DC-DC converter's simulator

Simulator offers GUI for the transient simulation of PWM DC-DC converters. Simulation can be done in open loop, with PID controller applied or with control using nonlinear model predictive control (NMPC) concepts.

Usage of the simulator and its design are described in the User manual.

Install instructions

Program is written in Python 3.6 programming language using CASADI package. For MPC simulator uses NMPC-codegen, which is integrated inside this simulator.

For the usage of the simulator, it is necessary to have installed: - Casadi version >= 3.2 and < 3.5 - Python packages: matplotlib, sympy, numpy, PyQt5 - Gcc GNU compiler

Windows users might use MSYS2: https://www.msys2.org/ and install the necessary using following commands.

Open msys2.exe and type: pacman -Syu to update MSYS2

Close the window and open it again and type: pacman -Sy pacman (to update the package database) pacman -S mingw-w64-x86_64-toolchain (for a toolchain) pacman -S make (to install make)

Add folders <MSYS2 root>/mingw64/bin and <MSYS2 root>/usr/bin to path.

Linux users have this installed.

  • Cmake: https://cmake.org/

More informtion about installation can be found on the page Install.
