Examples with hierarchical connectors

Question

I'm getting to understand about hierarchical connectors in Modelica. Are there any libraries with examples involving hierarchical connectors (connector within a connector)? I've gone few websites looking for it and couldnt find much information. Any leads will be appreciated.

Answer 1

There are examples of this in the Modelica Standard Library:

• Modelica.Electrical.MultiPhase.Interfaces.Plug
• Modelica.Electrical.QuasiStationary.MultiPhase.Interfaces.Plug
• Modelica.Mechanics.MultiBody.Interfaces.FlangeWithBearing

A closely related concept is expandable connector. Here are some examples of this:

• Modelica Standard Library: Modelica.Blocks.Examples.BusUsage
• Book section: http://book.xogeny.com/components/architectures/thermal_control/
• The VehicleInterfaces libarary uses them extensively.
