modelCylindric_Geometry

Vertical cylindric geometry extending the partial_Geometry

Extends from TransiEnt.Storage.Heat.HotWaterStorage_L4.Base.Partial_Geometry (Partial model of storage geometry).

Information

1. Purpose of model

Cylindric geometry for the one dimensional hot water storage. The model delivers shape informations for all segments.

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

No physical effects considered.

3. Limits of validity

The cylindric geometry is discretize in segments of same height.

4. Interfaces

(no remarks)

5. Nomenclature

Needed


height: Height of storage


nSeg: Number of vertical storage segments (min = 2)


volume_Seg[nSeg]: Volumes of the storage segments

Calculated

A_wall[nSeg](calculated): Areas of wall around the storage segments

A_top(calculated): Top area of storage

A_bottom(calculated): Bottom area of storage

A_cross[nSeg-1](calculated): Cross-sectional areas between the segements of the storage

height_Seg(calculated): Height of one storage segment
