The development of this library has been a collaborative effort
and many have contributed.
- The previous design of this library (until beginning of 2008) was based on the paper
Elmqvist H., Tummescheit H., and Otter M.:
Object-Oriented Modeling of Thermo-Fluid Systems.
Modelica 2003 Conference, Linköping, Sweden, pp. 269-286, Nov. 3-4, 2003.
This design has been partly changed, especially by the introduction of the streams
concept.
- The Fluid library development was organized in 2002-2004 by Martin
Otter, since 2004 it is organized by Francesco Casella, and
since 2008 it is organized jointly by Francesco Casella and Rüdiger Franke.
- Francesco Casella included several components of his ThermoPower
library with some rewriting. The stream connector concept used in Modelica.Fluid is
based on a similar concept developed by him for the ThermoPower library.
- Rüdiger Franke initiated the stream connector concept as an extension
and improved version of the ThermoPower concept. In Nov. 2008 - Jan. 2009 he
greatly restructured and improved the library.
- Michael Wetter introduced trace constituents in Modelica.Fluid consistently and
provided corresponding examples under Examples.TraceSubstances.
- The following people contributed to the fluid component models,
examples, and the further design of the library
