Buildings.Fluid.Examples.Performance.PressureDrop

Package with various configurations of pressure drop models to analyze symbolic processing

Information

This package contains examples that demonstrate how parameter settings and boundary conditions can affect the number and size of algebraic loops.

Either a pressure difference or a mass flow rate is prescribed. The parameter from_dp is set to either true or false. These combinations are applied to a flow network consisting of parallel, series or parallel-series components. By looking at the size of the nonlinear equations between the example and its counter-part that ends in Optimised, one can see whether the symbolic processing optimally converts the system of equations.
