Component Prototype
Description
Valve
Component
Valve component is a component of the petrochemical domain. This component builds a three-dimensional Valve. Valve is build out of three different models (Tapped, wheel and tube). The component bases on the Geometry3dsComponent to load the geometry of the component into the scene (see Geometry3dsComponent). In order to build the Valve component, the following parameters are needed: offset, scale, tappedVisible, wheelVisible, tubeVisible and typeOfValve (See Figure Valve)
In-slots
Name
Type
Description
visible
boolean
The component is shown when true and hidden when false.
transformation
matrix
This transformation matrix is applied to the component geometry when shown
openingPercentage
double
This value depicts to the percentage of opening of the tapped (0 = completely closed; 100 = completely open)
temperature
double
Value in the input of the valve
pressure
double
Value in the input of the valve
Out-slots
Name
Type
Description
visible
boolean
The in-slot is propagated to the out-slot
transformation
matrix
This transformation matrix corresponds to the output transformation, which combines input transformation with the offset.
openingPercentage
double
Emits the same value of the input
temperature
double
Value in the output of the valve
pressure
double
Value in the output of the valve
id
integer3
Id of the model that can change at run time (a translation of the tapped and a rotation of the wheel)
nodeTransformation
matrix
Transformation matrix of the model that can change at run time (tapped or wheel)
Properties
Name
Type
Description
iconFileName*
string
The filename of the icon shown for the component in the authoring environment.
offset
matrix
The offset transformation matrix between the transformation given by the in-slot and the geometry model
scale
double
scales the component in the three axis.
tappedVisible
boolean
Shows the model tapped when true and hides when false.
wheelVisible
boolean
Shows the model wheel when true and hides when false.
tubeVisible
boolean
Shows the model tube when true and hides when false.
typeOfValve
integer
Selects the type of valve: (see Figures)
- Gate Valve
- Adjustable Gate Valve
- Spherical Valve
Conical Valve
