Interface definitions for cooling section process models:
Please refer to the
PRMC Interface
for the general purpose software interface. Here we define the
input data vector
x, the parameters
p and
the output vector
y:
COOLSEC V.1 (the most simple cooling section process model

Mean Heat Transfer Coefficient | +1e6, Optional, D:1000 |
All data as 64bit double precision numbers.
+#: positive Numbers below #
-#: positive Numbers above #
Optional values out of range implies the usage of the
D#: default value #.
