FMPy

FMPy is a free Python library to simulate Functional Mock-up Units (FMUs) that...

  • supports FMI 1.0 and 2.0
  • supports Co-Simulation and Model Exchange
  • runs on Windows, Linux and macOS
  • has a graphical user interface
  • compiles source code FMUs

Installation

Several options are available:

  • Install with conda: conda install -c conda-forge fmpy
  • Install with from PyPI: python -m pip install fmpy[complete]
  • Install the latest development version directly from GitHub: python -m pip install https://github.com/CATIA-Systems/FMPy/archive/develop.zip

If you don't have Python on your machine you can install Anaconda Python.

Start the Graphical User Interface

You can start the FMPy GUI with python -m fmpy.gui

FMPy GUI

Simulate an FMU in Python

To follow this example download Rectifier.fmu for your platform by clicking on the respective link: Linux, macOS, Windows (32-bit), Windows (64-bit). Change to the folder where you've saved the FMU and open a Python prompt.

>>> from fmpy import *
>>> fmu = 'Rectifier.fmu'
>>> dump(fmu)  # get information

Simulate an FMU on the command line

To get information about an FMU directly from the command line change to the folder where you've saved the FMU and enter

fmpy info Rectifier.fmu

Simulate the FMU and plot the results

fmpy simulate Rectifier.fmu --show-plot

Get more information about the available options

fmpy --help

Advanced Usage

To learn more about how to use FMPy in you own scripts take a look at the coupled_clutches.py, custom_input.py and parameter_variation.py examples.
