Introduction to Simulis components utilization
Objectives
This training aims at introducing the different elements of the Simulis suite, in particular of Simulis Thermodynamics, and their utilization in Excel or MATLAB environments.

By the end of the session, trainees will have a sound understanding of the concepts that will make the basis of tomorrow's software and will know how to use the most important functions of Simulis components, create Excel spreadsheets and MATLAB toolboxes.
