modelRefrigerantCycle
Refrigerant cycle model of a heat pump
Extends from Buildings.Fluid.HeatPumps.ModularReversible.BaseClasses.PartialModularRefrigerantCycle (Partial refrigerant cycle model).
Information
Modular refrigerant cycle model for heat pump applications used in the model Buildings.Fluid.HeatPumps.ModularReversible.Modular and extending models of the modular approach.
This model adds the replaceable model approaches for cooling and heating data to the partial refrigerant cylce.
Further, an asseration warning is raised if the model approaches or sources for performance data differ. This indicates that they are not for the same device.
For more information on the approach, please read the UsersGuide.
Parameters
| Type | Name | Default | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| Boolean | use_rev (from PartialModularRefrigerantCycle) | true | True if the refrigerant machine is reversible |
| Boolean | allowDifferentDeviceIdentifiers | false | if use_rev=true, device data for cooling and heating need to entered. Set allowDifferentDeviceIdentifiers=true to allow different device identifiers devIde |
