# .AixLib.ThermalZones.ReducedOrder.RC.BaseClasses.ExteriorWall

Exterior wall consisting of variable number of RC elements

## Information

`ExteriorWall` represents heat conduction and heat storage within walls. It links a variable number `n` of thermal resistances and capacities to a series connection. `n` thus defines the spatial discretization of thermal effects within the wall. All effects are considered as one-dimensional normal to the wall's surface. This model is thought for exterior wall elements that contribute to heat transfer to the outdoor. The RC-chain is defined via a vector of capacities `CExt[n]` and a vector of resistances `RExt[n]`. Resistances and capacities are connected alternately, starting with the first resistance `RExt[1]`, from heat `port_a` to heat `port_b`. `RExtRem` is the resistance between the last capacity `CExt[end]` and the heat `port_b`.
