Change Log

[0.9.0] - 2023-12-22

  • [ADDED] multiple creation of heat exchanger

  • [ADDED] support Python 3.11 (now included in test pipeline)

  • [ADDED] result tables can be assembled modularly

  • [CHANGED] dropped support for Python 3.7 (no longer included in test pipeline)

  • [CHANGED] dynamic creation of lookups for getting pit as pandas tables

  • [CHANGED] components can have their own internal arrays for specific calculations (e.g. for compressor pressure ratio), so that the pit does not need to include such component specific entries

  • [CHANGED] .readthedocs.yml due to deprecation

  • [CHANGED] changing from setuptools flat-layout into src-layout

  • [CHANGED] calculate thermal derivative globally, adaptions before/after can be done component-wise

  • [ADDED] new component mass_storage and tutorial how to use it

  • [ADDED] a stanet converter has been added incl. a stanet converter documentation

  • [ADDED] in the course of the stanet converter release a component called valve-pipe was introduced. It is a combination of a valve and a pipe

  • [CHANGED] by default p and t are set to None in case of ext grids. Based on the type selected, p and t must be adapted accordingly. If set to ‘auto’, based on the given p and t values, the type is set

  • [CHANGED] ‘auto’ can also be set for type in case of circulation pumps. The behavior is the same as in case of ext grids

  • [CHANGED] authors list adapted

  • [CHANGED] as of now, not one but two example nets (water and gas) will be created for the convert_format test (ensure backward compatibility when loading nets from jsons)
