I am trying to use the Modelica Media library for a first, simple thermo-fluid modeling system:

I want to calculate a heated pipes temperature development when it’s heated up.

I would like to run a simulation until I tell it to stop i.e. run it without entering a specific stopTime. Does the Modelica language provide for this functionality and, if so, does a tool like OpenModelica Connection Editor have this capability?

I am having trouble constraining translational motion using a prismatic joint in Modelica. My goal is to make a body stop after it has moved a certain distance (x meters). Ideally, I want the motion to stop suddenly, but it’s also acceptable if it stops gradually.
