init(sid: str, scenario_config: dict, time_resolution: int = 1) → dict

Initializes parameters for an object of the TES:Sim class.

Parameters:

  • sid (str) – Id of the created instance of the TES simulator (e.g. TESSim-0)

  • scenario_config (dict) – scenario configuration data, like resolution or step size.

  • time_resolution (int) – Time resolution of current mosaik scenario.

Returns:

meta description of the simulator

Return type:

dict

create(num: int, model_type: str, init_vals: dict) → dict

Creates instances of the eELib TES model.

Parameters:

  • num (int) – Number of TES models to be created

  • model_type (str) – Description of the created TES instance

  • init_vals (dict) – Dict (length=num) with initial values for each TES model

Raises:

ValueError – If entity ID is already existing

Returns:

return created entities

Return type:

dict

get_entity_by_id(entity_id: str) → eelib.core.devices.tes.tes_model.TES

Searches for a requested entity id and gives back the entity model.

Parameters:

entity_id (str) – id of the entity to be searched for

Returns:

entity model if found, None otherwise

Return type:

tes_model.TES

step(time: int, inputs: dict, max_advance: int) → int

Performs simulation step calling the eELib TES model. Core function of mosaik.

Parameters:

  • time (int) – current simulation time (given by mosaik)

  • inputs (dict, optional) – allocation of return values to specific models

  • max_advance (int, optional) – simulation time until the simulator can safely advance it’s internal time without causing any causality errors.

Raises:

  • ValueError – Error if more than one set value is tried to be given to entity

  • TypeError – if value_dict containing set values has an unknown format

Returns:

next timestep (when orchestrator calls again)

Return type:

int

get_data(outputs: dict) → dict

Gets the data for the next concatenated model. Core function of mosaik.

Parameters:

outputs (dict) – Dictionary with data outputs from each TES model

Raises:

ValueError – Error if attribute not in model metadata

Returns:

Dictionary with simulation outputs

Return type:

dict
