Compressor#
The Compressor model is a PressureChanger, where the configuration is set so that the “compressor” option can only be True, and the default “thermodynamic_assumption” is “isentropic.” See the PressureChanger documentation for details.
Example#
The example below demonstrates the basic Compressor model usage:
import pyomo.environ as pyo
from idaes.core import FlowsheetBlock
from idaes.models.unit_models import Compressor
from idaes.models.properties import iapws95
m = pyo.ConcreteModel()
m.fs = FlowsheetBlock(dynamic=False)
m.fs.properties = iapws95.Iapws95ParameterBlock()
m.fs.unit = Compressor(property_package=m.fs.properties)
m.fs.unit.inlet.flow_mol[0].fix(100)
m.fs.unit.inlet.enth_mol[0].fix(4000)
m.fs.unit.inlet.pressure[0].fix(101325)
m.fs.unit.deltaP.fix(50000)
m.fs.unit.efficiency_isentropic.fix(0.9)
