.TransiEnt.Consumer.Heat.FirstOrderHeatingNetworkConsumer

Information

1. Purpose of model

Model represents a district heating station consumer. The model calculates the mass flow according to the feed water temperature and the prescribed heat flow demand. It reacts to a change in feed water temperature by reducing mass flow in returning mass flow path. There is no mass flow balance active.

2. Level of detail, physical effects considered, and physical insight

(no remarks)

3. Limits of validity

Model makes sense only if it is used in a closed loop, meaning that the mass flow at outlet and inlet is the same by definition. Otherwise mass flow balance is not forfilled!
