Heat Flow Multiplier

Information

Purpose of model

The model contains to heat ports. It simply multiplies the heat flow at port_a with a given factor to determin the heat flow at port b. The temperature of the heat flow doesn't change.

Level of detail, physical effects considered, and physical insight

It is a purely technical component. No physical behaviour is considered.

Interfaces

port_a: input heat flow to be multiplied

port_b: output heat flow (multiplied)

Governing Equations

-factor*Q_flow_a=Q_flow_b

Remarks for Usage

This model can lead to unphysical behavior since it contains an invalid energy balance.
