Description

The Infinite Flow Resistance (IL) block represents a break in an isothermal liquid network. There is no liquid flow through the break. However, the liquid properties, specified by the Isothermal Liquid Properties (IL) block connected to the circuit, are the same on both sides of the break. Use this block to set the priority and initial target value to the difference in pressure between port A and port B.

Variables

To set the priority and initial target values for the block variables prior to simulation, use the Initial Targets section in the block dialog box or Property Inspector. For more information, see Set Priority and Initial Target for Block Variables.

Nominal values provide a way to specify the expected magnitude of a variable in a model. Using system scaling based on nominal values increases the simulation robustness. Nominal values can come from different sources, one of which is the Nominal Values section in the block dialog box or Property Inspector. For more information, see Modify Nominal Values for a Block Variable.
