Template:Pump2 Setting Data Section
|- | On || Tick Box || This allows the user to disable the Pump. If the Pump is Off then the pressure boost from the Pump = 0. |- | EquipID || Input || This field is optional. The user may type in an unique ID for the Pump. |- | valign="top" rowspan="2" | ProcessType || Isentropic Process || Pressure change across the pump is a nominally isentropic process. |- | Isothermal Process || Pressure change across the pump is a nominally isothermal process. |- | IsentropicEfficiency / EffIsen || Input || Visible only if ProcessType selected is Isentropic Process - Ratio of enthalpy change for isentropic process to actual enthalpy change. |- | IsothermalEfficiency / EffIso || Input || Visible only if ProcessType selected is Isothermal Process - Ratio of enthalpy change for isothermal process to actual enthalpy change. |- | colspan="3" font style="background: #ebebeb" | There are two different operating modes for the Pump:
- Simple Pumps - these are fixed speed pumps and the user has no control over the speed.
- Controlled Pumps - the Pump speed may be changed by the user and the pressure boost changes based on the Pump speed.
|- | valign="top" rowspan="7" | OpType || Fixed Boost (Simple) || The user may specify a fixed pressure boost from the Pump. |- | Fixed ExitP (Simple) || The user may specify a fixed exit pressure from the Pump. |- | Fixed AtmosP (Simple) || The exit pressure from the Pump = atmospheric pressure. |- | Boost Prop to mass Flow (Simple) || The pressure boost from the Pump will be proportional to the mass flow through the Pump.
