Design of a calorimetric system using bond graphs

摘要

The paper presents a user application of bond graphs in the field of calorimetric systems. A calorimeter is specified to access the heat generated by an operating converter. Bond graphs are used for the design of the calorimeter, and the analysis of a manufactured prototype. The analysis leads to add several components to the original bond graph to take care of wire parasitic components. Electro-thermal simulations of the converter based on averaged models are also presented. Simulation results about the calorimeter are compared to experimental results.
