modelDuctManifoldNoResistance

Duct manifold without resistance

Extends from PartialDuctManifold (Partial manifold for heat exchanger duct connection).

Information

Duct manifold without flow resistance.

This model connects the flows between the ports without modeling flow friction. The model is used in conjunction with a manifold which contains pressure drop elements and that is added to the other side of the heat exchanger registers.

Parameters

TypeNameDefaultDescription
IntegernPipPar (from PartialDuctPipeManifold)Number of parallel pipes in each register
IntegernPipSeg (from PartialDuctManifold)Number of pipe segments per register used for discretization
Assumptions
BooleanallowFlowReversal (from PartialDuctPipeManifold)true= true to allow flow reversal, false restricts to design direction (port_a -> port_b)
Initialization
Modelica.Units.SI.MassFlowRatemStart_flow_a (from PartialDuctPipeManifold)Guess value for mass flow rate at port_a

Connectors

TypeNameDefaultDescription
Modelica.Fluid.Interfaces.FluidPort_aport_a (from PartialDuctPipeManifold)Fluid connector a for medium (positive design flow direction is from port_a to port_b)
Modelica.Fluid.Interfaces.FluidPort_bport_b (from PartialDuctManifold)Fluid connector b for medium (positive design flow direction is from port_a to port_b)
