Buildings.Experimental.DHC.Networks.BaseClasses.DifferenceEnthalpyFlowRate
Sensor outputting the difference between two enthalpy flow rates
Information
This model outputs the difference in enthalpy flow rate between two different streams: ΔḢ = ṁ1 h1 - ṁ2 h2. Optionally the time integral of this quantity can be output. The sensor is ideal, i.e., it does not influence the fluid.
By default
-
the parameter
tauis zero, so the specific enthalpy that is used to compute each enthalpy flow rate is computed in steady-state, - the medium is the same in both streams but the model allows for specifying two different media to represent for instance the gaseous and liquid state of the same substance.
Extends from Fluid.Interfaces.PartialFourPortInterface (Partial model transporting fluid between two ports without storing mass or energy).

Partial model for connecting an agent to a one-pipe distribution network
Information
Partial model to be used for connecting an agent (e.g. energy transfer station) to a one-pipe distribution network.
Two instances of a replaceable partial model are used to represent the pipes:
- One representing the main distribution pipe immediately upstream the connection.
- The other one representing both the supply and return lines of the connection. When replacing that model with a pipe model computing the pressure drop, one must double the length so that both the supply and return lines are accounted for.
