Information

This model describes laminar flow. The flow is given by the equation:



where
:Mass flow rate
:Fluid density
G:Conductance of the restriction
:Pressure difference between ports a and b

Limitations

This model is only valid for laminar flow. No checks are made if it is physically possible that the flow through the component actually is laminar.
