.Modelica.Fluid.Fittings.BaseClasses.QuadraticTurbulent.pressureLoss_m_flow_totalPressure

Information

Compute pressure drop from constant loss factor and mass flow rate (dp = f(m_flow)). For small mass flow rates(|m_flow| < m_flow_small), the characteristic is approximated by a polynomial in order to have a finite derivative at zero mass flow rate.
