IronPython Script Snippets
Script Manager Snippet 1: Create and Connect Objects
Assuming that you're running a simulation with defined compound(s) and property package(s), this will create and connect a cooler and its connections:
<script lang=python>
import clr clr.AddReference('DWSIM.Interfaces')
from DWSIM import Interfaces
cooler = Flowsheet.AddObject(Interfaces.Enums.GraphicObjects.ObjectType.Cooler, 100, 100, 'COOLER-001') heat_out = Flowsheet.AddObject(Interfaces.Enums.GraphicObjects.ObjectType.EnergyStream, 130, 150, 'HEAT_OUT') inlet = Flowsheet.AddObject(Interfaces.Enums.GraphicObjects.ObjectType.MaterialStream, 50, 100, 'INLET') outlet = Flowsheet.AddObject(Interfaces.Enums.GraphicObjects.ObjectType.MaterialStream, 150, 100, 'OUTLET')
cooler.GraphicObject.CreateConnectors(1, 1) inlet.GraphicObject.CreateConnectors(1, 1) outlet.GraphicObject.CreateConnectors(1, 1) heat_out.GraphicObject.CreateConnectors(1, 1)
Flowsheet.ConnectObjects(inlet.GraphicObject, cooler.GraphicObject, 0, 0) Flowsheet.ConnectObjects(cooler.GraphicObject, outlet.GraphicObject, 0, 0) Flowsheet.ConnectObjects(cooler.GraphicObject, heat_out.GraphicObject, 0, 0)
