Full quote
For example, in Figure 9-15 the connector to the output of the water heater has an item flow indicating distilled water is flowing, even though the out flow property of the water heater indicates it produces water.
Next snippet
The water heater is fed from a water distiller in this particular usage, so the modeler knows the output will always be distilled water, rather than other kinds of water.
