Fluid data
This document contains the variable classes for the fluid data.
- class GHEtool.VariableClasses.FluidData.FluidData(mfr: Optional[float] = None, k_f: Optional[float] = None, rho: Optional[float] = None, Cp: Optional[float] = None, mu: Optional[float] = None)
Bases:
BaseClassContains information regarding the fluid data of the borefield.
- Parameters
- mfrfloat
Mass flow rate per borehole [kg/s]
- k_ffloat
Thermal Conductivity of the fluid [W/mK]
- rhofloat
Density of the fluid [kg/m3]
- Cpfloat
Thermal capacity of the fluid [J/kgK]
- mufloat
Dynamic viscosity of the fluid [Pa/s]
- import_fluid_from_pygfunction(fluid_object: Fluid) None
This function loads a fluid object from pygfunction and imports it into GHEtool. Note that this object does not contain the mass flow rate!
- Parameters
- fluid_objectFluid object from pygfunction
- Returns
- None
- set_mass_flow_rate(mfr: float) None
This function sets the mass flow rate per borehole.
- Parameters
- mfrfluid
Mass flow rate per borehole [kg/s]
- Returns
- None
