Information

This information is part of the Modelica Standard Library maintained by the Modelica Association.

Base class for heat transfer models of flow devices.

The geometry is specified in the interface with the surfaceAreas[n], the roughnesses[n] and the lengths[n] along the flow path. Moreover the fluid flow is characterized for different types of devices by the characteristic dimensions[n+1] and the average velocities vs[n+1] of fluid flow. See Pipes.BaseClasses.CharacteristicNumbers.ReynoldsNumber for example definitions.
