The figure below shows a section of the schematic view of the model Buildings.Examples.HydronicHeating. In the lower part of the figure, there is a dynamic model of a boiler, a pump and a stratified energy storage tank. Based on the temperatures of the storage tank, a finite state machine switches the boiler on and off. The heat distribution is done using a hydronic heating system with a three way valve and a pump with variable revolutions. The upper right hand corner shows a simplified room model that is connected to a radiator whose flow is controlled by a thermostatic valve.
