• [ ] Similar to oemof/oemof-solph/pulls/793 future revisions should consider private and public API.
• [ ] The structure of input data, processing/solving and output data could be adjusted to pandas/numpy like data structures.
• [ ] Algorithms for starting value generation shoudl be improved.
• [x] Renaming of some components:
  • [x] HeatExchangerSimple -> SimpleHeatExchanger
  • [x] CombustionChamber -> SimpleCombustionChamber/AdiabaticCombustionChamber
  • [x] DiabaticCombustionChamber -> CombustionChamber
• [x] Renaming of some modules:
  • [x] heat_exchangers
    • [x] heat_exchanger_simple.py -> simple.py
    • [x] heat_exchanger.py -> base.py (???)
  • combustion
    • combustion_chamber_stoich.py -> stoichiometric.py
    • [x] combustion_chamber.py -> adiabatic.py/simple.py
    • [x] combustion_engine.py -> engine.py
• The unit system should get a major rework and include units for component properties
• Rework docs
  • [x] Fresh look
  • [x] Improved structure

Perhaps https://pint.readthedocs.io/en/stable/index.html could be useful for the unit definitions and conversions?

[fwitte]

• The fluid property back end should be changed in a way, that the CoolProp AbstractState object which is used to call the fluid property functions is tied to the network object. By this, it will be easier
  • to implement different fluid property back ends and use them simultanously in a single model (see #327, #302)
  • to allow paralllel processing (if copies of a network are made, see #343)
• Make use of more generic base classes #219
