modelFixedTransferEfficiency
Model with fixed transfer efficiency
Information
This model assumes a fixed transfer efficiency eta in the direction of the actual (positive) energy flow.
The actual (positive) direction of energy flow is indicated by arrows on icon layer.
Note that the case eta = 0, E_flow_in ≤ 0
(which implies E_flow_out = E_flow_dissipation) is not well-defined.
Parameters
| Type | Name | Default | Description |
|---|---|---|---|

Components
| Type | Name | Default | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| Real | direction | sign(E_flow_in) | = 1.0 if physical direction of power flow is from input to output, = -1.0 if opposite |
| SI.EnergyFlowRate | E_flow_dissipation | Dissipative energy flow rate (into the system) <0 |
