Controlled Temperature

Purpose

Provide variable temperature

Thermal

Description

pict pict

The Controlled Temperature generates a variable temperature difference between its two thermal connectors or between the thermal connector and the thermal reference. The temperature difference is considered positive if the terminal marked with a "+" has a higher temperature. The momentary temperature difference is determined by the signal fed into the input of the component.

Parameter

Allow state-space inlining
For expert use only! When set to on and the input signal is a linear combination of thermal measurements, PLECS will eliminate the input variable from the state-space equations and substitute it with the corresponding output variables. The default is off.

Probe Signal

Temperature
The temperature difference in kelvin (K).
