The bondgraphic thermal capacitor element

Extends from Interfaces.PassiveOnePort (Partial model invoking one bondgraphic connector).

Information

The bondgraphic thermal capacitor is a passive OnePort element. It inherits the effort and flow variables from the passive OnePort. The thermal capacitance is modeled as a parameter.

The capacitance, C, is inverse proportional to the temperature.

The capacitor model has a preferred causality away from the element.


Potential variables:

 e:  Bondgraphic effort variable

 f:  Bondgraphic flow variable, normalized positive for flows into the model

 C:  Bondgraphic thermal capacitance


Parameters:

 gamma:  Thermal capacitance (default value = 1 W*sec/oK)


Equations:

C = gamma/e
f = C*der(e)
