Additional Analysis Controls

This Panel Consists of some useful additional analysis controls for solver.

Parameter Description
Thermal Network Activation Global control to Activate & Deactivate Thermal Networks
Shut-off Branches with closed elements

Controls Shut off branch mass flow rate calculations

0: Shuts off the branches with closed elements with zero flow (Default)

1: Shuts of Closed Valve, & let the branches to calculate flows

2: Allow Closed Valves to leak & let the branches to calculate flows

Sink Boundary Chamber Output

Options for Sink Chamber Output

0: Calculates based on flow Entering the chamber

1: Retain User inputs

Adiabatic Run Options

Controls/Modify Tube Wall T, HT etc

0: Run the Model with heat transfer (Default)

2: All Adiabatic (Disables all Heat transfer calculations)

Temperature Change due to gravity

Controls Temperature change due to Gravity & Pumping

0: No Change

1: Isentropic T Change

Max.Single Element Delta.T Controls the Maximum Temperature rise across the elements during iterations
Chamber Fluid Pressure Lower Limit (psi)

Chamber fluid pressure lower limit in psia.

Default = .001 psia for gas and -20,000 psia for liquid. A negative pressure for liquids indicates cavitation.

Chamber Fluid Pressure Upper Limit (psi)

Chamber fluid pressure upper limit in psia. Default = 20,000 psia for gas and liquid.

Chamber Fluid Temperature Lower Limit (deg F) Chamber fluid temperature lower limit in deg F. Default = -458 deg F for gas and liquid.
Chamber Fluid Temperature Lower Limit (deg F) Chamber fluid temperature upper limit in deg F. Default = 9999 deg F for gas and liquid.
