Jacobian matrices are used in a wide range of applications - from solving the original DAEs to sensitivity analysis. Using Automatic Differentiation the necessary partial derivatives can be provided efficiently within a Modelica-Tool. This paper describes the corresponding implementation work within the OpenModelica Compiler (OMC) to create a symbolic derivative module. This new OMC-feature generates symbolically partial derivatives in order to calculate Jacobian matrices with respect to different variables. Applications presented here; are the generation of linear models of non-linear Modelica models and the usage of the Jacobian matrix in DASSL for simulating a model.
