Restored attachment LinearTemperatureDependency.pdf.
The remaining time to MSL4.0.0 seems to be too short for me. I'd like postpone this issue.
Reported by AHaumer on 12 Feb 2010 18:29 UTC The following can only be done when a conversion script is allowed, and holds not only for Electrical but also for Modelica.Thermal.HeatTransfer.Sources.Fixed/PrescribedHeatFlow:
We should choose a consistent default / start value for all reference temperatures of 20 degC = 293.15 K (27 degC = 300.15 K has no meaning to me).
We should define the LinearTemperatureCoefficient alpha consistently at 20 degC = 293.15 K (not at reference temperature).
Such a material coefficient can be found in material databases defined at 20 degC, not at other temperatures. I have attached a document that shows how alpha can be converted from 20 degC to an other reference temperature.
