Multi Routing

 Multiple Heat Routing

Description

The Multi Routing component models multiple Heat Routing between both vectorized ports which routing is controlled by the vectorized integer signal input sel.

The following image is an example with Thermal Conductor components to explain the behavior of Multi Routing component.

In the case of Nodes=2, Number of Routes=4, and sel=[2,3] is as followings.

The valid index of the vectorized port is specified by the vectorized input integer signal sel.

Heat conductance G__off in the invalid route is activated. Heat resistance R__on in the valid route is activated.
