model of equilibrium

closed system

energy in each component goes until they are equal

 

 

Simple heat flow model

heat reservoir - stock - pan of water with 1 kg of water

heat input - Kcal per minute in

heat output - Kcal per minute out

control of heat in

control of heat lost

temperature of water

temperature of air

flux of heat depends on difference in temperature

heat_out = constant*flux_constant*(pan_temp - air_temp)

example output - describe why it looks this way

 

run this simulation at different values for burner_control and heat_flux_constant
