Buildings.Fluid.FixedResistances.Examples.FlowJunction Buildings.Fluid.FixedResistances.Examples.FlowJunction

Test model for the three way splitter/mixer model

Buildings.Fluid.FixedResistances.Examples.FlowJunction

Information

This model demonstrates the use of the flow junction model for different flow directions. The example is configured such that the flow changes its direction in each flow leg between t = 0 seconds to t = 100 seconds.

Buildings.Fluid.FixedResistances.Examples.HydraulicDiameter Buildings.Fluid.FixedResistances.Examples.HydraulicDiameter

Buildings.Fluid.FixedResistances.Examples.Pipe Buildings.Fluid.FixedResistances.Examples.Pipe

Test of a pipe with multiple segments

Buildings.Fluid.FixedResistances.Examples.Pipe

Information

This model demonstrates the use of a pipe model. Both pipe models have the same mass flow rates and temperatures. Otherwise, the assert block would terminate the simulation.

The model on the top is connected to the ambient with one heat port, whereas the model at the bottom uses a vector of heat ports. Since they are all connected to the same temperature, they result in the same energy balance for the medium that flows through the pipe.
