modelTapProfile
Model for a DHW tap, reading the DHW demand profile via a CombiTimeTable.
Extends from IDEAS.Fluid.Taps.BaseClasses.PartialTap.
Information
Description
Model of a domestic hot water (DHW) tap. The tap is modelled as a thermostatic mixing valve.
The flow rate at the tap is read from a CombiTimeTable. The model requires a flow rate in [kg/s] (or [l/s]), but DHW flow rates are usually expressed in [l/min]. Therefore, an additional parameter has been added to convert the units of the profile into [kg/s].
See IDEAS.Fluid.Taps.BaseClasses.PartialTap for more information.
