Industrial application of optimization with Modelica and Optimica us- ing intelligent Python scripting

This paper shows how different kinds of optimization related task such as offline optimization or optimal control are solved using a combination of Modelica, Optimica, JModelica.org and Python. The application examples presented in this paper are all real industrial applications in the field of Combined Cycle Power Plants. Therefore different workflows have to be combined to solve the underlying task. This paper shows that these workflows can be conveniently connected using Python.
