functiondp_tau_nominal_flow

Pump model with the nominal massflow model

Extends from partial_dp_tau.

Information

Model that computes nominal volume flow and has a linear factor that determines the pressure generated linearly from the difference of actual volume flow V_flow and nominal volume flow V_flow_nominal = A*l*omega = V_r*omega.

The static moment has two parts. The first is the work performed on the fluid. The second term describes linear friction with the friction factor k_fric.

Parameters V_r "Reference Volume", k_fric "friction coefficient" and k_p "pressure coefficient" can be set directly or by setting a design point of operation (angular velocity, pressure head, volume flow, slip and efficiency).
