refrigerator and freezer compartments
Real-world systems often exhibit rapid changes or discontinuities that must be resolved accurately during numerical simulation. This example simulates a household refrigerator freezer in several scenarios, correctly handling events such as the sudden triggering of a thermostat or the opening of a compartment door.
To run this example, you'll need

Get aHybrid Discrete-Continuous Simulation
Correctly handle discontinuities associated with opening and closing compartment doors and with thermostats triggered by changing temperatures.
Multi-Domain Modeling
Combine different physical domains, including fluid heat flow (air circulation), thermal (food and insulation), and signal processing (thermostat).
Simulate Different Scenarios
Compare performance under different conditions, such as the addition of hot food to a normally loaded versus a near-empty refrigerator compartment.
