Function Modelica.​Fluid.​Dissipation.​PressureLoss.​Valve.​dp_severalGeometryOverall_DP
Pressure loss of valve | calculate pressure loss | several geometries | overall flow regime

Information

Calculation of pressure loss for a valve with different geometries at overall flow regime for incompressible and single-phase fluid flow in dependence of its opening.

Generally this function is numerically best used for the incompressible case , where the mass flow rate (m_flow) is known (as state variable) in the used model and the corresponding pressure loss (DP) has to be calculated. On the other hand the function dp_severalGeometryOverall_MFLOW is numerically best used for the compressible case if the pressure loss (dp) is known (out of pressures as state variable) and the mass flow rate (M_FLOW) has to be calculated. See more information.
