[Bldg-sim] Modelica Buildings library 2.0.0 released

[Michael Wetter]

LBNL released the Modelica Buildings library 2.0.0.

The following major additions have been done in version 2.0.0:

   - A CFD model that is embedded in a thermal zone has been added. This
   model is implemented in Buildings.Rooms.CFD. The CFD model is an
   implementation of the Fast Fluid Dynamics code that allows
   three-dimensional CFD inside a thermal zone, coupled to building heat
   transfer, HVAC components and feedback control loops.
   - A new package Buildings.Electrical has been added. This package allows
   studying buildings to electrical grid integration. It includes models
   for loads, transformers, cables, batteries, PV and wind turbines. Models
   exist for DC and AC systems with two- or three-phases that can be balanced
   and unbalanced. The models compute voltage, current, active and reactive
   power based on the quasi-stationary assumption or using the dynamic
   phasorial representation.
   - The new package Buildings.Controls.DemandResponse contains models for
   demand response simulation.
   - The new package Buildings.Controls.Predictors contains a data-driven
   model that predicts the electrical load of a building. The prediction
   can be done either using an average baseline or a linear regression with
   respect to outside temperature. For both, optionally a day-of adjustment
   can be made.


This release also improves various existing models.
