VariableHeatCapacitor
Lumped thermal element storing heat with variable capacity
Library
Thermal/HeatTransfer
Description
This is a generic model for the heat capacity of a material. No specific geometry is assumed beyond a total volume with uniform temperature for the entire volume. The heat capacity is set by an input.
