This partial model defines an interface for components with two
ports. The treatment of the design flow direction and of flow
reversal are predefined based on the parameter
allowFlowReversal. The component may
transport fluid and may have internal storage for a given fluid
Medium.
An extending model providing direct access to internal storage
of mass or energy through port_a or port_b should redefine the
protected parameters
port_a_exposesState and
port_b_exposesState appropriately.
This will be visualized at the port icons, in order to improve the
understanding of fluid model diagrams.
