Easy5 simplifies the construction and analysis of such systems with a graphical, schematic-based application. A comprehensive set of pre-packaged components, stored in application-specific libraries, simplify the assembly of a representative model and facilitate quick and accurate system simulation. Engineers work within a familiar schematic drawing paradigm to add and specify data connections between components in an intuitive, simple-to-use, multi-level hierarchical modeling environment.
Easy5 was developed and designed by engineers to efficiently solve real-world, industrial problems. For over forty years, through continuous improvement, Easy5 has remained the simulation tool of choice for many complex and difficult systems.
MSC Easy5 2024.1 Release Highlights
Steady-State Analysis in Easy5-Generated Cosimulation Functional Mockup Units (FMU)
Steady-state analyses can now be run within Easy5-generated cosimulation FMUs, and the resulting FMU state saved for future use. A new fixed parameter, “Easy5AnalysisType” can be set to
- Run simulation only (default, previously existing capability). Optionally, a previously saved FMU initial state may be specified, and the end-point FMU state may be saved.
- Run steady-state analysis during initialization followed by simulation. If the steady-state analysis converges, the simulation will start from the steady-state result.
- Run only steady-state analysis, optionally saving the FMU state for future use. For this option, run only the FMU instantiation and initialization.
Three-Mass Components
New components for modeling 3-mass dynamics in one spatial dimension have been added to the Thermal Hydraulics library, allowing for explicit modeling of poppets and spools containing three interdependent moving masses.
