Pressure Source

Pneumatic pressure source

	Description
	The Pressure Source component generates pressure according to the specified input or Signal.

	Equations
	$p = \{\begin{array}{c} inp & Psignal = True \\ P & otherwise \end{array}$ $hflow = Function (p__atm, T__env, c__p)$

Variables

Name	Units	Description	Modelica ID
$p$	$Pa$	Pressure across component	p
$mflow$	$\frac{kg}{s}$	Mass flow rate through component	mflow
${hflow}_{X}$	$\frac{kJ}{kg}$	Specific Enthalpy into port X	hflowX

Connections

Name	Description	Modelica ID
$portA$	Upstream Pneumatic port	portA
$portB$	Downstream Pneumatic port	portB

Parameters
