String indicating the flow device implemented.
Usually corresponds to the name of the derived class.
Reimplemented from FlowDevice.
Definition at line 25 of file flowControllers.h.
| void setMassFlowRate | ( | double | mdot | ) |
Set the fixed mass flow rate (kg/s) through the mass flow controller.
Definition at line 13 of file flowControllers.cpp.
|
inline |
Set the mass flow coefficient.
m has units of kg/s. The mass flow rate is computed as:
\[\dot{m} = m g(t) \]
where g is a function of time that is set by setTimeFunction. If no function is specified, the mass flow rate defaults to:
\[\dot{m} = m \]

Get the mass flow coefficient.

inlineoverridevirtual |
Set a function of pressure that is used in determining the mass flow rate through the device.
The evaluation of mass flow depends on the derived flow device class.

If a function of time has been specified for mdot, then update the stored mass flow rate.
Otherwise, mdot is a constant, and does not need updating.
