BaseClass

Information

Two main base class are defined:

  • PartialHeatTransfer
  • PartialHeatTransfer_IdealFluid

PartialHeatTransfer

The Partial model PartialHeatTransfer is the basic model for heat transfer of a real fluid in the library. It calculates the
heat flux, q_dot[n], exchanged through the thermal port, ThermalPortL[n], for each segment n, based on the thermodynamic state of the fluid flow ,FluidState[n], and the temperatures at the boundary, T_fluid and thermalPortL.T.
In order to complete the model – from partial model to model – one equation relating the exchanged heat flux, q_dot, with the fluid temperature, T_fluid, and the temperature at the boundary thermalPortL.T has to be provided.

PartialHeatTransfer_IdealFluid

The Partial model PartialHeatTransfer_IdealFluid is the basic model for heat transfer of an ideal fluid in the library. It calculates the heat flux, q_dot, exchanged through the thermal port, ThermalPortL. In order to complete the model – from partial model to model – one equation relating the exchanged heat flux, q_dot, with the fluid temperature, T_fluid, and the temperature at the boundary thermalPortL.T has to be provided
