Extends from Modelica.Icons.ReleaseNotes.

Information

Major changes compared to v0.2.0 are:

  • Added code for checking conservation of energy
  • Added options for linear/non-linear radiative heat exchange and convection for exterior and interior faces of walls and floors/ceilings. Respective correlations have been changed.
  • Improved overall efficiency and reduced warnings.
  • The emissivity of window coatings must now be specified as a property of the solid (glass sheet) and not as a property of the gas between the glass sheets. This is only relevant if you create your own glazing.
  • Merged Annex 60 library up to commit d7749e3
  • Expanded unit tests
  • Improved implementation of Koschenz's model for TABS and added an option to discretize TABS sections.
  • Added new building shade components.
  • Removed inefficient code that would lead to numerical Jacobians in the grid.
  • Added new AC and DC electrical models.
