Controlled Temperature

Purpose

Provide variable temperature

Description

../../_images/t.svg

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.

Parameters

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 Signals

Temperature

The temperature difference in degrees Celsius \((^\circ\mathrm{C})\).
