Abstract :
A novel approach, based both on multipoint moment matching and principal component analysis, is proposed for generating passive compact models of dynamic thermal networks with many heat sources. As main result, the generated passive compact dynamic thermal networks both assure a prescribed accuracy and have a number of elements linearly related to the number of heat sources.
