I have multiple tables in my thesis with model results. I want to change these tables' names, meaning it wouldn't say Table 1 but Model 1 (also when referencing them). Also, a special table of content for them would be nice.

I get the model output as a .tex-file and include it with \input:

\begin{table}[htbp]
    \caption{Example Model}
    \label{model:example_model}
    \input{../models/example}
\end{table}

Is this easily doable? I've searched a bit for this, but to be honest: I don't really know what to look for.

Any hint is appreciated! Thanks in advance!

Edit: I also have other tables in my document, so I assume that changing the whole table-class is not an option.

a very similar question was asked regarding floats, and the answer appears to be relevant to tables too: New figure environment. – barbara beeton Jul 01 '15 at 13:48
Thanks bot of you for your input. I ended up using newfloat as suggested in one of the answers in Barbara's links and it works like a charm. – Klaster Jul 01 '15 at 14:19
