FixedBoundary

Boundary source component

Information

This information is part of the Modelica Standard Library maintained by the Modelica Association.

Model FixedBoundary defines constant values for boundary conditions:

  • Boundary pressure or boundary density.
  • Boundary temperature or boundary specific enthalpy.
  • Boundary composition (only for multi-substance or trace-substance flow).

Note, that boundary temperature, density, specific enthalpy, mass fractions and trace substances have only an effect if the mass flow is from the Boundary into the port. If mass is flowing from the port into the boundary, the boundary definitions, with exception of boundary pressure, do not have an effect.
