Heat Flow Sensor

Heat flow rate sensor

	Description
	The Heat Flow Sensor component monitors the heat flow rate flowing through it. This component assumes an ideal situation; no energy is lost between the ports. The output signal is positive if the heat flows from input $port_a$ to $port_b$ .

Equations

$T_{a} = T_{b}$

$Q_{flow &period; a} + Q_{flow &period; b} = 0$

$Q_{flow} = Q_{flow &period; a}$

Variables

Symbol	Units	Description	Modelica ID
$T_{a}$	$K$	Temperature at port a
$T_{b}$	$K$	Temperature at port b
$Q_{flow &period; a}$	$W$	Heat flow at port a
$Q_{flow &period; b}$	$W$	Heat flow at port a

Connections
