Information

Model of two pipes in parallel

Parameters

TypeNameDefaultDescription
IntegernNodesinteger(ceil(length/100))Number of volume segments
Modelica.Units.SI.LengthlengthLength of the pipe
BooleanInteractionBetweenPipesfalse= false to neglect interaction between pipes
Nominal condition
Modelica.Units.SI.MassFlowRatem_flow_nominalNominal mass flow rate
Initialitzation
Modelica.Media.Interfaces.Types.AbsolutePressurep_startMedium.p_defaultStart value of pressure
Modelica.Media.Interfaces.Types.TemperatureT_start_supply273.15 + 90Start value of temperature
Modelica.Media.Interfaces.Types.TemperatureT_start_return273.15 + 50Start value of temperature
Assumptions
BooleanallowFlowReversaltrue= true to allow flow reversal, false restricts to design direction (port_a -> port_b)
Flow resistance
Booleanfrom_dpfalse= true, use m_flow = f(dp) else dp = f(m_flow)
BooleanlinearizeFlowResistancefalse= true, use linear relation between m_flow and dp for any flow rate
RealdeltaM0.1Fraction of nominal flow rate where flow transitions to laminar
Modelica.Units.SI.ReynoldsNumberReC4000Reynolds number where transition to turbulent starts
