Define a LaTex/HTML formatted text as a symbol for a variable

Define a LaTex/HTML formatted text as a symbol for a variable

Mar-10-18 07:38:32

Hello,

Does anyone know if there is a way to define a symbol for a variable using LaTex or HTML formatted text along with the name, unit and description of a variable? I need it for posprocessing of the OpenModelica _res.mat output files in Python matplotlib package.

I personally would have thought something like the following would work but not sure about that, and apparantly the annotations are not saved anywhere in the  _res.mat or _init.xml files.

Code:


parameter SI.HeatFlowRate Q_ST = 5 "Heat transfer rate" annotation(Symbol="Q\textsubscript{ST}");

I would appreciate it if someone could help with this.

Thanks,
Ali

You know that Modelica supports quoted variables, maybe you can use those. Of course, this would make the model not so pretty to look at so a solution like you propose would work better but it needs to be implemented.

Code:


parameter SI.HeatFlowRate 'Q\textsubscript{ST}' = 5 "Heat transfer rate";
