- powerTotal power [W]
C++ Type:double
Controllable:Yes
Description:Total power [W]
TotalPower
This component is a power component that specifies the power as a constant value via a user parameter.
Usage
The user provides a power value via the parameter "power". This parameter may be controlled via the ControlLogic system.
Input Parameters
- control_tagsAdds user-defined labels for accessing object parameters via control logic.
C++ Type:std::vector<std::string>
Controllable:No
Description:Adds user-defined labels for accessing object parameters via control logic.
- enableTrueSet the enabled status of the MooseObject.
Default:True
C++ Type:bool
Controllable:No
Description:Set the enabled status of the MooseObject.
Advanced Parameters
Variables
This component creates the following auxiliary scalar variable, where <cname>
is the name of the component:
Variable | Description |
---|---|
<cname>:power | Power [W] |
