Thermal Duct

The ThermalDuct element performs a simple adiabatic pressure loss calculation. The pressure loss is calculated by the S_dP socket (or input by the user if this socket is empty). The duct maintains a constant enthalpy while the pressure loss is applied.

Usage

  • The duct element calculates a pressure drop.

  • The pressure drop can either be input or calculated from a subelement.

  • The heat loss can either be input or calculated from a subelement.

  • There are two option switches that determine where the dP and Q are calculated.
