Buildings.Media.Water
Package with model for liquid water with constant density
Information
This medium package models liquid water.
The mass density is computed using a constant value of 995.586 kg/s. For a medium model in which the density is a function of temperature, use Buildings.Media.Specialized.Water.TemperatureDependentDensity which may have considerably higher computing time.
For the specific heat capacities at constant pressure and at constant volume, a constant value of 4184 J/(kg K), which corresponds to 20°C is used. The figure below shows the relative error of the specific heat capacity that is introduced by this simplification.
 
The enthalpy is computed using the convention that h=0 if T=0 °C.
Limitations
Density, specific heat capacity, thermal conductivity and viscosity are constant. Water is modeled as an incompressible liquid. There are no phase changes.
