Class Description
HeatPort Thermal port: temperature and heat flow rate into the component
WaterInlet Water inlet: mass flow rate into the component, temperature of the water crossing it
WaterOutlet Water outlet: mass flow rate into the component, temperature of the water crossing it
WeatherInputs Weather data: inputs of building_mpc (from a weather file or a forecast)
WeatherBus Weather data and solar position (source side)
WeatherBusIn Weather data and solar position (receiving side)
SurfaceBus A surface of a zone, surface side: heat exchanges, properties, weather
ZoneSurfaceBus A surface of a zone, zone side
ControlInput A control of building_mpc: input between its bounds (a decision of the MPC)
ControlSignal Control signal of a component (receiving side)
GainInputs Internal gains per floor area: inputs (from an occupancy schedule)
OccupancyInputs Internal gains of a zone: inputs of building_mpc
Gains Internal gains per floor area (receiving side)
GainOutputs Internal gains per floor area (source side)
HeatFlowInput Heat flow rate of an ideal system: input of building_mpc

Connectors: heat ports, water and weather connectors, the buses between zones and surfaces, the inputs of a model for optimal control (weather, gains, controls).
