Infinite Flow Resistance (2P)

Perfectly insulated break in two-phase fluid network

Library

Two-Phase Fluid/Elements

  • Infinite Flow Resistance (2P) block

Description

The Infinite Flow Resistance (2P) block represents a break in a two-phase fluid network. There is no mass or energy flow through the break. However, the fluid properties, specified by the Two-Phase Fluid Properties (2P) block connected to the circuit, are the same on both sides of the break. Use this block to set the priority and initial target value to the differences in pressure and specific internal energy between port A and port B.

Variables

To set the priority and initial target values for the block variables prior to simulation, use the Initial Targets section in the block dialog box or Property Inspector. For more information, see Set Priority and Initial Target for Block Variables.

Nominal values provide a way to specify the expected magnitude of a variable in a model. Using system scaling based on nominal values increases the simulation robustness. Nominal values can come from different sources, one of which is the Nominal Values section in the block dialog box or Property Inspector. For more information, see Modify Nominal Values for a Block Variable.

Ports

The block has a pair of two-phase fluid conserving ports, A and B, representing branches of adjacent two-phase fluid networks.
