Information

This component represents a gas tank or pressure vessel of fixed volume.

Parameters

The gas or liquid medium that is present in the vessel can be changed by altering the Medium parameter. You can access a drop-down list of preset choices by clicking the small down arrow in the input field. The choice of medium will influence the heat capacity of the vessel, as well as the relationship between temperature and pressure.

mediumbar

The parameters p_start and T_start will influence the starting conditions for the vessel.
