Validation model for heat capacity with constant shade signal

Extends from Modelica.Icons.Example (Icon for runnable examples).

Information

This model validates the heat capacitor model for the window glass, with and without a shade. For the case with shade, different constant shade control signals are used to test the correct energy storage of the system. All temperatures need to decay at the same rates because the area of heat transfer, and the heat capacity to which the glass is connected, are scaled proportionally to the control signal.
