◆ vdot()
Rate of volume change (m^3/s) for the adjacent reactors.
The volume rate of change is given by
\[
\dot V = K A (P_{left} - P_{right}) + F(t)
\]
where K is the specified expansion rate coefficient, A is the wall area, and F(t) is a specified function of time. Positive values for vdot
correspond to increases in the volume of reactor on left, and decreases in the volume of the reactor on the right.
- Deprecated:
- Still used by traditional MATLAB toolbox; replaceable by expansionRate.

Definition at line 37 of file Wall.cpp.
◆ expansionRate()
Rate of volume change (m^3/s) for the adjacent reactors.
The volume rate of change is given by

where K is the specified expansion rate coefficient, A is the wall area, and and F(t) is a specified function evaluated at the current network time. Positive values for expansionRate
correspond to increases in the volume of reactor on left, and decreases in the volume of the reactor on the right.
