Lesson plan
EcosimPro
EcosimPro is a simulation tool developed by Empresarios Agrupados A.I.E for modelling simple and complex physical processes that can be expressed in terms of Differential algebraic equations or Ordinary differential equations and Discrete event simulation. The application runs on the various Microsoft Windows platforms and uses its own graphic environment for model design. The modelling of physical components is based on the EcosimPro language (EL) which is very similar to other conventional Object-oriented programming languages but is powerful enough to model continuous and discrete processes. This tool employs a set of libraries containing various types of components (mechanical, electrical, pneumatic, hydraulic, etc.) that can be reused to model any type of system. It is used within ESA for propulsion systems analysis and is the recommended ESA analysis tool for ECLS systems.
