Example model for the heater with prescribed outlet temperature and air as the medium

Extends from Modelica.Icons.Example, BuildingSystems.Fluid.HeatExchangers.Examples.BaseClasses.Heater.

Information

This example illustrates how to use the heater model that takes as an input the leaving fluid temperature.

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 BuildingSystems.Fluid.HeatExchangers.Examples.AirHeater_u for a model that takes the heating power as an input.
