Abstract

OSMOSE is a platform for the study and design of complex integrated energy systems. The software is developed in the Laboratory for Industrial Energy Systems (LENI) in the Ecole Polytechnique Fédérale de Lausanne (EPFL), Lausanne, Switzerland. The project is motivated by the need of a fexible and performant research tool to study and design energy systems. In this perspective, the general scope of the software is to help the user to develop and compute technology models that combine (a) thermodynamic computations, (b) power and energy integration as well as (c) economic or environomic aspects. OSMOSE , exploits the models by performing (a) sensitivity analysis, (b) optimization and (c) data analysis. The present document is a complete user guide to OSMOSE. In addition, elements of software structure and architecture are exposed. This makes therefore the document useful as an introduction for future developers in the project.

Energy system

An energy system is a system primarily designed to supply energy-services to end-users. The intent behind energy systems is to minimise energy losses to a negligible level, as well as to ensure the efficient use of energy. The IPCC Fifth Assessment Report defines an energy system as "all components related to the production, conversion, delivery, and use of energy". The first two definitions allow for demand-side measures, including daylighting, retrofitted building insulation, and passive solar building design, as well as socio-economic factors, such as aspects of energy demand management and remote work, while the third does not.

User interface design

User interface (UI) design or user interface engineering is the design of user interfaces for machines and software, such as computers, home appliances, mobile devices, and other electronic devices, with the focus on maximizing usability and the user experience. In computer or software design, user interface (UI) design primarily focuses on information architecture. It is the process of building interfaces that clearly communicates to the user what's important. UI design refers to graphical user interfaces and other forms of interface design.

Efficient energy use

Efficient energy use, sometimes simply called energy efficiency, is the process of reducing the amount of energy required to provide products and services. For example, insulating a building allows it to use less heating and cooling energy to achieve and maintain a thermal comfort. Installing light-emitting diode bulbs, fluorescent lighting, or natural skylight windows reduces the amount of energy required to attain the same level of illumination compared to using traditional incandescent light bulbs.
