recordCompressionFactorsNTP

Record containing the compression factors Z of gas components for normal temperature and pressure

Extends from TransiEnt.Basics.Icons.Record (Icon for records).

Information

1. Purpose of model

This record contains the compression factors at STP for some fuel gas components use in the TransiEnt library.

2. Level of detail, physical effects considered, and physical insight

No physical effects considered.

3. Limits of validity

(no remarks)

4. Interfaces

(no remarks)

5. Nomenclature

(no elements)

6. Governing Equations

The names vector contains the component names

.

In the molarmasses vector the molar mass for each component is defined in kg/mol


.

Values for N2, CO2, O2 and H2O were calculated using Z=p/(rho*R*T).

7. Remarks for Usage

  • Be sure to store the molar mass for each component in molarmasses vector in the same column in which the name is stored in the names vector.

8. Validation

No validation needed.
