Conclusions
- Models of standard thermodynamic cycles provided:
- all examples from ThermoSimT
- Otto, Diesel, Joule-Brayton, Ericsson
- using Simple Air, Dry Air, Steam/Water
- more complex models
- complete cycles using volume component
- heat exchanger
- accurate water model
- Construction of models:
- not trivial, needs a lot of finetuning
- for further models
- step-by-step description in paper
- ThermoDLR library:
- useful components and clear code
- some important elements still missing
- MultiSensor helpful
- robust foundation
- makes thermo-fluid modeling feasible to
non-experts
- but: it remains hard work!
