, released 2013-08-14 (build 2).
• Version 3.2, released in October, 2010 (build 9).
MSL 3.2.1 is default in Dymola 2014 FD01. If the user wants to use MSL 3.2 this can be
selected using the command
