Hello Everyone, I seem to be having problems with flow mixers and diverters. The temperature exiting both flow mixers and diverters in my models are not right. This is a typical example of what is going on:
I start with 2 streams: Stream 1: Flow 1500 kg/hr, Temp: 50ºC Stream 2: Flow 75 kg/hr, Temp: 13ºC I then enter both streams into a flow converger, given the following single strea: Stream 3: Flow 1575, Temp: 30ºC (too low) I then split the stream in two with the flow diverter: Stream 4: Flow 787.5, Temp: 22ºC (shouldn't be dropping) Stream 5: Flow 787.5, Temp: 22ºC Each of the resulting streams (4 and 5) are each converged with other flows. However, for most of the simulation, streams 4 and 5 go through a converger but there are no other flows going in. i.e.: Stream 4 and 5 each go into a converger by themselves resulting in two more streams: Stream 6: Flow 787.5, Temp 18ºC (shouldn't be dropping) Stream 7: Flow 787.5, Temp 18ºC I looked at the code for the flow convergers and divergers, and they seem right, I don't know why the temperatures keep falling.
