.Buildings.Fluid.Storage.Ice.BaseClasses.StateOfCharge

Information

This block calculates the state of charge using

d SOC/dt = Q̇_eff/(H_f   m_ice,max)

where SOC is the state of charge, Q̇ is the heat transfer rate of the ice tank, positive for charging and negative for discharging, Hf is the fusion of heat of ice and m_ice,max is the nominal mass of ice in the storage tank.

The model sets Q̇_eff = Q̇, unless the state of charge is 0 or 1, in which case Q̇_eff is set to zero if it were to lead to over- or under-charging.

Revisions

• January 26, 2022, by Michael Wetter:
  Rewrote model to avoid state of charge to be outside of [0, 1].
• December 8, 2021, by Yangyang Fu:
  First implementation.
