InertMass
This component models the thermal response of mass in interface
with a rest ambiance where the thermal exchanges are mainly driven
by natural convection, radiation and condensation.
This component is an assembly of the HeatCapacitor
module, the FreeConvection module, the Condensation
module and a CarrollRadiation module.
To remain a generic as possible, a heatport port_surface
directly connected to the mass has been added. For specific
applications, The ForcedConvection module or another module for
modelling radiation can be latter connected to this empty heat port
when importing the InertMass
For the CarrollRadiation module, the InertMass module
proposes two approaches for passing information about the form
factor.
Explicit connection: UseImplicitConnection = false
The InertMass supplies as output the surface area of the wall, via
its ports, to the FviewCalculator module and get from this last the
Fview as input. The connection is performed explicitely via the
graphic connector. The RadiativeIndex parameter is not
evaluated. The explicit method is longer and is source of mistakes
when manually selecting the index of the connection.
Implicit connection: UseImplicitConnection = true
The implicit connection use the inner and outer key
word to perform the passage of information. The ports Awall
and Fview have to remains without connection. The
FviewCalculator is declared as outer within the InertMass
module. The equations corresponding to the 'connect' with graphic
connection are done explicitely in the equation section. To connect
severals walls to the FviewCalculator, a RadiativeIndex is
added. The value of raditave index corresponds to the index of the
current wall in the FviewCalculator. Therefore, each wall needs to
have a different RadiativeIndex.
