get_fans_operating_point#

Icepak.get_fans_operating_point(export_file=None, setup_name=None, time_step=None, design_variation=None)[source]#

Get operating point of the fans in the design.

Parameters:

export_filestr, optional: Name of the file in which the fans’ operating point is saved. The default is None, in which case the filename is automatically generated.
setup_namestr, optional: Setup name from which to determine the fans’ operating point. The default is None, in which case the first available setup is used.
time_stepstr, optional: Time, with units, at which to determine the fans’ operating point. The default is None, in which case the first available timestep is used. This argument is only relevant in transient simulations.
design_variationstr, optional: Design variation from which to determine the fans’ operating point. The default is None, in which case the nominal variation is used.

Returns:

list: First element of the list is the csv filename, the second and third element of the list are the quantities with units describing the fan operating point, the fourth element contains the dictionary with the name of the fan instances as keys and list with volumetric flow rates and pressure rise floats associated with the operating points.
