Continuous Tank (Surge)#
Library:
Fissile Facility Flow Modeler/Aqueous
Description#
This surge continuous models a tank that fills and empties based on user specified criteria and an external surge signal. For this tank to output, both the tank setpoints (i.e., tank on and off points) must be met and the surge signal must be on.
Mask dialog options#
- Tank level basis : string
The element or isotope used for the tank level min and max.
- Tank off point (kg) : float
The switch off level for the tank. If the tank inventory of the element or isotope specified in
Tank level basis
falls below this value, then flow out from the block is prohibited.- Tank on point (kg) : float
The switch on level of the tank. If the tank inventory of the element or isotope specified in
Tank level basis
rises above this value, then flow out from the block is permitted.- Match inflow : boolean
If selected, then the output flow from this block will match the input flow.
- Flowrate (kg/hr): float
The flowrate out for the tank in kg/hr.
Ports#
- In(C) : signal
Signal representing inflow to the tank. Has shape [1677, 1]. Width is dependent on mask dialog input and height is derived to ensure integration of the signal equals the original input entity.
- Srg(C): signal
Surge signal. Should be either 0 or 1 to represent flow disabled or enabled, respectively.
Outputs#
- Out(C) : signal
Continuous signal representing tank output. Has the same shape as
In(C)
.- Inv : signal
Continuous inventory signal with shape [1677, 1]. Updated continuously as
In(C)
andOut(C)
change.
