Simulation model

We make the following assumptions while constructing the simulation:

• The integration time step (dt) is 1E-5 seconds for the very fast dynamics of this system. You can set the time step on the Simulation Manager while in the Model Writing role.

  

• We use the segmented pipe model with 40 alternating pipe and wall elements.

• We model the outlet valve with a first order time constant (Tc) of 0.001 seconds.
