modelConvector

Heat exchanger for the water stream

Extends from IBPSA.Fluid.Interfaces.PartialTwoPortInterface, IBPSA.Fluid.Interfaces.TwoPortFlowResistanceParameters.

Information

In cooling mode, this model adds heat to the water stream. The heat added is equal to:

QBeam = Qrated fΔT fSA fW

In heating mode, the heat is removed from the water stream.
