Information
This information is part of the Modelica Standard Library maintained by the Modelica Association.
This model describes a centrifugal pump (or a group of nParallel pumps) with prescribed speed, either fixed or provided by an external signal.
The model extends PartialPump
If the N_in input connector is wired, it provides rotational speed of the pumps (rpm); otherwise, a constant rotational speed equal to n_const (which can be different from N_nominal) is assumed.
