Information

Heat transfer model for two pipes based on steady-state theory.

Main equations

Q_flow_supply = U1s * (Tsupply - Tground) - U2s(Treturn-Tground)

Q_flow_return = U1r * (Treturn - Tground) - U2r(Tsupply-Tground)

Options

1- Different models for the U1 and U2 values can be choosen. U models Package.
