Parameters and Connectors

This component calculates the resulting output temperature at ▶PipeOut depending on the share of both input volume flows (▶PipeIn1, ▶PipeIn2). In addition, the valve itself also influences the output temperature through inertia and heat loss. This can be described in terms of its volume (VValve), the properties of the medium (cpMed, rhoMed) and heat losses (QlossRate, TAmbient).
