User Guide

Installing DPsim and running simulations with it.

For readers who want to run simulations: installation, building from source, and the tasks that come up while setting up and running a study.

To change DPsim itself rather than use it, see the developer guide. For the mathematics behind what the solvers compute, see concepts.

Logging Results

Choosing what a simulation records, where it goes, and what it costs.
