Prescribes the flow rate across the component

Extends from Icons.Water.SourceW.

Information

This component prescribes the flow rate passing through it. The change of specific enthalpy due to the pressure difference between the inlet and the outlet is ignored; use Pump models if this has to be taken into account correctly.

Modelling options

If w0Fix is set to true, the flowrate is given by the parameter w0; otherwise, the in_w0 connector must be wired, providing the (possibly varying) flowrate value.
