Description
Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
The sensor components in the MTK Thermal library do not have output connectors. Thus they cannot be wired to other components as expected (i.e. PID, etc.). This request applies to TemperatureSensor, RelativeTemperatureSensor, and HeatFlowSensor.
Describe the solution you’d like
The sensed variables should be added to a RealOutput component.
Describe alternatives you’ve considered
A clear and concise description of any alternative solutions or features you’ve considered.
Additional context
For reference, you can look at Modelica Standard Library (i.e. Modelica.Thermal.HeatTransfer.Sensors.TemperatureSensor)

Research direction
Locate the MTK Thermal library implementations of TemperatureSensor, RelativeTemperatureSensor, and HeatFlowSensor, then compare their interfaces with Modelica.Thermal.HeatTransfer.Sensors.TemperatureSensor. Check how RealOutput is used elsewhere in the library and verify that each sensor exposes its sensed variable for wiring to components such as PID.
