Solar energy system optimization with Scilab and Optimus
In this free webinar you will see how process integration and multiobjective optimization helped increase the efficiency and minimize the cost of a solar energy system.
Project engineers used the open-source software Scilab for modeling the engineering problem and calculating the efficiency of the solar energy system, whereas Excel served as a cost calculator. In Optimus, they flexibly integrated Scilab and Excel into a single, automated optimization workflow.
