modelPartialMultizone
Partial model for multizone models
Extends from AixLib.Fluid.Interfaces.LumpedVolumeDeclarations.
Information
Partial for AixLib.ThermalZones.ReducedOrder.Multizone models. It defines connectors and a replaceable vector of AixLib.ThermalZones.ReducedOrder.ThermalZone models. Most connectors are conditional to allow conditional modifications according to parameters or to pass-through conditional removements in AixLib.ThermalZones.ReducedOrder.ThermalZone and subsequently in AixLib.ThermalZones.ReducedOrder.RC.FourElements.
Typical use and important parameters
The model needs parameters describing general properties of the building (indoor air volume, net floor area, overall surface area) and a vector with length of number of zones containing AixLib.DataBase.ThermalZones.ZoneBaseRecord records to define zone properties. The user can redeclare the thermal zone model choosing from AixLib.ThermalZones.ReducedOrder.ThermalZone. Further parameters for medium, initialization and dynamics originate from AixLib.Fluid.Interfaces.LumpedVolumeDeclarations.
