This component is typically used to build submodels where the information regarding the amount in a connected stock needs to be extracted from an outside FlowPort
.
For example, the FlowPortSensor is used inside the SourceOrSink component ExponentialGrowth, where the level information is needed for the stock as it will be multiplied with a fractional rate to obtain the actual rate for the component's flow into the stock.
