-
class
PythonModel.fluids.
ConstantPropertyWater
¶ Bases:
object
Object for the evaluation of thermal properties of heat transfer fluid Water.
-
get_Density
(**kwargs)¶ Returns the density of water.
- Returns
Density of water at 20 C (kg/m3)
- Usage: Type
>>> flu = ConstantPropertyWater() >>> '%.2f' % flu.get_Density() '998.21'
-
get_SpecificIsobaricHeatCapacity
(**kwargs)¶ Returns the specific isobaric heat capacity of water.
- Returns
Specific isobaric heat capacity of water at 20 C (J/(kg.K))
- Usage: Type
>>> flu = ConstantPropertyWater() >>> '%.2f' % flu.get_SpecificIsobaricHeatCapacity() '4184.05'
-
get_SpecificVolume
(**kwargs)¶ Returns the specific volume of water.
- Returns
Specific volume of water at 20 C (m3/kg)
- Usage: Type
>>> flu = ConstantPropertyWater() >>> '%.8f' % flu.get_SpecificVolume() '0.00100180'
-
modelicaModelPath
()¶ Returns the full path to the water model in the Buildings library.
- Returns
Full path to the water model in the Buildings library.
Note
The minimum temperature is set to -50 C to avoid the Modelica model from failing.
- Usage: Type
>>> flu = ConstantPropertyWater() >>> flu.modelicaModelPath() 'Modelica.Media.Water.ConstantPropertyLiquidWater(T_min=223.15)'
