Abstract :
The paper presents a pseudo bond graph model of a thermo-hydraulic system which is composed by two warm and cold water pipes, a plastic tank and an evacuation pipe. This model is designed on 20sim software and it allows varying the temperature, inside the tank, by acting on the mass flows of the warm and cold water, as well as on the evacuation pipe. A simulation is done for constant and variable water mass flows to show the efficiency of this bond graph model.
