heat_rate()

float feedtwin.vessels.collapse.CollapseModel.heat_rate	(		self,
		float	area,
		float	gas_temperature,
		float	liquid_temperature,
		LiquidThermal	liquid,
		float	elapsed )

Heat leaving the ullage [W]. Positive means the gas is cooling.

Args:
    area: Interfacial area [m^2] -- the tank's cross-section at the
        surface, which a head geometry makes a function of fill.
    gas_temperature: Bulk ullage temperature [K].
    liquid_temperature: Bulk liquid temperature [K].
    liquid: Liquid thermal properties.
    elapsed: Contact time since the interface was last reset [s].
