How to simulate a model multiple times with different parameter values
Here are 2 examples of how you can simulate a model multiple times using different parameters values in Dymola, also referred to as batch running, and often used to run sensitivity sweeps. For the purpose of these examples a simple test model, Test1.mo, will be used. The Modelica text for Test1 is shown below; parameter [...]

Resizing the Diagram layer
Resizing the Diagram layer By increasing the size of the diagram layer we gain more space to layout graphical model diagrams. To change the size of the diagram follow these steps: Select the class whose diagram layer you wish to resize by double clicking on it in the package browser In Modelling mode, select Attributes [...]

How to restart a simulation from a given state
How to restart a simulation from a given state Often it is useful to be able to repeatedly restart a simulation from a given state. This is useful when we have a model that needs to simulate for a significant amount of time to reach a stable operating point from which we are interested in [...]

Changing the default font size in Dymola
To change the default font size in Dymola Locate the dymodraw.ini file in your Dymola installation insert directory Open dymodraw.ini in note pad or similar editor and change/add the string: Dymola5basefontsize 12 for example for font size = 12 This will affect the font size in menus and windows within Dymola from the moment Dymola [...]
