Details on Technical Data for the "Closed Manifold"

Information on the component data dialog for closed manifolds in the pipe network calculations for heating and cooling.

In this dialog, you define the technical data for closed manifolds.

You are here:

Project tab ➤ Disciplines: Heating/Cooling ➤ Analyse tab ➤ Components ➤ Technical data ... ➤ Component

Dialog “Technical Data” of a closed manifold in the LINEAR Solutions for Autodesk Revit

Name

Specifies the name of the component. You can modify the name. Clicking restores the default setting.

Zeta Inlet, Zeta Outlet

You can use these two input fields to adjust the resistance coefficients for the inlets and outlets of the component in order to map the pressure loss of the entire component. The default values are 1 for the inlet and 0.5 for the outlet.

Volume

Defines the capacity of the component in liters. This value will be used for the calculation of the system volume and for the dimensioning of the diaphragm expansion tank. If the volume is not entered, a warning appears during the calculation. This only occurs with a diaphragm expansion tank installed.
