Variable primary
This is a typical configuration for constant flow secondary circuits that have a design supply temperature identical to the primary circuit. The control valve should be sized with a pressure drop at least equal to the maximum of Δp1 and 3e3 Pa. Its authority is β = ΔpA-AB / (ΔpA-AB + Δp1).
In most cases the bypass balancing valve is not needed. However, it may be needed to counter negative back pressure created by other served circuits.
By default the secondary pump is parameterized with
m2_flow_nominal
and
dp2_nominal + dpBal2_nominal + max({val.dpValve_nominal, val.dp3Valve_nominal}) + dpBal3_nominal
at maximum speed.
