| Abstract: | The object-oriented formulation of steady-state initialization for models of closed thermo-hydraulic systems yields singular problems, due to system-wide structural issues. The paper proposes how to solve this problem in an object-oriented fashion, by means of an additional component that helps to uniquely determine the initial conditions of the system. A method based on the analysis of the null space of the Jacobian of the initialization problem and on suitable annotations is also proposed to provide the end user with meaningful, high-level, context-relevant diagnostic messages, in case the singular problem arises. This diagnostic method can also be applied to other cases, such as closed systems with constant density fluid and electrical circuits lacking a ground connection. |
