Simulation of a pneumatic system

I plan to simulate a pneumatic system in Simulink but I don't know if it is possible to simulate a pneumatic system with Simulink? Could you please help me about this issue?

In Simulink you can implement the equations of any system you want to model.

For pneumatic, there is a specific toolbox, Simscape:

that contains a pneumatic domain... see this section of the doc titled "Modeling Pneumatic Systems":

both links are depreciated. I would appreciate if you could update.

Currently, I use Matlab-Simulink r2009b version and in this version there is no pneumatic system modeling section in Simulink. Is there a specific toolbox that can be installed and also available for r2009b version? Thank you very much for your interest and help.
