Target Mass Flow Rate option for pressure outlets (not available for the
multiphase models)
z
Models an external exhaust fan or outlet vent with specified pressure rise / loss
coefficient and ambient (discharge) pressure and temperature.
Provides the ability to fix the mass flow rate on a pressure outlet (either constant or
via UDF hook)
Options to choose iteration method in TUI
Models an inlet vent / external intake fan with specified loss coefficient / pressure
rise, flow direction, and ambient (inlet) pressure and temperature.
