modelPartialDuctManifold

Partial manifold for heat exchanger duct connection

Extends from PartialDuctPipeManifold (Partial heat exchanger duct and pipe manifold).

Information

Partial duct manifold for a heat exchanger.

This model defines the duct connection to a heat exchanger. It is extended by other models that model the flow connection between the ports with and without flow friction.

Parameters

TypeNameDefaultDescription
IntegernPipPar (from PartialDuctPipeManifold)Number of parallel pipes in each register
IntegernPipSegNumber 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_bFluid connector b for medium (positive design flow direction is from port_a to port_b)
