InstallationΒΆ

To install the IDAES PSE framework, follow the set of instructions below that are appropriate for your needs and operating system.

If you get stuck, please contact idaes-support@idaes.org.

The minimal installation only installs IDAES and the free IPOPT solver with MUMPS. The full installation is recommended for access to more advanced solvers. The Docker installation works on any platform that supports Docker, but of course requires installation of, and some understanding of, Docker itself to operate.
