ADShaftConnectedPump1PhaseUserObject

Computes and caches flux and residual vectors for a 1-phase pump. Also computes pump torque and head which is passed to the connected shaft

A pump is a type of volume junction, a ADVolumeJunction1PhaseUserObject. As such its base contribution to the residual and Jacobian is set by this class. An additional contribution to the residual (and Jacobian) is described below:

The additional contribution to the residual of the energy equation is simply the power of the pump:

where is the friction torque, and is the rotation speed of the pump.

The additional contribution to the residual of the momentum equation is:

where is the conserved density, the local flow area, is the reference flow area, is the gravity vector, the pump head, and the outlet direction.

The pump head is computed as:

where is the rated rotation speed of the pump, the fluid density, the fluid velocity, the local area, is the rated flow rate, an adimensional pump head function and is the rated head of the pump.

The user object also provides APIs to retrieve the pump's:

  • hydraulic torque

  • friction torque

  • pump head
