Information

The concept of "additivity of pressure" is defined by Dalton's law of partial pressures, which states that the partial pressures of the components of a mixture sum to the total pressure of the mixture [Bejan2006, p. 192]. The components are assumed to exist at the total volume of the mixture.

In order to implement Dalton's law, this connector includes pressure as a flow variable. The effort variable is volume. This implies that the effort and flow variables are conjugates of energy (not power).
