Package Modelica.Blocks.Types
Library of constants, external objects and types with choices, especially to build menus

Information

In this package types, constants and external objects are defined that are used in library Modelica.Blocks. The types have additional annotation choices definitions that define the menus to be built up in the graphical user interface when the type is used as parameter in a declaration.

Extends from Modelica.Icons.TypesPackage (Icon for packages containing type definitions).

Enumeration Modelica.Blocks.Types.Init
Enumeration defining initialization of a block

Information

The following initialization alternatives are available:

NoInit: No initialization (start values are used as guess values with fixed=false)
SteadyState: Steady state initialization (derivatives of states are zero)
InitialState: Initialization with initial states
InitialOutput: Initialization with initial outputs (and steady state of the states if possible)

Literals

Name	Description
`NoInit`	No initialization (start values are used as guess values with fixed=false)
`SteadyState`	Steady state initialization (derivatives of states are zero)
`InitialState`	Initialization with initial states
`InitialOutput`	Initialization with initial outputs (and steady state of the states if possible)

Enumeration Modelica.Blocks.Types.InitPID
Enumeration defining initialization of PID and LimPID blocks

Information

This initialization type is identical to Types.Init and has just one additional option DoNotUse_InitialIntegratorState. This option is introduced in order that the default initialization for the Continuous.PID and Continuous.LimPID blocks are backward compatible. In Modelica 2.2, the integrators have been initialized with their given states where as the D-part has not been initialized. The option DoNotUse_InitialIntegratorState leads to this initialization definition.

The following initialization alternatives are available:

NoInit: No initialization (start values are used as guess values with fixed=false)
SteadyState: Steady state initialization (derivatives of states are zero)
InitialState: Initialization with initial states
InitialOutput: Initialization with initial outputs (and steady state of the states if possible)
DoNotUse_InitialIntegratorState: Do not use, only for backward compatibility (initialize only integrator state)

Literals

Name	Description
`NoInit`	No initialization (start values are used as guess values with fixed=false)
`SteadyState`	Steady state initialization (derivatives of states are zero)
`InitialState`	Initialization with initial states
`InitialOutput`	Initialization with initial outputs (and steady state of the states if possible)
`DoNotUse_InitialIntegratorState`	Do not use, only for backward compatibility (initialize only integrator state)
