General

This component converts a simple fluid into a universal fluid.

The inlet stream, line 2, can be of the stream types: air, flue gas, steam, water (liquid), crude gas, oil, coal, gas, 2-phase liquid, 2-phase gaseous, salt water, user defined, universal fluid, binary mixture, thermo liquid and humid air.

Due to the different material tables, a difference in enthalpy can occur. The respective heat quantity will be displayed on the logic line “Heat Difference”, so the user can decide on its further utilization.

NCV for Fluid converter (Component 101)

Depending on the type of conversion, it may happen that libraries are involved that do not support a calculation of the NCV. To allow an NCV to be defined at the outlet anyway, the flag FSPECNCV permits the following variants:

FSPECNCV = 0: the NCV is calculated from the composition on all outlet lines. The NCV on the inlet line is irrelevant here,
FSPECNCV = 1: the NCV for the outlet lines if defined by the specification values NCV2, and in the case of Component 100 also NCV3.
FSPECNCV = 2: the NCV of the inlet line is transferred onto the outlet lines,
FSPECNCV = 3: this variant is required if an NCV is to be used that deviates from the NCV calculated from the composition, and when libraries with different NCV reference values are involved (like e.g. FDBR and NASA). Then the inlet line is checked as to how far the NCV specified on the line deviates from the one that would have been calculated from the composition. This difference is then added also on the outlet lines to the NCVs calculated from the composition there (see sample model Component_101.ebs).
