Calculation of Heat Losses #591

Open panosz opened 7 months ago

panosz commented 7 months ago

I was wondering if there is a straightforward way of calculating the heat losses from the pipes after a pipeflow has been run.

Issue #423 suggests that this is not readily available in the pipe result table and proposes a formula for the calculation. However:

  1. It is not clear how to apply this formula to a pipe with multiple sections
  2. It is suggested that this calculation could be used for checking the correctness of the pipeflow result. Does this mean that there is an alternative way of getting the same result?
