blockTimeInputConverted
Clock to provide time-signal in a different time base
Extends from Icons.InformationSourceIndicator (Icon used to indicate external information), Icons.Clockface_white (Face of a clock), Icons.ConverterName (Icon for converter elements).
Information
This information is part of the Business Simulation Library (BSL). Please support this work and ► donate.
The output y is a time signal (e.g., a clock) → Modelica.Blocks.Sources.ContinuousClock. The units for the output will here be a non-SIunit (e.g., min, h, d, wk, ...).
Notes
- To make components and models compatible with each other, time should always be in the SIunit
s, whiledisplayUnitis used to enter and present values in a different unit of time. - This component can be used to provide an output with a different `unit` of time instead of merely a different `displayUnit` of time. It should be used sparsely and with care.
- This component will not be supported by Modelica tools in general, but has been tested to work with Wolfram System Modeler 14.
