HeatPort¶
Thermal port: temperature and heat flow rate into the component
FastSmoothBuildings.Interfaces.HeatPort, connector (source)
Purpose
Thermal port of the library: the temperature of a node and the heat flow rate through the port.
| Variable | Unit | Kind | Meaning |
|---|---|---|---|
T | K | potential | Temperature of the port |
Q_flow | W | flow | Heat flow rate into the component, positive when heat enters it |
In a connection the temperatures are equal and the heat flow rates sum to zero: the heat that leaves one component enters the others (see Conventions).
Use
The emitters and ideal systems connect to the ports heaPorAir (convective, at the air temperature) and
heaPorRad (radiant) of a zone; the ports con and rad of
SurfaceBus carry the exchanges between a zone
and its surfaces. Same variables and sign as the heat port of the Modelica Standard Library.
