get_fans_operating_point

PostProcessorIcepak.get_fans_operating_point(export_file=None, setup_name=None, time_step=None, variation=None)

Get the operating point of the fans in the design.

Parameters:

export_filestr, optional

Name of the file to save the operating point of the fans to. The default is None, in which case the filename is automatically generated.

setup_namestr, optional

Setup name to determine the operating point of the fans. The default is None, in which case the first available setup is used.

time_stepstr, optional

Time, with units, at which to determine the operating point of the fans. The default is None, in which case the first available timestep is used. This parameter is only relevant in transient simulations.

variationstr, optional

Design variation to determine the operating point of the fans from. 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 elements are the quantities with units describing the operating point of the fans. The fourth element is a dictionary with the names of the fan instances as keys and lists with volumetric flow rates and pressure rise floats associated with the operating point as values.
