Buildings.Fluid.MixingVolumes.Examples.MixingVolume

Information

This model tests the implementation of the mixing volumes. It compares the results from the mixing volume of the Modelica Standard Library with the implementation in the Buildings library. If the changes are bigger than a prescribed limit, the simulation stops with an error.

Buildings.Fluid.MixingVolumes.Examples.MixingVolumePrescribedHeatFlowRate Buildings.Fluid.MixingVolumes.Examples.MixingVolumePrescribedHeatFlowRate

Test model for heat transfer to volume

Buildings.Fluid.MixingVolumes.Examples.MixingVolumePrescribedHeatFlowRate

Information

This model demonstrates the use of the mixing volume with a prescribed heat flow rate. The mixing volume is configured as a steady-state model. The heat flow rate is set to a very small value. This model is used to test convergence for the case the the prescribed heat flow rate should be zero, but due to numerical solutions, it may have a small error that causes the signal to be non-zero.
