Heat Transfer Networks
This section lists the heat networks generated by OpenModelica. The topologies are not differentiated, since OpenModelica can only create thermal networks to a limited extent. The individual pipes are mainly divided into 5 sections (sections = 5).
Delta
Triangular network.
- heat_transfer_delta()
- Returns
net - OpenModelica network converted to a pandapipes network
- Return type
pandapipesNet
- Example
>>> pandapipes.networks.simple_heat_transfer_networks.heat_transfer_delta()
Delta with 2 Sinks
Triangular network with two sinks.
- heat_transfer_delta_2sinks()
- Returns
net - OpenModelica network converted to a pandapipes network
- Return type
pandapipesNet
- Example
>>> pandapipes.networks.simple_heat_transfer_networks.heat_transfer_delta_2sinks()
Heights
Cross-shaped net with height differences between the individual nodes. (sections = 7, for each pipe)
- heat_transfer_heights()
- Returns
net - OpenModelica network converted to a pandapipes network
- Return type
pandapipesNet
- Example
>>> pandapipes.networks.simple_heat_transfer_networks.heat_transfer_heights()
One Pipe
One pipe with a sink.
- heat_transfer_one_pipe()
- Returns
net - OpenModelica network converted to a pandapipes network
- Return type
pandapipesNet
- Example
>>> pandapipes.networks.simple_heat_transfer_networks.heat_transfer_one_pipe()
One Source
Strand net with one source and one sink.
- heat_transfer_one_source()
- Returns
net - OpenModelica network converted to a pandapipes network
- Return type
pandapipesNet
- Example
>>> pandapipes.networks.simple_heat_transfer_networks.heat_transfer_one_source()
Section Variation
Mesh network with different values for “sections” of the four pipes (4, 7, 10, 16).
- heat_transfer_section_variation()
- Returns
net - OpenModelica network converted to a pandapipes network
- Return type
pandapipesNet
- Example
>>> pandapipes.networks.simple_heat_transfer_networks.heat_transfer_section_variation()
T-Cross
T-cross with two sinks.
- heat_transfer_t_cross()
- Returns
net - OpenModelica network converted to a pandapipes network
- Return type
pandapipesNet
- Example
>>> pandapipes.networks.simple_heat_transfer_networks.heat_transfer_t_cross()
Two Pipes
Strand net with two sinks.
- heat_transfer_two_pipes()
- Returns
net - OpenModelica network converted to a pandapipes network
- Return type
pandapipesNet
- Example
>>> pandapipes.networks.simple_heat_transfer_networks.heat_transfer_two_pipes()
