Extends from TRANSFORM.Fluid.Interfaces.Records.Visualization_showName.

Information

Interface and base class for a solid volume able to store energy. The following boundary flow and source terms are part of the energy balance and must be specified in an extending class:

  • Qb_flow: heat flow rate across boundary
  • Q_gen: internal heat generation, e.g. q_ppp*Volume

The component volume, V, is an input that needs to be set in the extending class to complete the model.
