Thermal Port
Purpose
Add thermal connector to subsystem
Library
Thermal
Description
Thermal ports are used to establish thermal connections between a PLECS circuit and a subsystem. If you copy a Thermal Port block into the schematic of a subsystem a terminal will be created on the subsystem block. The name of the port block will appear as the terminal label. If you choose to hide the block name by unselecting the show button in the dialog box the terminal label will also disappear.
Terminals can be moved around the edges of the subsystem by holding down the Shift key or by using the middle mouse button.
Note Thermal Port blocks cannot be placed in top-level circuits nor may they be used in schematics that contain Ambient Temperature blocks.
