Buildings.Media.GasesConstantDensity.MoistAir

Package with moist air model with constant density

Information

This is a medium model that is similar to Buildings.Media.PerfectGases.MoistAir, but the mass density is constant.

The use of a constant density avoids having pressure as a state variable in mixing volumes. Hence, fast transients introduced by a change in pressure are avoided. The drawback is that the dimensionality of the coupled nonlinear equation system is typically larger for flow networks.

As in Buildings.Media.PerfectGases.MoistAir, the specific enthalpy h and specific internal energy u are only a function of temperature T and species concentration X and all other provided medium quantities are constant.

Extends from Modelica.Media.Interfaces.PartialCondensingGases (Base class for mixtures of condensing and non-condensing gases).
