Information

This example illustrates how to use the heater model that takes as an input the heat added to the medium.

The model consist of an air volume with heat loss to the ambient. The set point of the air temperature is different between night and day. The heater tracks the set point temperature, except for the periods in which the air temperature is above the set point.

See AixLib.Fluid.HeatExchangers.Examples.AirHeater_T for a model that takes the leaving air temperature as an input.
