COMPRESSIBLE FLOW
Solving Compressible Flow Problems Using Electrical Analogy
This program solves problems involving compressible pipe flow with heat transfer through the use of an electrical analogy. To adapt the container data for program usage, the container surfaces are assigned node numbers. To balance the system to a specified pressure drop, one of two compressible flow solutions can be used: the flow can be fixed and the orifice diameters adjusted or orifice sizes fixed and the flow corrected. Solving for manifold design parameters, the fixed flow routine is first used to determine approximate orifice sizes and flow rates. Container inlet temperature values are compared with the required temperatures and final adjustments are made on the variable flow routine to yield design values for orifice size, flow and temperature.
