modelMassFlowRateMultiplier
Model that multiplies the mass flow rate
Extends from IBPSA.Fluid.Interfaces.PartialTwoPort.
Information
This model multiplies the mass flow rate so that
0 = port_b.m_flow + k * port_a.m_flow.
The specific enthalpy, the species concentration and the trace substance concentration remain unchanged. Therefore, this model does not conserve mass or energy. It is used in IBPSA.Fluid.Geothermal.Borefields.BaseClasses.PartialBorefield and also in the Buildings library to avoid having to instantiate circuits in parallel, with each having the same mass flow rate and temperatures.
Parameters
