HydraulicsByFluidon/Components/Volumes

Description

Model of a simple hydraulic capacity. It can be used to represent the volume of adjacent components that lack any spatial expansion, e. g. the IdealResistor component. The temporal change rate of pressure equals the net mass flow into the capacity.

The capacity C used to calculate the rate of pressure change takes into account the compression modulus of the fluid. The housing is assumed to be ideally rigid (in comparison to fluid). If the housing is to be taken into account, component VolumeExt must be used.
