Modelica.Fluid.Fittings.Bends.CurvedBendThis component models a curved bend in the overall flow regime for incompressible and single-phase fluid flow through circular cross sectional area considering surface roughness. It is expected that also compressible fluid flow can be handled up to about Ma = 0.3. It is assumed that neither mass nor energy is stored in this component. In the model basically a function is called to compute the mass flow rate as a function of pressure loss for a curved bend. Also the inverse of this function is defined, and a tool might use this inverse function instead, in order to avoid the solution of a nonlinear equation.
The details of the model are described in the documentation of the underlying function.
Extends from Modelica.Fluid.Dissipation.Utilities.Icons.PressureLoss.Bend_i (Icon for bend), Modelica.Fluid.Interfaces.PartialPressureLoss (Base flow model for pressure loss functions with the same area at port_a and at port_b).
