modelThermalInsulation_dynamic_1way_1layer

Thermal Insulation - dynamic - one way - one layer

Extends from ClaRa.Basics.Icons.WallThick, TransiEnt.Components.Heat.ThermalInsulation.Basics.ThermalInsulation_base (Partial Model for thermal Insulation).

Information

Purpose of model

Model for thermal insulation to the environment if dynamic heat transfer, 1 heat flow path and 1 material layer is considered

Level of detail, physical effects considered, and physical insight

  • L4 discretization in axial direction
  • lateral dynamic heat transfer
  • axial heat conduction inside thermal insulation

Limits of validity

  • constant thickness in axial direction
  • constant insulation surface in lateral direction
  • constant temperature at start in axial direction, but can depend on lateral position

Interfaces

heat port
