Thermal Capacitance by International Energy Agency It models a thermal capacitance. It can be used in order to take into account the thermal behavior of the pipes or of the boiler. C*Dtex/Dtau = m*cp*(tsu-tex) If the value of C is 0, tex = tsu INPUTS: 1 water supply temperature 2 water mass flow rate PARAMETERS: 1 thermal capacitance 2 cp OUTPUTS: 1 exhaust temperature 2 water mass flow rate Ref: IEA ANNEX 17:BEMS Synthesis Report Univ. of Stuttgart 6-27-91 AN17-910627-01
