Information

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

Simple fan resp. pump where characteristic is dependent on shaft's speed,
torque * speed = pressure increase * volume flow (without losses)
Pressure increase versus volume flow is defined by a linear function, from dp0(V_flow=0) to V_flow0(dp=0).
The axis intersections vary with speed as follows:

  • dp prop. speed^2
  • V_flow prop. speed

Coolant's temperature and enthalpy flow are not affected.
Setting parameter m (mass of medium within fan/pump) to zero leads to negligence of temperature transient cv*m*der(T).
Thermodynamic equations are defined by BaseClasses.TwoPort.
