The Thermoptim demo version is the only one available for download.
Note that the Windows version has been much more tested than the others, that the Linux version has only been tested under Ubuntu, and that running the Mac version may be blocked by some recent Apple operating systems. We have developed a solution to address this. It consists of running Thermoptim from the Eclipse development environment.
This page tells you how to install Eclipse and launch Thermoptim on a Mac. For the installation of the browser, specific indications are given below.
The French versions can be directly downloaded by displaying this page in French.
Version 2.52 continues to be released, but we recommend that you use version 2.82, unless, for pedagogical reasons, you prefer not to display the menus corresponding to the advanced features of Thermoptim.

| Mac (Eclipse project) |

This version, which includes all the features of 2.52, allows you to carry out studies of technological sizing and operation in off-design regime as well as to calculate exergy balances. This is the one that is used in the guided explorations of Thermoptim's advanced features.

The Thermoptim browser contains all the guided explorations, including those related to the advanced features of the software package.
Warning: this browser uses a specific library called JavaFX, which is no longer available in the Java environments distributed by Oracle. You now need to install an open-source version called OpenJFX.
Earlier versions are available at these addresses. If your Java version is a bit old, they will work without any issues. Otherwise, instructions for setting up OpenJFX are provided below.
For Windows, we have prepared a version that includes all the libraries, which you can download from this address. To open the Thermoptim browser, double-click on OpenJFX_Launcher.bat in the main installation directory. The browser opens a specific window and launches Thermoptim.
For older versions of Oracle Java, follow the given instructions, for Mac, in this page, and for Linux Ubuntu, in this one.
To use OpenJFX, start by downloading the archive containing the guided explorations from the links below, then set up your environment by following the instructions provided in these guides: Configuration for MacOS, Configuration for Ubuntu.
This version includes the project and diagram files for all guided explorations, as well as the corresponding catalog of examples.
| Windows |
| Mac (with Eclipse project) |
