.Buildings.Fluid.Sensors.BaseClasses.PartialDynamicFlowSensor

Information

Partial component to model a sensor that measures any intensive properties of a flow, e.g., to get temperature or density in the flow between fluid connectors.

The sensor computes a gain that is zero at zero mass flow rate. This avoids fast transients if the flow is close to zero, thereby improving the numerical efficiency.

Revisions

• December 10, 2022, by Michael Wetter:
  Corrected annotation to avoid comparing a real-valued parameter for equality.
  This is for IBPSA, #1671.
• August 9, 2016, by Michael Wetter:
  Improved documentation for tau.
• January 12, 2016, by Filip Jorissen:
  Added optional parameter tauInv.
• May 29, 2014, by Michael Wetter:
  Removed undesirable annotation Evaluate=true.
• March 29, 2013, by Michael Wetter:
  Changed the parameter initType to Modelica.Blocks.Types.Init.InitialState. This allows a pedantic model check in Dymola 2014 of models that instanciate sensors but do not set this parameter. It also ensures that different Modelica simulators solve the same initialization problem.
• July 7, 2011, by Michael Wetter:
  First implementation.
