# This input file models an open, recuperated Brayton cycle with a PID
# controlled start up using a coupled motor.
#
# Heat is supplied to the system by a volumetric heat source, and a second heat
# source is used to model a recuperator. The recuperator transfers heat from the
# turbine exhaust gas to the compressor outlet gas.
#
# Initially the fluid and heat structures are at rest at ambient conditions,
# and the shaft speed is zero.
# The transient is controlled as follows:
# * 0 - 2000 s: Motor increases shaft speed to approx. 85,000 RPM by PID control
# * 1000 - 8600 s: Power in main heat source increases from 0 - 104 kW
# * 2000 - 200000 s: Torque supplied by turbine increases to steady state level
# as working fluid temperature increases. Torque supplied by
# the motor is ramped down to 0 N-m transitioning shaft control
# to the turbine at its rated speed of 96,000 RPM.
