RenewNet Foundry is a project to provide simulation building blocks for the renewable energy industry.
RenewNet Foundry is a repository for an integrated set of simulation components for system simulation of wind, wave and tidal energy systems.
Features:
Wave
--------
* Advanced Matlab interface to NEMOH hydrodynamic solver
* Advanced wave energy simulation tool derived from WECSim, but with no requirement for Simulink or Simscape Multibody (uses MBDyn instead)
* Generic device models for testing
Electrical Machines
-------
* Advanced design and simulation tools for electrical machines
* Parameterised models of many types of both rotary and linear generators and motors
General Features
-------
* Matlab scripts and functions for simulation and analysis of renewable power systems
* Matlab code also compatible with Octave, the free alternative to Matlab as much as possible
* An extensible optimisation framework to perform system optimisation
* Integrated distributed computing tools for batch runs and optimisation
