The Ambient component has a single thermal media flow-port at which the pressure and temperature are either set by parameters or controlled via signals.

The Medium parameter specifies the name of a Thermal-Fluid Media record, which must be in the model at the same or higer level.

The Use default medium boolean parameter, when true, sets the name of the Medium parameter to fluidMedium1, which corresponds to the default name of a fluid medium record. To use a different name, uncheck the box and enter the name in the parameter input that appears.

$p\=\{\begin{array}{cc}{P}_{\mathrm{input}}& \mathrm{use}{P}_{\mathrm{amb}}\mathrm{input}\\ p_{\mathrm{amb}}& \mathrm{otherwise}\end{array}$

$T\=\{\begin{array}{cc}{T}_{\mathrm{input}}& \mathrm{use}{T}_{\mathrm{amb}}\mathrm{input}\\ T_{\mathrm{amb}}& \mathrm{otherwise}\end{array}$
