modelInfiltrationRate_DIN12831

Heat flow caused by infiltration after european standard DIN EN 12831

Extends from Modelica.Thermal.HeatTransfer.Interfaces.Element1D (Partial heat transfer element with two HeatPort connectors that does not store energy).

Information

Overview

The InfiltrationRate model describes heat and mass transport by infiltration.

Concept

Air exchange coefficients at 50 Pa pressure difference between ambience and room air:
