Information

This is a base model for modular expansion valves that are used, for example, in close-loop systems like heat pumps or chillers.

Definitions needed for completion

Three definitions need to be added by an extending class using this component:

• Redecleration of the model SimpleExpansionValve.
• Redecleration of the model ModularController.
• Connection of expansionValves[i] with ports_b[i].

The latter provides the possibility to add further components (e.g. sensors or pipes) located at the expansion valves' outlets.

Modeling approaches

This base model mainly consists of two sub-models and, therefore, please checkout these models for further information of underlying modeling approaches:

• AixLib.Fluid.Actuators.Valves.ExpansionValves.BaseClasses.PartialExpansionValve.
• AixLib.Controls.HeatPump.ModularHeatPumps.BaseClasses.PartialModularController.
