modelThermalConductor

Lumped thermal element with variable area, transporting heat without storing it

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

Information

This is a model for transport of heat without storing it. It is identical to the thermal conductor from the Modelica Standard Library, except that it adds an input signal u.
