The mathematical model under this component derives from the integrated Darcy law for a compressible fluid. In that law, the flow is supposed to linearly vary with the pressure difference. Knowing the pressure drop and the flow (m3/s) at an operating (or nominal) point, all the other working points can be guessed from the product of the ratio of the current pressure drop over the nominal pressure and the nominal volume flow rate.
The mass flow rate relation derives:
Where:
dp is the boundary pressure difference between port_a.p and port_b.p k is the permeability μ is the dynamic viscosity A is inlet cross section L is length of the sample units K is a kind of linear the pressure loss coefficient (or hydraulic conductance) d is the upstream density m_flow is the mass flow rate induced by convection | Name | Description |
