BUG: effectivenessTable: wrong sign
const scalar secondaryOutletT =
Qt_/(secondaryMassFlowRate_*secondaryCp) + secondaryInletT_;
When the value of Qt
is positive, heat is lost from the secondary flow which causes a decrease in its temperature. However, in the given expression, the resulting outlet temperature is reported to be higher than the inlet temperature.
For neg/pos Qt
, the expression should be as follows:
const scalar secondaryOutletT =
secondaryInletT_ - Qt_/(secondaryMassFlowRate_*secondaryCp);
This bug is merely a report issue, and as such, simulation results should remain unaffected.
