Two way valve with linear opening characteristics

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

Information

Test model for two way valves. The instance valTab has a linear opening characteristics based on a table, while valLin also has a linear opening characteristics that is directly implemented in the model. For practical applications in which valves with linear opening characteristics are used, one should use valLin rather than valTab as valLin is a more efficient implementation.

This test demonstrates that both valves have, as expected, the same mass flow rate for the whole range of the opening signal.

The parameter filterOpening is set to false, as this model is used to plot the flow at different opening signals without taking into account the travel time of the actuator.
