modelHACoilInside

Calculates the hA value for water inside a coil

Extends from Modelica.Blocks.Icons.Block (Basic graphical layout of input/output block).

Information

Model for convective heat transfer coefficients inside a coil. Optionally, the convective heat transfer coefficient can be computed as a function of temperature and mass flow rate.
