Description
Block Perfect Insulator It is a thermocouple with zero thermal conductivity and no thermal mass.
You can use this unit as insulation for thermal ports to prevent heat exchange with the environment and simulate an adiabatic process. This is not necessary, because if you leave the save port unconnected, the physical network will set all the Through variables on this port to 0. However, terminator blocks improve the readability of diagrams.
You can also use this unit to set the initial temperature in the node.
