Buildings.Obsolete.Fluid.HeatExchangers.CoolingTowers.Examples.Merkel

Test model for cooling tower using the Merkel theory

Buildings.Obsolete.Fluid.HeatExchangers.CoolingTowers.Examples.Merkel

Information

This example illustrates the use of the cooling tower model Buildings.Obsolete.Fluid.HeatExchangers.CoolingTowers.Merkel. Heat is injected into the volume vol. An on/off controller switches the cooling loop water pump on or off based on the temperature of this volume. The cooling tower outlet temperature is controlled to track a fixed temperature.

Extends from Modelica.Icons.Example (Icon for runnable examples), BaseClasses.PartialStaticTwoPortCoolingTower (Base class for test models of cooling towers).
