modelControlledVolumeFlowPump

Pump with controlled volume flow rate

Information

This model describes a pump with ideally controlled volume flow rate.

The input connectors V_flow_set can optionally be enabled via use_V_flow_set to provide time varying set points.

Use this model if the pump characteristics is of secondary interest. The actual characteristics can be configured later on for the appropriate rotational speed N. Then the model can be replaced with a PrescribedPump.
