ModelAir

ModelAir(static_env: StaticEnvAir)

Bases: Model[ModelAirRunOptions, StateAir, ScenarioModelAir, StaticEnvAir, CableAir]

ModelAir computes cable temperatures for installations in air using the finite difference method.

In most cases the model is instantiated with a StaticEnvAir and executed with a scenario via run().

Parameters:

Name	Type	Description	Default
static_env	StaticEnvAir	A StaticEnvAir instance containing the circuit configuration and cable properties.	required

cables_in_environment property

cables_in_environment: dict[CableKey, PosCable[CableAir]]

Return per-run cable instances for the model.

Runtime cable properties can differ from their static/default values. For cables in air, this mainly concerns temperature-dependent pipe-fill resistivity.
