base_bypass_pipe

Class for base bypass pipe

class BypassPipe(diameter=0.0372, depth=1.0, insulation_thickness=0.031, length=1.0, k_insulation=0.026, roughness=0.045, k_internal_pipe=45.0, internal_pipe_thickness=0.0052, k_casing=0.4, casing_thickness=0.0054, discretization=10, dz=0.0, **kwargs)

Bases: Pipe

Class for base BypassPipe component. By default, a pipe of DN32 and length 1m is used. BypassPipes are leaf components and assume steady-state conditions.

__init__(diameter=0.0372, depth=1.0, insulation_thickness=0.031, length=1.0, k_insulation=0.026, roughness=0.045, k_internal_pipe=45.0, internal_pipe_thickness=0.0052, k_casing=0.4, casing_thickness=0.0054, discretization=10, dz=0.0, **kwargs)

Parameters:

• diameter (float, optional) – Internal diameter of the pipe (m). The default is 0.0204.

• depth (float, optional) – Burying depth of the pipe (m). The default is 1.0.

• insulation_thickness (float, optional) – Thickness of the insulation layer (m). The default is 0.034.

• length (float, optional) – Length of the pipe (m). The default is 1.0.

• k_insulation (float, optional) – Thermal conductivity of insulation (W/(m·K)). The default is 0.026.

• roughness (float, optional) – Roughness of the internal pipe surface (mm). The default is 0.045.

• k_internal_pipe (float, optional) – Thermal conductivity of the pipe (W/(m·K)). The default is 45.0.

• internal_pipe_thickness (float, optional) – Thickness of the pipe (m). The default is 0.023.

• k_casing (float, optional) – Thermal conductivity of the casing (W/(m·K)). The default is 0.4.

• casing_thickness (float, optional) – Thickness of the casing (m). The default is 0.003.

• discretization (flaot, optional) – Length of segments for discretizing the pipe (m). The default is 10.

• dz (float, optional) – Altitude difference between the endpoints (m). The default is 0.

• line (str, optional) – Either “supply” or “return”. The default is None.

• **kwargs (dict) – Additional keyord arguments.

Return type:

None.
