modelVarAirExchange

Heat flow caused by air exchange

Extends from Modelica.Thermal.HeatTransfer.Interfaces.Element1D (Partial heat transfer element with two HeatPort connectors that does not store energy).

Information

Overview

The VarAirExchange model describes heat transfer by air exchange (e.g. due to opening a window). It needs the air exchange rate (in h^(-1)) as input value.
