Linear Hydraulic Resistance - Simulate hydraulic pipeline with linear resistance losses
Library
Hydraulic Elements
Description
The Linear Hydraulic Resistance block represents a hydraulic
resistance where pressure loss is directly proportional to flow rate.
This block can be useful at preliminary stages of development, or
as a powerful means to speed up the simulation, especially if the
flow rate varies insignificantly with respect to the operating point.
Connections A and B are conserving hydraulic ports associated
with the block inlet and outlet, respectively.
The block positive direction is from port A to port B. This
means that the flow rate is positive if fluid flows from A to B, and
the pressure loss is determined as
.
Dialog Box and Parameters
- Resistance
The linear resistance coefficient. The default value is 10e9 Pa/(m^3/s).
Ports
The block has the following ports:
- A
Hydraulic conserving port associated with the resistance inlet.
- B
Hydraulic conserving port associated with the resistance outlet.
