.BuildingSystems.Fluid.Examples.Performance.Example1v2

Information

This example is an extension of BuildingSystems.Fluid.Examples.Performance.Example1v1 and demonstrates the use of mixing volumes for decoupling the algebraic loop that solves for the enthalpy of the system.

Example1v1:

Sizes of nonlinear systems of equations: {6, 21, 46}

Sizes after manipulation of the nonlinear systems: {1, 19, 22}

Example1v2 using mixing volumes:

Sizes of nonlinear systems of equations: {6, 21, 4}

Sizes after manipulation of the nonlinear systems: {1, 19, 1}

See Jorissen et al. (2015) for a discussion.
