Information

This information is part of the Modelica Standard Library maintained by the Modelica Association.

This component monitors the mass flow rate flowing from port_a to port_b. The sensor is ideal, i.e., it does not influence the fluid.

Parameters (3)

allowFlowReversal	Value: system.allowFlowReversal Type: Boolean Description: = true to allow flow reversal, false restricts to design direction (port_a -> port_b)
m_flow_nominal	Value: system.m_flow_nominal Type: MassFlowRate (kg/s) Description: Nominal value of m_flow = port_a.m_flow
m_flow_small	Value: if system.use_eps_Re then system.eps_m_flow * m_flow_nominal else system.m_flow_small Type: MassFlowRate (kg/s) Description: Regularization for bi-directional flow in the region \|m_flow\| < m_flow_small (m_flow_small > 0 required)

allowFlowReversal

Value: system.allowFlowReversal

Type: Boolean

Description: = true to allow flow reversal, false restricts to design direction (port_a -> port_b)

m_flow_nominal

Value: system.m_flow_nominal

Type: MassFlowRate (kg/s)
