Modelica.Fluid.Dissipation

Functions for convective heat transfer and pressure loss characteristics

Information

Library description

This library contains convective heat transfer and pressure loss functions written in Modelica®. Generally the pressure loss calculations are based on incompressible fluids and total pressure difference. For devices with non changing cross sectional area, the calculated total pressure loss is equal to the static pressure difference. Geodetic pressure loss is not considered throughout the library. The functions supplied may be used separately.

The library is a non-commercial product of XRG Simulation GmbH.
