Value crosses are a part of your document (or model respectively)
They have no effect on your model or on the calculation results.
They are used to display result or specification values within a document. You can have a look at these values too, if you double click a component or pipeline.
A value cross has to be connected to a stream or component to display values.
If you do not change the default settings, a value cross, which is used to display the values of a stream, shows the four values pressure, temperature, enthalpy and mass flow . These four values are separated by two lines in the form of a cross.
For both streams and components, always the values from the active profile are displayed. If the active profile is changed, the values are then updated.
The following can be changed:
The content is arranged in a table with two columns. The positioning of the values can be changed by selecting one or more lines and dragging them to the desired position, both within a table and from one table into the other one.
There is a option to select the unit for each individual entry as well as a desired text variant, provided that several text variants exist for the unit. (e.g. kg/cm2 oder kg/cm²).
New entries can be added by opening a combo box by clicking on the text “Click to insert item…“.
Entries can be removed by means of the “Delete” key.
A combo box allows output of Material fractions accordance with
• Mass
• Mol
• mass (dry)
• mol (dry)
In value crosses, it is possible to use free texts. To use this feature, activate the style “text field” on the sheet “General”. In expressions in such a text field it is possible to use “$” as a shortcut for object that is connected to the value cross (e.g., “$.name” , “$.description”, “$.p”).
