modelDayType
Extends from Modelica.Blocks.Icons.DiscreteBlock (Graphical layout of discrete block component icon).
Information
This block outputs a periodic signal that indicates the type of the day. It can for example be used to generate a signal that indicates whether the current time is a work day or a non-working day. The output signal is of type Buildings.Controls.Types.Day.
The parameter nout determines how many days should be
sent to the output. For applications in which only the current day
is of interest, set nout=1.
For applications in which the load is predicted for the next 24 hours,
set nout=2 in order to output the type of day for today and for
tomorrow.
The transition from one day type to another always happens when the simulation time is a multiple of 1 day. Hence, if the simulation starts for example at t=-3600 seconds, then the first transition to another day will be at t=0.
