Modelica.Thermal.HeatTransfer.Rankine

Components with Rankine input and/or output

Information

The components of this package are provided for the convenience of people working mostly with Rankine units, since all models in package HeatTransfer are based on Kelvin units.

Note, that in package SIunits.Conversions, functions are provided to convert between the units Kelvin, degree Celsius, degree Fahrenheit and degree Rankine. These functions allow, e.g., a direct conversion of units at all places where Kelvin is required as parameter. Example:

    import SIunits.Conversions.*;
    Modelica.Thermal.HeatTransfer.HeatCapacitor C(T0 = from_degRk(500));

Modelica.Thermal.HeatTransfer.Rankine.FixedTemperature Modelica.Thermal.HeatTransfer.Rankine.FixedTemperature

Fixed temperature boundary condition in degRankine

Information

This model defines a fixed temperature T at its port in degree Rankine, [degRk], i.e., it defines a fixed temperature as a boundary condition.

Parameters

Modelica.Thermal.HeatTransfer.Rankine.PrescribedTemperature Modelica.Thermal.HeatTransfer.Rankine.PrescribedTemperature

Variable temperature boundary condition in degRankine

Information

This model represents a variable temperature boundary condition The temperature value in degree Rankine, [degRk] is given by the input signal to the model. The effect is that an instance of this model acts as an infinite reservoir able to absorb or generate as much energy as required to keep the temperature at the specified value.

Modelica.Thermal.HeatTransfer.Rankine.TemperatureSensor Modelica.Thermal.HeatTransfer.Rankine.TemperatureSensor

Absolute temperature sensor in degRankine

Information

This is an ideal absolute temperature sensor which returns the temperature of the connected port in Rankine as an output signal. The sensor itself has no thermal interaction with whatever it is connected to. Furthermore, no thermocouple-like lags are associated with this sensor model.
