Abstract

AbstractVirtual prototyping plays an ever increasing role in the engineering disciplines. Nowadays, engineers can rely on powerful tools like object oriented modeling languages, e.g., Modelica. Models written in this language can be simulated by open source software as well as commercial tools. The advantage of this approach is that the engineers can concentrate themselves on modeling, whereas the numerical intricacies of the simulation are handled by the software. On the other hand the simulations are usually slower than implementations which are parallelized and optimized manually. This can lead to computation times which are infeasible in practice, e.g., when a real time simulation is necessary for a hardware‐in‐the‐loop simulation.In this contribution we are concerned with speeding up such automated simulations by parallelization (on desktop hardware as well as HPC systems). We examine the parallelism across the system approaches. Additionally, the influence of the problem formulation on the simulation time is discussed. The implemented methods are demonstrated on engineering examples. (© 2015 Wiley‐VCH Verlag GmbH & Co. KGaA, Weinheim)
